The present work is a reply to the paper [1]. It is proven that the argumentation of Ref. [1] is inconsistent. The variational functional for the polaron ground state energy considered in Ref. [1] contains an incomplete recoil energy. Since…
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…
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…
The virial theorem for the translation-invariant theory of a polaron [3] is discussed. It is shown that, in [3], Tulub made a nonoptimal choice of variational parameters in the strong-coupling limit, which led to the violation of the virial…
The bipolaron are two electrons coupled to the elastic deformations of an ionic crystal. We study this system in the Fr\"{o}hlich approximation. If the Coulomb repulsion dominates, the lowest energy states are two well separated polarons.…
We show that objections raised by Chakraverty $et$ $al$ (Phys. Rev. Lett. 81, 433 (1998)) to the bipolaron model of superconducting cuprates are the result of an incorrect approximation for the bipolaron energy spectrum and misuse of the…
We summarize our recent results on the ground state energy of multi-polaron systems. In particular, we discuss stability and existence of the thermodynamic limit, and we discuss the absence of binding in the case of large Coulomb repulsion…
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…
The binding of polarons, or its absence, is an old and subtle topic. After defining the model we state some recent theorems of ours. First, the transition from many-body collapse to the existence of a thermodynamic limit for N polarons…
The paper is a reply to the arguments adduced by the authors of Ref. [arXiv:1204.4142] against the results obtained by the author in Refs. [6,7]. It is shown that these arguments are based on the erroneous approach made in Ref.…
A translation invariant N-polaron system is investigated at arbitrary electron-phonon coupling strength, using a variational principle for path integrals for identical particles. An upper bound for the ground state energy is found as a…
The properties of a Bose gas of translation-invariant (TI) bipolarons analogous to Cooper pairs are considered. As in the BCS theory, the description of a TI-bipolaron gas is based on the electron-phonon interaction and Froehlich…
Large-radius translation invariant (TI) bipolarons are considered in a one-dimensional Holstein molecular chain. Criteria of their stability are obtained. The energy of a translation invariant bipolaron is shown to be lower than that of a…
The last unsolved problem about the many-polaron system, in the Pekar-Tomasevich approximation, is the case of bosons with the electron-electron Coulomb repulsion of strength exactly 1 (the 'neutral case'). We prove that the ground state…
Employing unbiased sign-problem-free quantum Monte Carlo, we investigate the effects of long-range Coulomb forces on BEC of bipolarons using a model of bond phonon-modulated electron hopping. In absence of long-range repulsion, this model…
A translation-invariant (TI) bipolaron theory of superconductivity based, like Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer theory, on Fr\"ohlich Hamiltonian is presented. Here the role of Cooper pairs belongs to TI bipolarons which are pairs of spatially…
The polaron has been of interest in condensed matter theory and field theory for about half a century, especially the limit of large coupling constant. It was not until 1983, however, that a proof of the asymptotic formula for the ground…
We demonstrate that the analytic solution for the set of energy eigenvalues of the semi-relativistic Coulomb problem reported by B. and L. Durand is in clear conflict with an upper bound on the ground-state energy level derived by some…
The BCS theory has been extended by us to the strong-coupling regime where carriers are small lattice polarons and bipolarons. Here I review the multi-polaron strong-coupling theory of superconductivity. Attractive electron correlations,…
High-temperature superconductivity (HTS) of cuprates represents a challenge to the conventional theory. Here I review a multi-polaron approach to the problem based on our extension of the BCS theory to the strong-coupling regime. Since…
