Bound on the excess charge for bosonic systems interacting through Coulomb potentials

Rafael D. Benguria, Juan Manuel González-Brantes

We prove an upper bound on the excess charge for non-relativistic atomic systems, independent of the particle statistics. This result improves Lieb's bound of 1984 for any $Z \ge 1…

Bound on the Excess Charge of Generalized Thomas-Fermi-Weizsäcker Functionals

Rafael D. Benguria, Heinz Siedentop

We bound the number of electrons that an atom can bind in excess of neutrality for density functionals generalizing the classical Thomas-Fermi-Weizsäcker functional: instead of…

A Block-diagonal form for four-component operators describing Graphene Quantum Dots

Rafael D. Benguria, Edgardo Stockmeyer, Cristóbal Vallejos +1

We consider four-component Dirac operators on domains in the plane. With suitable boundary conditions, these operators describe graphene quantum dots. The most general boundary con…

The Hadamard formula and the Rayleigh-Faber-Krahn inequality for nonlocal eigenvalue problems

Rafael D. Benguria, Mariel Sáez, Marcone C. Pereira

In this paper we obtain a Hadamard type formula for simple eigenvalues and an analog to the Rayleigh-Faber-Krahn inequality for a class of nonlocal eigenvalue problems. Such class…

New bounds on the excess charge for atomic systems

Rafael D. Benguria, Juan Manuel Gonzalez-Brantes, Trinidad Tubino

In this manuscript, using a technique introduced by P.~T.~Nam in 2012 and the {\it Coulomb Uncertainty Principle}, we prove new bounds on the excess charge for non relativistic ato…

Analytic bound on the excess charge for the Hartree Model

Rafael D. Benguria, Trinidad Tubino

We prove an analytic bound on the excess charge for the Hartree equation in the atomic case.
