We strengthen and generalise a result of Kirsch and Simon on the behaviour of the function $N_L(E)$, the number of bound states of the operator $L = \Delta+V$ in $\R^d$ below $-E$. Here $V$ is a bounded potential behaving asymptotically…

We present a simple Bellman function proof of a bilinear estimate for elliptic operators in divergence form with real coefficients and with nonnegative potentials. The constants are dimension-free. The $p$-range of applicability of this…
Let $P(D)$ be the Laplacian $\Delta,$ or the wave operator $\square$. The following type of Carleman estimate is known to be true on a certain range of $p,q$: \[ \|e^{v\cdot x}u\|_{L^q(\mathbb{R}^d)} \le C\|e^{v\cdot…
