We consider elastic flows of closed curves in Euclidean space. We obtain optimal energy thresholds below which elastic flows preserve embeddedness of initial curves for all time. The obtained thresholds take different values between…
We analyze the application of the "tridiagonal representation approach" (TRA) to the Schr\"{o}dinger equation for some simple, exactly-solvable, quantum-mechanical models. In the case of the Kratzer-Fues potential the mathematical reasoning…
We study numerically the existence and character of bound states for positive and negative point charges shielded by the response of a two-dimensional homogeneous electron gas. The problem is related to many physical situations and has…
The Schrodinger equation has been considered to be a postulate of quantum physics, but it is also perceived and derived heuristically as the quantum equivalent of the classical energy relation. We indicate that the Schrodinger equation…
We prove a new lower bound on the indirect Coulomb energy in quantum mechanics in terms of the single particle density of the system. The new universal lower bound is an alternative to the classical Lieb--Oxford bound (with a smaller…
We consider a Bose gas in spatial dimension $n>3$ with a repulsive, radially symmetric two-body potential $V$. In the limit of low density $\rho$, the ground state energy per particle in the thermodynamic limit is shown to be $(n-2)|\mathbb…
We study the spherical quantum pseudodots in the Schrodinger equation using the pseudo-harmonic plus harmonic oscillator potentials considering the effect of the external electric and magnetic fields. The finite energy levels and the wave…
We study the problem of minimizing or maximizing the fundamental spectral gap of Schr\"odinger operators on metric graphs with either a convex potential or a ``single-well'' potential on an appropriate specified subset. (In the case of…
We prove a lower bound for the modulus of the amplitude for a two-body process at large scattering angle. This is based on the interplay of the analyticity of the amplitude and the positivity properties of its absorptive part. The…
The matrix Schroedinger equation with a selfadjoint matrix potential is considered on the half line with the most general selfadjoint boundary condition at the origin. When the matrix potential is integrable and has a second moment, it is…
An analysis is made of the relation between quantum theory and classical mechanics, in the context of the limit $\hbar \to 0$. Several ways in which this limit may be performed are considered. It is shown that Schr\"odinger's equation for a…
We derive general lower energy bounds for the ground state energy of any translationally invariant quantum lattice Hamiltonian. The bounds are given by the ground state energy of renormalized Hamiltonians on finite clusters.
Gravity is the weakest of all four known forces in the universe. Quantum states of an elementary particle due to such a weak field is certainly very shallow and would therefore be an experimental challenge to detect. Recently an…
For an understanding of a heat engine working in the microscopic scale, it is often necessary to estimate the amount of reversible work extracted by isothermal expansion of the quantum gas used as its working substance. We consider an…
Quantum weak energy inequalities (QWEI) provide state-independent lower bounds on averages of the renormalised energy density of a quantum field. We derive QWEIs for the electromagnetic and massive spin-one fields in globally hyperbolic…
We give a sharp upper bound on the vanishing order of solutions to Schr\"odinger equation, in the case that the potential is of class $\mathcal{C}^1$ on a smooth compact manifold.
It is well known that the ground state energy of a three dimensional dilute Bose gas in the thermodynamic limit is $E=4\pi a \rho N$ when the particles interact via a non-negative, finite range, symmetric, two-body potential. Here, $N$ is…
We show that it is possible to measure Schrodinger wave of a single quantum system. This provides a strong argument for associating physical reality with the quantum state of a single system, and challenges the usual assumption that the…
We consider the dynamics generated by the Schroedinger operator $H=-{1/2}\Delta + V(x) + W(\epsi x)$, where $V$ is a lattice periodic potential and $W$ an external potential which varies slowly on the scale set by the lattice spacing. We…
We consider the bound-state energy levels of a spin-1/2 fermion in the gravitational field of a near-black hole object. In the limit that the metric of the body becomes singular, all binding energies tend to the rest-mass energy (i.e. total…
