An isoperimetric problem for point interactions
Abstract
We consider Hamiltonian with N point interactions in d, d=2,3, all with the same coupling constant, placed at vertices of an equilateral polygon N. It is shown that the ground state energy is locally maximized by a regular polygon. The question whether the maximum is global is reduced to an interesting geometric problem.
