The bound state generating functional is constructed in gauge theories. This construction is based on the Dirac Hamiltonian approach to gauge theories, the Poincar\'e group classification of fields and their nonlocal bound states, and the…
We study the temporal formation of quantum mechanical bound states within a one-dimensional attractive square-well potential, by first solving the time-independent Schroedinger equation and then study a time dependent system with an…
We solve the Faddeev bound-state equations for three particles with simple two-body nonlocal, separable potentials that yield a scattering length twice as large as a positive effective range, as indicated by some lattice QCD simulations.…
We consider a pair of parallel straight quantum waveguides coupled laterally through a window of a width $ \ell $ in the common boundary. We show that such a system has at least one bound state for any $ \ell>0 $. We find the corresponding…
We present an explicit and exact boost of a relativistic bound state defined at equal time of the constituents in the Born approximation (lowest order in hbar). To this end, we construct the Poincar\'e generators of QED and QCD in D=1+1…
Boundary conditions in confined geometries and measurement interactions in quantum mechanics share a common structural role: both select a preferred basis by determining which states are compatible with the imposed constraint. This paper…
The ballistic conductance through a device consisting of quantum wires, to which two stubs are attached laterally, is calculated assuming parabolic confining potentials of frequencies $\omega_w$ for the wires and $\omega_s$ for the stubs.…
I consider the frame dependence of QCD bound states in the presence of a confining, spatially constant gluon field energy density. The states are quantized at equal time in $A^0=0$ (temporal) gauge. I derive the frame dependence of the wave…
We study bound states of abelian gauge theory in D=1+1 dimensions using an equal-time, Poincare-covariant framework. The normalization of the linear confining potential is determined by a boundary condition in the solution of Gauss' law for…
I briefly review a systematic approximation scheme of QCD in which the quark model picture of hadrons emerges at lowest order. A linear A^0 potential arises if Gauss' law is solved with a non-vanishing boundary condition at spatial…
In this talk, we present a parity-preserving QED3 model with spontaneous breaking of a local U(1)-symmetry. The breaking is accomplished by a potential of the phi^6-type. It is shown that a net attractive interaction appears in the Moeller…
We discuss signatures of bound-state formation in finite volume via the Luscher finite size method. Assuming that the phase-shift formula in this method inherits all aspects of the quantum scattering theory, we may expect that the…
Scattering and bound states for a spinless particle in the background of a kink-like smooth step potential, added with a scalar uniform background, are considered with a general mixing of vector and scalar Lorentz structures. The problem is…
In quantum theory, bound states are described by eigenvalue equations, which usually cannot be solved exactly. However, some simple general theorems allow to derive rigorous statements about the corresponding solutions, that is, energy…
I consider the problem of computing the mass of a charged, gravitating particle in quantum field theory. It is shown how solving for the first quantized propagator of a particle in the presence of its own potentials reproduces the gauge and…
Starting from recently proposed bosonic mean field theories for fully and partially polarized quantum Hall states, we construct corresponding effective low energy theories for the edge modes. The requirements of gauge symmetry and…
Recently there has been considerable interest in the subject of molecules, which are weakly bound states of hadron pairs. The question of the existence of molecules is closely related to the more general problem of the determination of low…
We point out a misleading treatment in the literature regarding to bound-state solutions for the $s$-wave Klein-Gordon equation with exponential scalar and vector potentials. Following the appropriate procedure for an arbitrary mixing of…
In this work, we construct time-dependent potentials for the Schr\"odinger equation via supersymmetric quantum mechanics. The generated potentials have a quantum state with the property that after a particular threshold time $t_F$, when the…
There exists a simple relationship between a quantum-mechanical bound-state wave function and that of nearby scattering states, when the scattering energy is extrapolated to that of the bound state. This relationship is demonstrated…
