Perturbative calculations of the energy spectrum for a quantum particle confined in weakly curved pipes
Shin-itiro Goto (IMS)
Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) A geometrical perturbation scheme that addresses some aspects of the Schr¨odinger equation for a single particle confined in a class of curved pipes is established. For our analysis the pipe will be regarded as a perturbed finitely long hollow cuboid. The perturbation will maintain the pipe’s rectangular cross-section while deforming its axis into a planar space-curve with, in general, non-constant curvature. It is assumed that the curvature $kappa (z)$ depends on the arc-length $|z|$ of the planar space-curve. Furthermore we require that $|kappa (z)L| ≪ 1$ with $L$ being
a length of the rectangular cross-section for the perturbation analysis to be effective. It is also assumed that the confinement is modeled with the 3-dimensional infinite potential well. Under these conditions the energy spectrum of the Schr¨odinger equation for a non-relativistic particle confined with the 3-dimensional infinite potential well, corresponding to a prescribed curved pipe, will be considered. A perturbation scheme will be applied to calculate a normalized wave function and a spectrum as a perturbation expansion in powers of $L$. Mode expansions based on
Dirichlet eigen-functions of the Laplacian for a rectangular domain can be used to reduce the general problem at each order. Since it will turn out that there exist some resonance terms in the course of our perturbative analysis,
a singlar perturbation method will be employed to deal with such resonance terms. This methodology gives a perturbative expression of the energy spectrum.
