We generalize in this paper a theorem of Titchmarsh for the positivity of Fourier sine integrals. We apply then the theorem to derive simple conditions for the absence of positive energy bound states (bound states embedded in the continuum)…
We consider diatomic systems in which the kinetic energy of the electrons is treated in a simple relativistic model. The Born-Oppenheimer approximation is assumed. We investigate questions of stability, deducing bounds on the number $N$ of…
It is known that the overlap of two energy eigenstates in a decaying quantum system is bounded from above by a function of the energy detuning and the individual decay rates. This is usually traced back to the positive definiteness of an…
It is demonstrated that, if one remains in the framework of quantum mechanics taken alone, stationary states (energy eigenstates) are in no way singled out with respect to nonstationary ones, and moreover the stationary states would be…
We study two interacting quantum particles forming a bound state in $d$-dimensional free space, and constrain the particles in $k$ directions to $(0,\infty)^k \times \mathbb{R}^{d-k}$, with Neumann boundary conditions. First, we prove that…
For a system of N identical particles in a random pure state, there is a threshold k_0 = k_0(N) ~ N/5 such that two subsystems of k particles each typically share entanglement if k > k_0, and typically do not share entanglement if k < k_0.…
It is known that quantum systems yield non-exponential (power law) decay on long time scales, associated with continuum threshold effects contributing to the survival probability for a prepared initial state. For an open quantum system…
Universal properties of mass-imbalanced three-body systems in 2D are studied using zero-range interactions in momentum space. The dependence of the three-particle binding energy on the parameters (masses and two-body energies) is highly…
In a quantum system, different energy eigenstates have different properties or features, allowing us define a classifier to divide them into different groups. We find that the ratio of each type of energy eigenstates in an energy shell…
The equilibrium properties of particles adsorption is investigated theoretically. The model relies on a free energy formulation which allows to generalize the Maxwell-Boltzmann description to solutions for which the bulk volume fraction of…
Here we consider system of infinite number of particles where any particle cannot escape to infinity. We define what means escape of energy to infinity and apply this notion to the case when constant force provides energy to one of the…
In the framework of non-relativistic quantum mechanics and with the help of the Greens functions formalism we study the behavior of weakly bound states as they approach the continuum threshold. Through estimating the Green's function for…
Within the framework of nonrelativisitic quantum electrodynamics we consider a single nucleus and $N$ electrons coupled to the radiation field. Since the total momentum $P$ is conserved, the Hamiltonian $H$ admits a fiber decomposition with…
We show that bosons interacting via pair potentials with negative scattering length form bound states for a suitable number of particles. In other words, the absence of many-particle bound states of any kind implies the non-negativity of…
We give necessary conditions for the mixing problem in bipartite case, which are independent of eigenvalues and based on algebraic-geometric invariants of the bipartite states. One implication of our results is that for some special…
The Schr\"odinger equation for a charged particle in the field of a nonrelativistic electric quadrupole in two dimensions is known to be separable in spherical coordinates. We investigate the occurrence of bound states of negative energy…
We revisit the criterion of multi-particle entanglement based on the overlaps of a given quantum state $\rho$ with maximally entangled states. For a system of $m$ particles, each with $N$ distinct states, we prove that $\rho$ is…
