We consider a system of three particles consisting of two identical fermions and one other particle on a one-dimensional lattice. The fermions interact via a nearest-neighbor potential of strength
μ1∈R , while the interaction between a fermion and one other particle is via an on-site potential with strength
μ2∈R . We establish existence of bound states of the associated three-body lattice Schrödinger operator for all values of the total quasimomentum
K∈T1 . Furthermore, we show that both the bound state
fμ1μ2(K;⋅,⋅) and its corresponding eigenvalue
Eμ1μ2(K) depend holomorphically on the quasimomentum.
We consider general d-dimensional lattice ferromagnetic spin systems with nearest neighbor interactions in the high temperature region $(\ensuremath{\beta}\ensuremath{\ll}1).$ Each model is characterized by a single-site a priori spin probability distribution taken to be noneven. We state our results in terms of the parameter $\ensuremath{\alpha}=(〈\overline{s}{}^{4}〉\ensuremath{-}3〈\overline{s}{}^{2}{〉}^{2}\ensuremath{-}〈\overline{s}{}^{3}{〉}^{2}〈\overline{s}{}^{2}{〉}^{\ensuremath{-}1})/(〈\overline{s}{}^{4}〉\ensuremath{-}〈\overline{s}{}^{2}{〉}^{2}\ensuremath{-}〈\overline{s}{}^{3}{〉}^{2}〈\overline{s}{}^{2}{〉}^{\ensuremath{-}1}),$ where $\overline{s}=s\ensuremath{-}〈s〉,$ and
〈sk〉 denotes the
kth moment of the single-site distribution. Associated with the model is a lattice quantum field theory which is known to contain a particle of mass $m\ensuremath{\sim}\mathrm{ln}\ensuremath{\beta}.$ Assuming $〈{s}^{3}〉\ensuremath{\ne}0$ we show that for $\ensuremath{\alpha}>0,$ \ensuremath{\beta} small, there exists a bound state with mass below the two-particle threshold
2m. For $\ensuremath{\alpha}<0$ bound states do not exist. These results are obtained using a Bethe-Salpeter (BS) equation in the ladder approximation in conjunction with a representation for the inverse of the two-point function designed to analyze the spectrum below but close to
2m.
