Description

It is well-known that the celebrated Fermi delta potential model [1,2] leads to non-trivial scattering in the s-channel only. We propose a new family of point interaction models which may be used to describe particles with non-trivial interaction also in the $p$-channel while preserving exact solvability and point character of the interaction [3]. These models are given by self-adjoint operators and their spectral and scattering properies are studied in detail. The developed method is applied to the system of three quantum particles and we discuss the possibillity that this operator is semibounded (in contrast to the Landau Hamiltonian studied by Minlos-Faddeev in the sixties[4]).
