Unique Continuation for Many-Body Schrödinger Operators and the Hohenberg-Kohn Theorem. II: The Pauli Hamiltonian

Abstract

We prove the strong unique continuation property for many-body Pauli operators with external potentials, interaction potentials and magnetic fields in L^p_{\mathrm{loc}}(\mathbb{R}^d) , and with magnetic potentials in L^q_{\mathrm{loc}}(\mathbb{R}^d) , where p>\max (2d/3,2) and q>2d . For this purpose, we prove a singular Carleman estimate involving fractional Laplacian operators. Consequently, we obtain Tellgren's Hohenberg-Kohn theorem for the Maxwell-Schrödinger model.
