Properties of the energy-momentum relation for the Fr\"ohlich polaron are of continuing interest, especially for large values of the coupling constant. By combining spectral theory with the available results on the central limit theorem for…
We study a class of polaron-type Hamiltonians with sufficiently regular form factor in the interaction term. We investigate the strong-coupling limit of the model, and prove suitable bounds on the ground state energy as a function of the…
We investigate the Fr\"ohlich polaron model on a three-dimensional torus, and give a proof of the second-order quantum corrections to its ground-state energy in the strong-coupling limit. Compared to previous work in the confined case, the…
We investigate the ground state properties of the bipolaron coupled to quantum dispersive optical phonons in the one-dimensional Holstein-Hubbard model. We concentrate on the interplay between the phonon dispersion and the Coulomb repulsion…
We use the Momentum Average approximation (MA) to study the ground-state properties of strongly bound bipolarons in the double-well electron-phonon (el-ph) coupling model, which describes certain intercalated lattices where the linear term…
A polaron is an electron interacting with a polar crystal, which is able to form a bound state by using the distortions of the crystal induced by its own density of charge. In this paper we derive Pekar's famous continuous model for…
We study the Fr\"ohlich polaron model in $\mathbb{R}^3$, and establish the subleading term in the strong coupling asymptotics of its ground state energy, corresponding to the quantum corrections to the classical energy determined by the…
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…
A detailed consideration is given to the translation-invariant theory of Tulub polaron constructed without the use of Pekar ansatz. A fundamental result of the theory is that the value of the polaron energy is lower than that obtained on…
Starting from the shell structure in atoms and the significant correlation within electron pairs, we distinguish the exchange-correlation effects between two electrons of opposite spins occupying the same orbital from the average…
Following a resurgence of interest in dilute superconductivity in polar semiconductors, we perform a variational calculation to probe the existence of Fr{\"o}hlich bipolarons in these materials. Our solution is capable of interpolating…
The Rice-Sneddon model for BaBiO$_3$ is a nice model Hamiltonian for considering the properties of polarons and bipolarons in a three-dimensional oxide crystal. We use exact diagonalization methods on finite samples to study the stability…
We study the dynamics of large polarons described by the Froehlich Hamiltonian in the limit of strong coupling. The initial conditions are (perturbations of) product states of an electron wave function and a phonon coherent state, as…
We numerically and analytically calculate the properties of the bipolaron in an extended Hubbard Holstein model, which has a longer range electron-phonon coupling like the Fr\" ohlich model. In the strong coupling regime, the effective mass…
We show that the ground state of a polaron in a homogeneous magnetic field $B$ and its energy are described by an effective one-dimensional minimization problem in the limit $B\to\infty$. This holds both in the linear Fr\"ohlich and in the…
It is shown that the bipolaron ground state is described by a delocalized wave function. For a two-parameter wave function, the lowest variation estimate of the ground state energy in the strong coupling limit is found to be $E=- 0,414125…
We consider the quasi-classical limit of Nelson-type regularized polaron models describing a particle interacting with a quantized bosonic field. We break translation-invariance by adding an attractive external potential decaying at…
It is widely accepted that phonon-mediated high-temperature superconductivity is impossible at ambient pressure, because of the very large effective masses of polarons/bipolarons at strong electron-phonon coupling. Here we challenge this…
Bipolaron energies are calculated as a function of wave vector by a variational method of Gurari appropriate for weak or intermediate coupling strengths, for a model with electron-phonon interactions independent of phonon wave vectors and a…
The binding of polarons, or its absence, is an old and subtle topic. Here we prove two things rigorously. First, the transition from many-body collapse to the existence of a thermodynamic limit for N polarons occurs precisely at U=2\alpha,…
