On a family of finitely many point interaction Hamiltonians free of ultraviolet pathologies
We re-investigate the entire family of many center point interaction Hamiltonians. Under the assumption of exchange symmetry with respect to the point positions, we show that a large sub-family of point interaction Hamiltonian operators does not become either singular or trivial when the positions of two or more scattering centers tend to coincide. In this sense, they appear to be renormalized by default as opposed to the point interaction Hamiltonians usually considered in the literature. Functions in their domains satisfy regularized boundary conditions which turn out to be very similar to the ones proposed recently in many-body quantum mechanics to define three-particle system Hamiltonians with contact interactions bounded from below. In the two-center case, we study the behavior of the negative eigenvalues as a function of the center distance. The result is used to analyze a formal Born-Oppenheimer approximation of a three-particle system with two heavy bosons and one light particle. We demonstrate that this simplified model describes a stable system (no ‘fall to the center’ problem is present). Furthermore, in the unitary limit, the energy spectrum is characterized by an infinite sequence of negative energy eigenvalues accumulating at zero according to the geometrical Efimov law
The Laplacian in regions with many small obstacles: fluctuations around the limit operator
Rigorous Derivation of the Cubic NLS in Dimension One
We derive rigorously the one-dimensional cubic nonlinear Schr ̈odinger equation from
a many-body quantum dynamics. The interaction potential is rescaled through a weakcoupling
limit together with a short-range one. We start from a factorized initial state,
and prove propagation of chaos with the usual two-step procedure: in the former step,
convergence of the solution of the BBGKY hierarchy associated to the many-body
quantum system to a solution of the BBGKY hierarchy obtained from the cubic NLS
by factorization is proven; in the latter, we show the uniqueness for the solution of the
infinite BBGKY hierarchy
