On the two-dimensional Schrodinger operator with an attractive potential of the Bessel-Macdonald type


الملخص بالإنكليزية

We analyze the Schrodinger operator in two-dimensions with an attractive potential given by a Bessel-Macdonald function. This operator is derived in the non-relativistic approximation of planar quantum electrodynamics (${rm QED}_3$) models as a framework for evaluation of two-quasiparticle scattering potentials. The analysis is motivated keeping in mind the fact that parity-preserving ${rm QED}_3$ models can provide a possible explanation for the behavior of superconductors. Initially, we study the self-adjointness and spectral properties of the Schrodinger operator modeling the non-relativistic approximation of these ${rm QED}_3$ models. Then, by using {em Set^o-type estimates}, an estimate is derived of the number of two-particle bound states which depends directly on the value of the effective coupling constant, $C$, for {em any} value of the angular momentum. In fact, this result in connection with the condition that guarantees the self-adjointness of the Schrodinger operator shows that there can always be a large number of two-quasiparticle bound states in planar quantum electrodynamics models. In particular, we show the existence of an isolated two-quasiparticle bound state if the effective coupling constant $C in (0,2)$ in case of zero angular momentum. To the best of our knowledge, this result has not yet been addressed in the literature. Additionally, we obtain an explicit estimate for the energy gap of two-quasiparticle bound states which might be applied to high-$T_c$ $s$-wave Cooper-type superconductors as well as to $s$-wave electron-polaron--electron-polaron bound states (bipolarons) in mass-gap graphene systems.
