In mathematics and physics, Lieb–Thirring inequalities provide an upper bound on the sums of powers of the negative eigenvalues of a Schrödinger operator in terms of integrals of the potential. They are named after E. H. Lieb and W. E. Thirring. The inequalities are useful in studies of quantum mechanics and differential equations and imply, as a corollary, a lower bound on the kinetic energy of quantum mechanical particles that plays an important role in the proof of stability of matter.〔E. H. Lieb, W. E. Thirring, Inequalities for the moments of the eigenvalues of the Schrödinger hamiltonian and their relation to Sobolev inequalities, Studies in Mathematical Physics, Princeton University Press (1976), 269–303〕 ==Statement of the inequalities== For the Schrödinger operator on with real-valued potential , the numbers denote the (not necessarily finite) sequence of negative eigenvalues. Then, for and satisfying one of the conditions there exists a constant , which only depends on and , such that where is the negative part of the potential . The cases as well as were proven by E. H. Lieb and W. E. Thirring in 1976 〔 and used in their proof of stability of matter. In the case the left-hand side is simply the number of negative eigenvalues, and proofs were given independently by M. Cwikel.,〔M. Cwikel, Weak type estimates for singular values and the number of bound states of Schrödinger operators, Ann. of Math. (2) 106 (1977), no. 1, 93–100〕 E. H. Lieb 〔E. H. Lieb, Bounds on the eigenvalues of the Laplace and Schroedinger operators, Bull. Amer. Math. Soc. 82 (1976), no. 5, 751–753〕 and G. V. Rozenbljum.〔G. V. Rozenbljum, Distribution of the discrete spectrum of singular differential operators, Izv. Vysš. Učebn. Zaved. Matematika (1976), no. 1(164), 75–86〕 The resulting inequality is thus also called the Cwikel–Lieb–Rosenbljum bound. The remaining critical case was proven to hold by T. Weidl 〔T. Weidl, On the Lieb–Thirring constants for , Comm. Math. Phys. 178 (1996), no. 1, 135–146〕 The conditions on and are necessary and cannot be relaxed. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lieb–Thirring inequality」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
