Abstract

We consider a wide class of the two-particle Schr\"{o}dinger operators Hμ(k)=H0(k)+μV,μ>0,H_{\mu}(k)=H_{0}(k)+\mu V, \,\mu>0, with a fixed two-particle quasi-momentum kk in the dd -dimensional torus Td\mathbb{T}^d, associated to the Bose-Hubbard hamiltonian HμH_{\mu} of a system of two identical quantum-mechanical particles (bosons) on the dd- dimensional hypercubic lattice Z\mathbb{Z}% ^d interacting via short-range pair potentials. We study the existence of eigenvalues of Hμ(k)H_{\mu}(k) below the threshold of the essential spectrum depending on the interaction energy μ>0\mu>0 and the quasi-momentum kTdk\in \mathbb{T}^d of particles. We prove that the threshold (bottom of the essential spectrum), as a singular point (a threshold resonance or a threshold eigenvalue), creates eigenvalues below the essential spectrum under perturbations of both the coupling constant μ>0\mu>0 and the quasi-momentum kk of the particles. Moreover, we show that if the threshold is a regular point, then it does not create any eigenvalues under small perturbations of the coupling constant μ>0\mu>0 and the quasi-momentum kk.
