A lower bound for the ground state energy of a Schroedinger operator on a loop

Helmut Linde

Published 2005-08-11Version 1

Consider a one dimensional quantum mechanical particle described by the Schroedinger equation on a closed curve of length $2\pi$. Assume that the potential is given by the square of the curve's curvature. We show that in this case the energy of the particle can not be lower than 0.6085. We also prove that it is not lower than 1 (the conjectured optimal lower bound) for a certain class of closed curves that have an additional geometrical property
