K. Chadan et R. Kobayashi, GENERALIZATION OF THE CALOGERO-COHN BOUND ON THE NUMBER OF BOUND-STATES, Comptes rendus de l'Academie des sciences. Serie II. Mecanique, physique, chimie, astronomie, 320(7), 1995, pp. 339-344
In this Note, we generalize the Calogero-Cohn bound on tile number of
bound states in the S-wave for a purely attractive and non-decreasing
potential vanishing at infinity to the case where the potential, purel
y attractive as before, is not necessarily monotone, and can therefore
have oscillations. bt this generalization, tile condition on the mono
tonicity of rile potential is replaced by a more general condition [se
e (6)].
