On some sharp spectral inequalities for Schrödinger operators on semiaxis (Q2439712)

A one-dimensional Schrödinger operator acting in \(L^2(R_+(C^N))\), \(R_+= (0,\infty)\), defined by \[ H\phi(x)= \Biggl(-{d^2\over dx^2}\otimes I- V(x)\Biggr)\,\phi(x),\quad \phi'(0)- S\phi(0)= 0,\tag{1} \] is considered, where \(I\) is the \(N\times N\) identity matrix, \(V\) is a Hermitian \(N\times N\) matrix-function and \(S\) is an \(N\times N\) Hermitian matrix. The authors obtained sharp Lieb-Thirring inequalities for the Schrödinger operator \(H\), that is, they proved the following theorems. Theorem 1. Let \(\text{Tr\,}V^2\in L^1(\mathbb R_+)\), \(V\geq 0\). Then the negative spectrum of the operator \(H=-\Delta-V\) is discrete and the following Lieb-Thirring inequality for its eigenvalues \(\{\lambda_n\}\) holds: \[ {3\over 4} \lambda_1\,\text{Tr\,}S^{{1\over 2}}+ (2\kappa_1- N)\lambda^{{3\over 2}}_1+ \sum^\infty_{n=2} \kappa_n \lambda^{{3\over 2}}_n\leq {3\over 16} \int^\infty_0 \text{Tr\,}V^2(x)\,dx+ {1\over 4}\,\text{Tr\,}S^3,\tag{2} \] where \(\kappa_n\) is the multiplicity of the eigenvalues \(-\lambda_n\). Theorem 2. Let \(V\geq 0\) be a diagonal \(N\times N\) matrix-function and let \(S\) be a Hermitian matrix. Then the operator (1) can be identified with a Schrödinger operator on a star graph with \(N\) semifinite edges and its negative spectrum satisfies the inequality (2). Theorem 3. Let \(V\geq 0\), \(\text{Tr\,}V^2\in L^1(0,\infty)\) and let \(V\) and \(S\) be diagonal matrices with entries \(v_j\) and \(s_j\), \(j= 1,\dots,N\), respectively. Then, the negative eigenvalues of the operator \(H\) defined in (1) satisfy the inequality \[ {3\over 4} \sum^N_{j=1} \lambda_{j1} s_j+{1\over 2} \sum_{j=1} \lambda^N_{j1}+ \sum^N_{j=1} \sum^\infty_{n=2} \lambda^{{3\over 2}}_{jn}\leq {3\over 16} \int^\infty_0 \text{Tr\,}V^2(x)\,dx+ {1\over 4}\,\text{Tr\,}S^3, \] where \(-\lambda_j\) are the negative eigenvalues of \(h_j\) defined by \[ h_j\psi(x)= -{d^2\over dx^2} \psi(x)- v_j(x)\phi(x),\quad \psi'(0)- s_j\psi(0)= 0. \] Theorem 4. Let \(H\) be a Schrödinger operator in \(L^2(\mathbb R^d_+)\) with Neumann boundary conditions defined by \(H\psi= -\Delta\psi- V\psi=-\lambda\psi\), \({\partial\over\partial x_1} \psi(0,x')\). Let \(V\geq 0\) and \(V\in L^{\gamma+{d\over 2}}\), \(\gamma\geq {3\over 2}\). Then for the negative eigenvalues \(\{-\lambda_j\}\) of \(H\) the following inequality holds: \[ \sum_n \lambda^2_n\leq L_{\gamma, d} \int_{\mathbb R^d_+} V^{\gamma+{d\over 2}}(x)\,dx+{1\over 2} L^d_{\gamma,d-1} \int_{\mathbb R^{d-1}} \mu_1^{\gamma+{d-1\over 2}}(x')\,dx'\leq 2L_{\gamma,d} \int_{\mathbb R^d_+} V^{\gamma+{d\over 2}}(x)\,dx. \] Here \(\mu_1(x)\) is the ground state energy for the operator \(-{d^2\over dx^2_1}- V(x_1,x')\) in \(L^2(\mathbb R^d_+)\) with Neumann boundary condition at zero and \[ L_{\gamma,d}= (2\pi)^{-d} \int_{\mathbb R^d}\Biggl({1\over 2}(|1-|\xi|^2|+ 1-|\xi|^2)\Biggr)^\gamma\, d\xi. \]
