On the number of bound states of point interactions on hyperbolic manifolds

Abstract

We study the bound state problem for N attractive point Dirac δ-interactions in two- and three-dimensional Riemannian manifolds. We give a sufficient condition for the Hamiltonian to have N bound states and give an explicit criterion for it in hyperbolic manifolds ℍ2 and ℍ3. Furthermore, we study the same spectral problem for a relativistic extension of the model on ℝ2 and ℍ2.
