Minimization of the energy of the nonrelativistic one-electron Pauli-Fierz model over quasifree states (Q2439220)

The authors study the existence of a minimizer for the energy for the nonrelativistic one-electron Pauli-Fierz model within the class of quasifree state. It is shown that the minimum of the energy on quasifree states coincides with the minimum of the energy on pure quasifree states, where existence and uniqueness of a minimizer holds. Infrared and ultraviolet cutoffs are assumed, along with sufficiently small coupling constant and momentum of the dressed electron. A perturbative expression of the minimum of the energy on quasifree states for a small momentum of the dressed electron and small coupling constant is given.
