The ground state problem for a quantum Hamiltonian model describing friction
L. Bruneau
Abstract
In this paper, we consider the quantum version of the hamiltonian model describing friction introduced in [BDB]. This model consists of a particle which interacts with a bosonic reservoir representing a homogeneous medium through which the particle moves. We show that if the particle is confined, then the Hamiltonian admits a ground state if and only if a suitable infrared condition is satisfied. The latter is violated in the case of linear friction, but satisfied when the friction force is proportional to a higher power of the particle speed.
