We prove a general theorem about the self-adjointness and domain of Pauli-Fierz type Hamiltonians. Our proof is based on commutator arguments which allow us to treat fields with non-commuting components. As a corollary it follows that the domain of the Hamiltonian of non-relativistic QED with Coulomb interactions is independent of the coupling constant.
A new variant of the Feshbach map, called smooth Feshbach map, has been introduced recently by Bach et al., in connection with the renormalization analysis of non-relativistic quantum electrodynamics. We analyze and clarify its algebraic and analytic properties, and we generalize it to non-selfadjoint partition operators $χ$ and $\chib$.
We consider the supersymmetric quantum mechanical system which is obtained by dimensionally reducing d=6, N=1 supersymmetric gauge theory with gauge group U(1) and a single charged hypermultiplet. Using the deformation method and ideas introduced by Porrati and Rozenberg, we present a detailed proof of the existence of a normalizable ground state for this system.
We derive the first six coefficients of the heat kernel expansion for the electromagnetic field in a cavity by relating it to the expansion for the Laplace operator acting on forms. As an application we verify that the electromagnetic Casimir energy is finite.
We give a simple - straightforward and rigorous - derivation that when the eigenvalues of one of the $d=9 (5,3,2)$ matrices in the SU(N) invariant supersymmetric matrix model become large (and well separated from each other) the ground-state wavefunction (resp. asymptotic zero-energy solution of the corresponding differential equation) factorizes, for all $N>1$, into a product of supersymmetric harmonic oscillator wavefunctions (involving the `off-diagonal' degrees of freedom) and a wavefunction $ψ$ that is annihilated by the free supercharge formed out of all `diagonal' (Cartan sub-algebra) degrees of freedom.
We define an operator which for odd-dimensional compact gauge group furnishes unitary equivalence of the bosonic and fermionic sector in the supersymmetric quantum-mechanical matrix model obtained by dimensional reduction from 3-dimensional supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory.
We show that the positive supersymmetric matrix-valued differential operator H={p_x}^2 + {p_y}^2 + x^2y^2 + xσ_3 + yσ_1 has no zero modes, i.e., H ψ= 0 implies ψ=0.
We derive the power law decay, and asymptotic form, of SU(2) x Spin(d) invariant wave-functions which are zero-modes of all s_d=2(d-1) supercharges of reduced (d+1)-dimensional supersymmetric SU(2) Yang Mills theory, resp. of the SU(2)-matrix model related to supermembranes in d+2 dimensions.
