Equivalence of the fredholm and multichannel N/D methods in potential scattering

We consider the nonrelativistic scattering by a Yukawalike potential connecting a finite number of two-body channels without spin. We present a formulation of the N/D method leading to Bjorken's prescription and show that the determinant of the denominator is equal to the Fredholm determinant o...

Sumario:We consider the nonrelativistic scattering by a Yukawalike potential connecting a finite number of two-body channels without spin. We present a formulation of the N/D method leading to Bjorken's prescription and show that the determinant of the denominator is equal to the Fredholm determinant of the Lippmann-Schwinger equation. This leads to the conclusion that the vanishing of det D at negative energies is a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of boundstate poles. © 1965 Società Italiana di Fisica.
