• Abstract: Unlike the situation for the 1d Dirac delta derivative Schrodinger pseudo potential (SPP) and the 2d Dirac delta SPP, where the indeterminacy originates from a lack of scale in the first and both a lack of scale as well as the wave function not being well defined at the support of the generalized function SPP; the obstruction in 3d Euclidean space for the Schrodinger equation with the Dirac delta as a SPP only comes from the wave function (the $L^2$ bound sate solution) being singular at the compact point support of the Dirac delta function (measure). The problem is solved here in a completely mathematically rigorous manner with no recourse to renormalization nor regularization. The method involves a distributionally generalized version of the Schrodinger theory as developed by the author, which regards the formal symbol "$H\psi$" as an element of the space of distributions, the topological dual vector space to the space of smooth functions with compact support. Two main facts come to light. The first is the bound state energy of such a system can be calculated in a well-posed context, the value of which agrees with both the mathematical and theoretical physics literature. The second is that there is then a rigorous distributional version of the Hellmann-Feynman theorem.

  In the framework of distributionally generalized quantum theory, the object $Hpsi$ is defined as a distribution. The significance is a mathematically rigorous method, which does not rely upon renormalization or regularization of any kind. The distributional interpretation resolves the need to evaluate a wave function at a point where it fails to be defined.

  We propose an interpretative framework for quantum mechanics corresponding to the specifications of Louis de Broglie's double-solution theory. The principle is to decompose the evolution of a quantum system into two wave functions. For Schr"odinger, the particles are extended and the square of the module of the (internal) wave function of an electron corresponds to the density of its charge in space.
