This study links quantum system eigenvalues to S-matrix poles for resonance states. It reveals branch points cause avoided crossings and influence quantum dynamics in open and closed systems.

Area of Science:

  • Quantum mechanics
  • Theoretical physics
  • Mathematical physics

Background:

  • The behavior of quantum systems, including resonance states, is often described using Hamilton operators and S-matrix theory.
  • Understanding the relationship between discrete states and resonance states is crucial for various quantum phenomena.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To derive a general relation between the eigenvalues of an effective Hamilton operator and the poles of the S matrix.
  • To investigate the origin of avoided crossings in quantum systems.
  • To analyze the influence of branch points on quantum dynamics.

Main Methods:

  • Derivation of a theoretical relation between Hamilton operator eigenvalues and S-matrix poles.
  • Analysis of quantum systems, including many-particle systems and quantum billiards.
