Spectral Comparison Theorem for the Dirac Equation
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider a single particle which is bound by a central potential and obeys the Dirac equation. We compare two cases in which the masses are the same but Va < Vb, where V is the time-component of a vector potential. We prove generally that for each discrete eigenvalue E whose corresponding (large and small) radial wave functions have no nodes, it necessarily follows that Ea < Eb. As an illustration, this general relativistic comparison theorem is applied to approximate the Dirac spectrum generated by a screened-Coulomb potential. PACS 03.65.Ge, 03.65.Pm, 31.15.Bs, 02.30.Mv.

Inverse Problem for Interior Spectral Data of the Dirac Operator with Discontinuous Conditions
In this paper, we study the inverse problem for Dirac differential operators with discontinuity conditions in a compact interval. It is shown that the potential functions can be uniquely determined by the value of the potential on some interval and parts of two sets of eigenvalues. Also, it is shown that the potential function can be uniquely determined by a part of a set of values of eigenfun...
متن کاملSpecial comparison theorem for the Dirac equation.
If a central vector potential V(r,a) in the Dirac equation is monotonic in a parameter a, then a discrete eigenvalue E(a) is monotonic in a. For such a special class of comparisons, this generalizes an earlier comparison theorem that was restricted to node free states. Moreover, the present theorem applies to every discrete eigenvalue.
متن کاملRenormalized Oscillation Theory for Dirac Operators
Oscillation theory for one-dimensional Dirac operators with separated boundary conditions is investigated. Our main theorem reads: If λ0,1 ∈ R and if u, v solve the Dirac equation Hu = λ0u, Hv = λ1v (in the weak sense) and respectively satisfy the boundary condition on the left/right, then the dimension of the spectral projection P(λ0,λ1)(H) equals the number of zeros of the Wronskian of u and ...
متن کاملRelative Oscillation Theory for Dirac Operators
We develop relative oscillation theory for one-dimensional Dirac operators which, rather than measuring the spectrum of one single operator, measures the difference between the spectra of two different operators. This is done by replacing zeros of solutions of one operator by weighted zeros of Wronskians of solutions of two different operators. In particular, we show that a Sturm-type compariso...
متن کاملDetailed comparison of numerical methods for the perturbed sine-Gordon equation with impulsive forcing
The properties of various numerical methods for the study of the perturbed sine-Gordon (sG) equation with impulsive forcing are investigated. In particular, finite difference and pseudo-spectral methods for discretizing the equation are considered. Different methods of discretizing the Dirac delta are discussed. Various combinations of these methods are then used to model the soliton–defect int...
