The Strong Levinson Theorem for the Dirac Equation
We consider the Dirac equation in one space dimension in the presence of a
symmetric potential well. We connect the scattering phase shifts at E=+m and
E=-m to the number of states that have left the positive energy continuum or
joined the negative energy continuum respectively as the potential is turned on
from zero.Comment: Submitted to Physical Review Letter
