On bound electron pairs on the half-line

Abstract: Based on the quantum two-body problem introduced in [arXiv:1604.06693] we consider bound pairs of electrons moving on the positive half-line. The analysis is motivated by the ground-breaking work of Cooper who identified the pairing of electrons as a possible explanation for superconducting behaviour in metals. In this paper we are interested in the connection between the topologies of the underlying one- and two-particle configuration spaces and spectral properties of the Hamiltonian linked to a condensation of pairs. We derive explicit estimates for the energy gap and prove condensation for a gas of non-interacting pairs. Finally, we add some disorder to the system and prove destruction of the condensate.
