A Klein Gordon Particle Captured by Embedded Curves
In the present work, a Klein Gordon particle with singular interactions
supported on embedded curves on Riemannian manifolds is discussed from a more
direct and physical perspective, via the heat kernel approach. It is shown that
the renormalized problem is well-defined, and the ground state energy is unique
and finite. The renormalization group invariance of the model is discussed, and
it is observed that the model is asymptotically free.Comment: Published version, 13 pages, no figures. arXiv admin note:

On the spectrum of a bent chain graph
We study Schr\"odinger operators on an infinite quantum graph of a chain form
which consists of identical rings connected at the touching points by
-couplings with a parameter . If the graph is "straight",
i.e. periodic with respect to ring shifts, its Hamiltonian has a band spectrum
with all the gaps open whenever . We consider a "bending"
deformation of the chain consisting of changing one position at a single ring
and show that it gives rise to eigenvalues in the open spectral gaps. We
analyze dependence of these eigenvalues on the coupling and the
"bending angle" as well as resonances of the system coming from the bending. We
also discuss the behaviour of the eigenvalues and resonances at the edges of
the spectral bands.Comment: LaTeX, 23 pages with 7 figures; minor changes, references added; to

Sufficient conditions for the anti-Zeno effect
The ideal anti-Zeno effect means that a perpetual observation leads to an
immediate disappearance of the unstable system. We present a straightforward
way to derive sufficient conditions under which such a situation occurs
expressed in terms of the decaying states and spectral properties of the
Hamiltonian. They show, in particular, that the gap between Zeno and anti-Zeno
effects is in fact very narrow.Comment: LatEx2e, 9 pages; a revised text, to appear in J. Phys. A: Math. Ge
Spectral and localization properties of the Dirichlet wave guide with two concentric Neumann discs
Bound states of the Hamiltonian describing a quantum particle living on three
dimensional straight strip of width are investigated. We impose the Neumann
boundary condition on the two concentric windows of the radii and
located on the opposite walls and the Dirichlet boundary condition on the
remaining part of the boundary of the strip. We prove that such a system
exhibits discrete eigenvalues below the essential spectrum for any .
When and tend to the infinity, the asymptotic of the eigenvalue is
derived. A comparative analysis with the one-window case reveals that due to
the additional possibility of the regulating energy spectrum the anticrossing
structure builds up as a function of the inner radius with its sharpness
increasing for the larger outer radius. Mathematical and physical
interpretation of the obtained results is presented; namely, it is derived that
the anticrossings are accompanied by the drastic changes of the wave function
localization. Parallels are drawn to the other structures exhibiting similar
phenomena; in particular, it is proved that, contrary to the two-dimensional
geometry, at the critical Neumann radii true bound states exist.Comment: 25 pages, 7 figure
Towards physical interpretation of substituent effects : the case of N- and C3-substituted pyrrole derivatives
Homogenization of the planar waveguide with frequently alternating boundary conditions
We consider Laplacian in a planar strip with Dirichlet boundary condition on
the upper boundary and with frequent alternation boundary condition on the
lower boundary. The alternation is introduced by the periodic partition of the
boundary into small segments on which Dirichlet and Neumann conditions are
imposed in turns. We show that under the certain condition the homogenized
operator is the Dirichlet Laplacian and prove the uniform resolvent
convergence. The spectrum of the perturbed operator consists of its essential
part only and has a band structure. We construct the leading terms of the
asymptotic expansions for the first band functions. We also construct the
complete asymptotic expansion for the bottom of the spectrum
The Generalized Star Product and the Factorization of Scattering Matrices on Graphs
In this article we continue our analysis of Schr\"odinger operators on
arbitrary graphs given as certain Laplace operators. In the present paper we
give the proof of the composition rule for the scattering matrices. This
composition rule gives the scattering matrix of a graph as a generalized star
product of the scattering matrices corresponding to its subgraphs. We perform a
detailed analysis of the generalized star product for arbitrary unitary
matrices. The relation to the theory of transfer matrices is also discussed
