Selfadjoint operator theory in quantum theory, including spectral analysis (81Q10)

Abstract: We prove an approximation result showing how operators of the type $-Delta-gammadelta(x-Gamma)$ in $L^2(mathbb{R}^2)$, where $Gamma$ is a graph, can be modeled in the strong resolvent sense by point-interaction Hamiltonians with an appropriate arrangement of the $delta$ potentials. The result is illustrated on finding the spectral properties in cases when $Gamma$ is a ring or a star. Furthermore, we use this method to indicate that scattering on an infinite curve $Gamma$ which is locally close to a loop shape or has multiple bends may exhibit resonances due to quantum tunneling or repeated reflections.
