The self-energy of Friedrichs–Lee models and its application to bound states and resonances

Davide Lonigro

Abstract A system composed of two-level systems interacting with a single excitation of a one-dimensional boson field with continuous spectrum, described by a Friedrichs (or Friedrichs–Lee) model, can exhibit bound states and resonances; the latter can be characterized by computing the so-called self-energy of the model. We evaluate an analytic expression, valid for a large class of dispersion relations and coupling functions, for the self-energy of such models. Afterwards, we focus on the case of identical two-level systems, and we refine our analysis by distinguishing between dominant and suppressed contributions to the associated self-energy; we finally examine the phenomenology of bound states in the presence of a single dominant contribution.

Spectral properties of the singular Friedrichs–Lee Hamiltonian

Paolo Facchi A, Marilena Ligabò, Davide Lonigro

We show that the Friedrichs–Lee model, which describes the one-excitation sector of a two-level atom interacting with a structured boson field, can be generalized to singular atom–field couplings. We provide a characterization of its spectrum and resonances and discuss the inverse spectral problem.

An Exactly Solvable Model for Quantum Resonances: The Friedrichs Model

Alex Glickfield

The Friedrichs model consists in an interaction between the bound state of a quantum system (say, an atom) and an external field, interaction which produces a resonance. This interaction intertwines the bound state with the eigenvectors of the continuous spectrum of the field Hamiltonian and depends on a coupling parameter. The resonance appears as a pole of the analytic continuation of the reduced resolvent corresponding to the interacting Hamiltonian. This model admits generalizations like, for instance, adding bound states and/or degeneracy to the field Hamiltonian. We examine what happens as the imaginary component of the eigenvalue associated with a resonant energy approaches zero.
