Resonances of the Dirac Hamiltonian in the non relativistic limit (Q5950574)

The resonances of the Dirac Hamiltonian is considered, for a Dirac operator in \(\mathbb{R}^3\). The authors prove the existence of resonances, the main results being as follows: Theorem 1 states that \(D(\theta,c)\) has pure point spectrum for small positive \(\widetilde{s}\theta\), each eigenvalue \(\lambda_j (\theta,c)\) is isolated and of finite even multiplicity, and does not depend on \(\theta\). Theorem 2 proposes that if \(\widetilde{s} \theta\) is small enough, then there are the following properties: (i) Let \(K\) be a compact set of \(\mathbb{C}\) containing no eigenvalue of \(H\), then, if \(c\) is large enough, \(K\) contains no resonance. (ii) Let \(D\) be a compact disc centered at an eigenvalue \(E_0\) of \(H\), of multiplicity \(\mu\), and containing no other eigenvalue. Then, if \(c\) is large enough, \(D\) contains a finite number of resonances, and the sum of their multiplicities is \(2\mu\).
