Nonrelativistic Lee model in three dimensional Riemannian manifolds

In this work, we construct the non-relativistic Lee model on some class of three dimensional Riemannian manifolds by following a novel approach introduced by S. G. Rajeev hep-th/9902025. This approach together with the help of heat kernel allows us to perform the renormalization non-perturbatively and explicitly. For completeness, we show that the ground state energy is bounded from below for different classes of manifolds, using the upper bound estimates on the heat kernel. Finally, we apply a kind of mean field approximation to the model for compact and non-compact manifolds separately and discover that the ground state energy grows linearly with the number of bosons n.

Finitely Many Dirac-Delta Interactions on Riemannian Manifolds

This work is intended as an attempt to study the non-perturbative renormalization of bound state problem of finitely many Dirac-delta interactions on Riemannian manifolds, S^2, H^2 and H^3. We formulate the problem in terms of a finite dimensional matrix, called the characteristic matrix. The bound state energies can be found from the characteristic equation. The characteristic matrix can be found after a regularization and renormalization by using a sharp cut-off in the eigenvalue spectrum of the Laplacian, as it is done in the flat space, or using the heat kernel method. These two approaches are equivalent in the case of compact manifolds. The heat kernel method has a general advantage to find lower bounds on the spectrum even for compact manifolds as shown in the case of S^2. The heat kernels for H^2 and H^3 are known explicitly, thus we can calculate the characteristic matrix. Using the result, we give lower bound estimates of the discrete spectrum.
