Asymptotics for Anisotropic Rabi Models
arXiv:2510.20201
Abstract
A one-parameter family of self-adjoint operators interpolating between the quantum Rabi Hamiltonian and its rotating-wave approximation is studied. A mathematically rigorous treatment of such interpolations has been lacking. Motivated by the physical claim that counter-rotating terms dominate at strong coupling, we analyze the limit in which the coupling constant of the anisotropic Rabi model tends to infinity. Our results provide an operator-theoretic description of this limit and clarify the spectral evolution from the rotating-wave approximation to the full Rabi model.
