Motivated by the recent results in arXiv:1601.05679 about the quark-antiquark potential in $\mathcal N=4$ SYM, we reconsider the problem of computing the asymptotic weak-coupling expansion of the ground state energy of a certain class of 1d…
We study the renormalized Nelson model for a scalar matter particle in a continuous confining potential interacting with a possibly massless quantized radiation field. When the radiation field is massless we impose a mild infrared…
This is a survey of the basic results on the behavior of the number of the eigenvalues of a Schr\"odinger operator, lying below its essential spectrum. We discuss both fast decaying potentials, for which this behavior is semiclassical, and…
We prove a Feynman-Kac formula for Schrodinger operators with potentials V(x) that obey (for all \epsilon > 0): V(x) \geq - \epsilon |x|^2 - C_\epsilon. Even though e^{-tH} is an unbounded operator, any \phi, \psi \in L^2 with compact…

In this note, we prove weighted resolvent estimates for the semiclassical Schr\"odinger operator $-h^2 \Delta + V(x) : L^2(\mathbb{R}^n) \to L^2(\mathbb{R}^n)$, $n \neq 2$. The potential $V$ is real-valued, and assumed to either decay at…
We prove upper and lower bounds for the number of eigenvalues of semi-bounded Schr\"odinger operators in all spatial dimensions. As a corollary, we obtain two-sided estimates for the sum of the negative eigenvalues of atomic Hamiltonians…
We study spectra of Schr\"odinger operators on $\RR^d$. First we consider a pair of operators which differ by a compactly supported potential, as well as the corresponding semigroups. We prove almost exponential decay of the singular values…

We are concerned with a system of coupled Schr\"odinger equations $$-\Delta u_i + V_i(x)u_i = \partial_{u_i}F(x,u)\hbox{ on }\mathbb{R}^N,\,i=1,2,...,K,$$ where $F$ and $V_i$ are periodic in $x$ and $0\notin \sigma(-\Delta+V_i)$ for…
In this paper we study ground states of the following fractional Schr\"odinger equation (- \Delta)^{s} u + V(x) u = f(x, u) \, \mbox{ in } \, \R^{N}, u\in \H^{s}(\R^{N}) where $s\in (0,1)$, $N>2s$ and $f$ is a continuous function satisfying…
