A many-body wave function is approximated by a product of two functions: the wave function $\phi$ depending on the particle coordinates and the function $\chi$ depending only on the value of interparticle interaction potential. For the…

A superspace version of the Schr\"odinger equation with a delta potential is studied using Fourier analysis. An explicit expression for the energy of the single bound state is found as a function of the super-dimension M in case M is…

The threshold behaviour of negative eigenvalues for Schr\"{o}dinger operators of the type $$ H_\lambda=-\frac{d^2}{dx^2}+U(x)+\lambda\alpha_\lambda V(\alpha_\lambda x) $$ is considered. The potentials $U$ and $V$ are real-valued bounded…

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 the problem of estimating the ground state energy of quantum $p$-local spin glass random Hamiltonians, the quantum analogues of widely studied classical spin glass models. Our main result shows that the maximum energy achievable…

We discuss the derivation of an equivalent \textit{l}-independent polarization potential for use in the optical Schr\"{o}dinger equation that describes the elastic scattering of heavy ions. Three diffferent methods are used for this…

We present an extension of the classical De Giorgi class, and then we show that functions in this new class are locally bounded and locally H\"older continuous. Some applications are given. As a first application, we give a regularity…

We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for the boundedness of the relativistic Schr\"odinger operator $\mathcal{H} = \sqrt{-\Delta} + Q$ from the Sobolev space $W^{1/2}_2 (\R^n)$ to its dual $W^{-1/2}_2 (\R^n)$, for an arbitrary…

We study the classical dynamics of a charged particle in two dimensions, under the influence of a perpendicular magnetic and an in-plane electric field. We prove the surprising fact that there is a finite region in phase space that…

A new approximation scheme to the centrifugal term is proposed to obtain the $l\neq 0$ solutions of the Schr\"{o}dinger equation with the Manning-Rosen potential. We also find the corresponding normalized wave functions in terms of the…

Quantum entanglement is considered, by and large, to be a very delicate and non-robust phenomenon that is very hard to maintain in the presence of noise, or non-zero temperatures. In recent years however, and motivated, in part, by a quest…

The ground state energy of a system of electrons and nuclei is proven to be a variational functional of the conditional electronic density $n_R(\mathbf{r})$, the nuclear wavefunction $\chi(R)$ and an induced vector potential $A_{\mu}(R)$…

We study the spectrum of the spinless-Salpeter Hamiltonian H = \beta \sqrt{m^2 + p^2} + V(r), where V(r) is an attractive central potential in three dimensions. If V(r) is a convex transformation of the Coulomb potential -1/r and a concave…

Consider operators $L_{V}:=\Delta + V$ in a bounded smooth domain $D$ in $R^N$. Assume that $V\in C^1(D)$ and $V$ may blow up at the boundary at most as $1/\delta^2$ where $\delta$ denotes distance to the boundary. Assume also that $L_{V}$…

Recent investigations by Bender and Boettcher (Phys. Rev. Lett 80, 5243 (1998)) and Mezincescu (J. Phys. A. 33, 4911 (2000)) have argued that the discrete spectrum of the non-hermitian potential $V(x) = -ix^3$ should be real. We give…

For a Hamiltonian ${\hat H}$ containing a position-dependent (disordered) potential, we introduce a sequence of landscape functions $u_n(\vec{r})$ obeying ${\hat H} u_n(\vec{r}) = u_{n-1}(\vec{r})$ with $u_0(\vec{r}) = 1$. For $n \to…

We consider the higher order Schr\"odinger operator $H=(-\Delta)^m+V(x)$ in $n$ dimensions with real-valued potential $V$ when $n>2m$, $m\in \mathbb N$ when $H$ has a threshold eigenvalue. We adapt our recent results for $m\geq 1$ when…

We study the propagation properties of abstract linear Schr\"odinger equations of the form $i\partial_t\psi = H_0\psi+V(t)\psi$, where $H_0$ is a self-adjoint operator and $V(t)$ a time-dependent potential. We present explicit sufficient…
