Abstract
|
We study the spectrum of the Fröhlich Hamiltonian for the polaron at fixed total
momentum. We prove the existence of excited eigenvalues between the ground state
energy and the essential spectrum at strong coupling. In fact, our main result shows
that the number of excited energy bands diverges in the strong coupling
limit. To prove this we derive upper bounds for the min-max values of the
corresponding fiber Hamiltonians and compare them with the bottom of the essential
spectrum, a lower bound on which was recently obtained by Brooks and Seiringer
(Comm. Math. Phys. 404:1 (2023), 287–337). The upper bounds are given in
terms of the ground state energy band shifted by momentum-independent
excitation energies determined by an effective Hamiltonian of Bogoliubov
type.
