We resolve several longstanding problems concerning the stability and the absence of multi-particle binding for N\geq 2 polarons. Fr\"ohlich's 1937 polaron model describes non-relativistic particles interacting with a scalar quantized field…
We consider the confined Fr\"ohlich polaron and establish an asymptotic series for the low-energy eigenvalues in negative powers of the coupling constant. The coefficients of the series are derived through a two-fold perturbation approach,…
We revise a previous result about the Fr\"ohlich dynamics in the strong coupling limit obtained in [Gri17]. In the latter it was shown that the Fr\"ohlich time evolution applied to the initial state $\varphi_0 \otimes \xi_\alpha$, where…
We use a non-perturbative renormalization group approach to develop a unified picture of the Bose polaron problem, where a mobile impurity is strongly interacting with a surrounding Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC). A detailed theoretical…
The polaron model of H. Fr\"ohlich describes an electron coupled to the quantized longitudinal optical modes of a polar crystal. In the strong-coupling limit one expects that the phonon modes may be treated classically, which leads to a…
We analyze the ground state energy for $N$ identical fermions in a two-dimensional box of volume $L^2$ interacting with an external point scatterer. Since the point scatterer can be considered as an impurity particle of infinite mass, this…

The one-dimensional optical polaron is treated on the basis of the perturbation theory in the weak coupling limit. A special matrix diagrammatic technique is developed. It is shown how to evaluate all terms of the perturbation theory for…
We consider relativistic many-particle operators which - according to Brown and Ravenhall - describe the electronic states of heavy atoms. Their ground state energy is investigated in the limit of large nuclear charge and velocity of light.…
The virial theorem for the translation-invariant theory of a polaron [3] is discussed. It is shown that, in [3], Tulub made a nonoptimal choice of variational parameters in the strong-coupling limit, which led to the violation of the virial…
The description of an impurity atom in a Bose-Einstein condensate can be cast in the form of Frohlich's polaron Hamiltonian, where the Bogoliubov excitations play the role of the phonons. An expression for the corresponding polaronic…
We consider the Fr\"ohlich model of a polaron, and show that its effective mass diverges in the strong coupling limit.
For many physical quantities, theory supplies weak- and strong-coupling expansions of the types $\sum a_n \alpha ^n$ and $ \alpha ^p\sum b_n (\alpha^{-2/q) ^n$, respectively. Either or both of these may have a zero radius of convergence. We…
We investigate the ground state energy of an electron coupled to a photon field. First, we regard the self-energy of a free electron, which we describe by the Pauli-Fierz Hamiltonian. We show that, in the case of small values of the…
The best quadratic approximation to the retarded polaron action due to Adamowski {\it et al.} and Saitoh is investigated numerically for a wide range of coupling constants. The non-linear variational equations are solved iteratively with an…
The paper is devoted to the effects of superconducting pairing in small metallic grains. It turns out that at strong superconducting coupling and in the limit of large Thouless conductance one can explicitly determine the low energy…
We study the ground state energy of a system of N fermions with two spin states in the large N limit. The particles are placed in an inhomogeneous trapping potential and interact via scaled interactions. We study a dilute limit where the…
The weak coupling many-polaron formalism is applied to the case of the polaronic system consisting of impurities in a Bose-Einstein condensate. This allows to investigate the groundstate properties and the response of the system to Bragg…
The continuous progress in fabricating low-dimensional systems with large spin-orbit couplings has reached a point in which nowadays materials may display spin-orbit splitting energies ranging from a few to hundreds of meV. This situation…
