After defining the model we state some recent theorems of ours. First, the transition from many-body collapse to the existence of a thermodynamic limit for N polarons occurs precisely at U = 2α, where U is the electronic Coulomb repulsion and α is the polaron coupling constant. Second, if U is large enough, there is no multi-polaron binding of any kind. We also discuss the Pekar-Tomasevich approximation to the ground state energy, which is valid for large α. Finally, we derive exact results, not reported before, about the one-dimensional toy model introduced by E. P. Gross.","lang":"eng"}],"publist_id":"4607","date_updated":"2021-01-12T06:56:45Z","status":"public","date_created":"2018-12-11T11:56:58Z","conference":{"name":"QMath: Mathematical Results in Quantum Physics"},"author":[{"full_name":"Frank, Rupert L","last_name":"Frank","first_name":"Rupert"},{"last_name":"Lieb","first_name":"Élliott","full_name":"Lieb, Élliott H"},{"full_name":"Robert Seiringer","id":"4AFD0470-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","first_name":"Robert","orcid":"0000-0002-6781-0521","last_name":"Seiringer"},{"full_name":"Thomas, Lawrence E","first_name":"Lawrence","last_name":"Thomas"}],"day":"26","publisher":"World Scientific Publishing","month":"05","year":"2011","date_published":"2011-05-26T00:00:00Z","extern":1,"citation":{"chicago":"Frank, Rupert, Élliott Lieb, Robert Seiringer, and Lawrence Thomas. “Binding, Stability, and Non-Binding of Multi-Polaron Systems,” 21–32.
