Abstract

The variational theorem for the scattering length (Cherny and Shanenko 2000 Phys. Rev. E 62 1646–1659) is extended to one and two dimensions. It is shown that the arising singularities can be treated in terms of generalized functions. The variational theorem is applied to a universal many-body system of spinless bosons. The extended Tan adiabatic sweep theorem is obtained for interacting potentials of arbitrary shape with the variation of the one-particle dispersion. The pair distribution function is calculated at short distances by means of the variation of the potential. The suggested scheme is based on simple quantum mechanics; it is physically transparent and free from any divergence.
