- Abstract: We investigate the entire family of multi-center point interaction
Hamiltonians. We show that a large sub-family of these operators do not become
either singular or trivial when the positions of two or more scattering centers
tend to coincide. In this sense, they appear to be renormalised by default as
opposed to the "local" point interaction Hamiltonians usually considered in the
literature as the ones of physical interest. In the two-center case we study
the behaviour of the negative eigenvalues as a function of the center distance.
The result is used to analyze a formal Born-Oppenheimer approximation of a
three-particle system with two heavy and one light particle. We show that this
simplified model does not show any ultra-violet catastrophe and we prove that
the ratio of successive low energy eigenvalues follows the Efimov geometrical
law.

We consider non-Hermitian tight-binding one-dimensional Hamiltonians.
We show that imposing a certain symmetry causes all eigenvalues to pair up and the corresponding eigenstates to coalesce in pairs.

We show that in the limit one obtains the one-body Hamiltonian for the light particle subject to $N$ (non-local) point interactions placed at fixed positions.
We will verify that such non-local point interactions do not exhibit the ultraviolet pathologies that are present in the case of standard local point interactions.

We argue that the dispersion of low energy excitations in gapless frustration-free Hamiltonians is actually a general property of such systems.
This may be understood as a no-go theorem realizing gapless phases with linearly dispersive excitations in frustration-free Hamiltonians.

We study how the probability of presence of a particle is distributed between the two parts of a composite fermionic system.
We prove that it is a non-perturbative property and we find out a large/small coupling constant duality.
Inspired by the proof of KAM theorem, we are able to deal with this problem by introducing a cut-off in energies that eliminates these small denominators.
