Schrödinger operators with point interactions and radial positive definite functions (Q352222): Difference between revisions

The authors consider Schrödinger operators with point interactions. In dimension larger than one, the extension of this operator on Sobolev functions of class \(W^{1,2}\) is problematic due to the lack of continuity. In dimension 3, Berezin and Faddeev proposed an extension to \(W^{2,2}\) functions which vanish at these points. In this paper, self-adjointness, lower semi-boundedness and finiteness of the negative spectrum are proved for possibly infinitely-many singularities with mutual distance bounded from below.
