Abstract: In this note, we care to study the degeneracy of the zero modes for a spin-$1/2$ charged particle in a one-dimensional space. We analyze the arguments proposed by Aharonov and Casher in a two-dimensional space. In two dimensions the zero energy states are constructed in terms on a scalar potential $\lambda(x,y)$, which is uniquely determined. We show that in one dimension it is possible the existence of an infinite family of the scalar potentials. This family is determined by a quantum number $k$, which is restricted by the relation $|k| < \frac{1}{2} \int dx B(x)$, where $B(x)$ is a scalar field localized in a restricted region of the space. This implies that the degeneracy of the zero energy states is infinite, which contrasts with the two dimensional case in which the degeneracy is finite. Finally we apply our results to a two dimensional case in which magnetic field have a translational symmetry along a direction.

We show how to reduce the geometry of degenerate states to the non-abelian connection $A$. We find independent invariants associated with each triple of subspaces. Some of them generalize the Berry-Pancharatnam phase, and some do not have analogues for 1-dimensional subspaces.

Bound states without potentials: localization at singularities [0.0]
We discuss a paradigm where bound states arise purely due to kinetic energy considerations. This phenomenon occurs in certain non-manifold spaces that consist of multiple smooth surfaces that intersect one another. We find a ground state that is localized around the singular point, bound by the kinetic energy of shuttling' among the $M$ surfaces.

Existence of the transfer matrix for a class of nonlocal potentials in two dimensions [0.0]
Evanescent waves are waves that decay or grow exponentially in regions of the space void of interaction. In potential scattering defined by the Schr"odinger equation, $(-nabla2+v)psi=k2psi$ for a local potential $v$, they arise in dimensions greater than one and are present regardless of the details of $v$.

We prove it violates the "complexity=volume" conjecture for a low-temperature hyperbolic AdS$_d+1$ black hole dual to a CFT living on a ($d-1$)-dimensional hyperboloid $H_d-1$.

Scattering data and bound states of a squeezed double-layer structure [77.34726150561087]
A structure composed of two parallel homogeneous layers is studied in the limit as their widths $l_j$ and $l_j$, and the distance between them $r$ shrinks to zero simultaneously. The existence of non-trivial bound states is proven in the squeezing limit, including the particular example of the squeezed potential in the form of the derivative of Dirac's delta function. The scenario how a single bound state survives in the squeezed system from a finite number of bound states in the finite system is described in detail.
