They are applied to the study of spectral properties of self-adjoint realizations of two- and three-dimensional Schr\\\"odinger operators with countably many point interactions. In particular, we find conditions on the configuration of point interactions such that any self-adjoint realization has purely absolutely continuous non-negative spectrum. We also apply some results on Schr\\\"odinger operators to obtain new results on completely monotone functions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2012-08-06T16:29:47.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "47A10", "47B25" ], "keywords": [ "radial positive definite functions", "point interactions", "spectral theory", "schrödinger operators", "absolutely continuous non-negative spectrum" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2012arXiv1208.1203M" } } }
