$\phi_{s}(f):=\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}(a(+f)+a(f))$

The Hamiltonian of the spin-boson
model
is
defined
by
$H_{SB}:= \frac{\mu}{2}\sigma_{3}\sqrt{\mathrm{d}}I+I\otimes Hb+\sqrt{2}\alpha\sigma 1\otimes\emptyset_{s}(\lambda)$
acting in the Hilbert space
$\mathcal{F}:=\mathrm{c}^{2}\otimes \mathcal{F}_{b}=\mathcal{F}_{b}\oplus \mathcal{F}b$

$T$
on

It
is
well-known
that
$H_{SB}$
is self-adjoint with
$D(H_{SB})=D(I\Theta H_{b})$
and
$- \frac{|fl|}{\underline{?}}-\alpha^{2}||\frac{\lambda}{\sqrt{p_{\mathfrak{l}}}}||^{2}L\underline{\circ}\leq H_{SB}$

$||\cdot||_{L\underline’}$
denotes
the

For a self-adjoint
operator

we denote by
$E(T)$
the
infimum of the
spectrum
$\sigma(T)$
of
$T$
:
$E(T)= \inf\sigma(T)$
.
In this paper, an eigenvector of
$T$
with
eigenvalue
$E(T)$
is called a ground
state
of
$T$
(if
it
exists).
We say that
$T$
has
a
(resp. unique)
ground
state
if
$\dim \mathrm{k}\mathrm{e}\mathrm{r}(T-E(T))\geq 1$
(resp.
dim ker

We call
$E(T)$
the ground state
energy
of
$T$
if
$T$
is
a
Hamiltonian.
For
$H_{SB}$
we
set
$E_{SB}(\mu, \alpha):=E(H_{S}B)$
.
By the variational principle
(
$[\mathrm{A}\mathrm{r}1$, Theorem 2.4] and
$[\mathrm{D}$,
p.161]).
we
have
$E_{SB}( \mu, \alpha)\leq-\frac{|\mu|}{2}.e^{-2}\alpha 2||\lambda/\omega_{\gamma}||^{2}L^{2}-\alpha^{2}||\frac{\lambda}{\sqrt{v_{r}}}.||_{L}22$

Under
certain assumptions.
we
know that
$H_{SB}$
has
a ground

DEFINITION
1.
We say a vector
$\Psi\in \mathcal{F}\equiv \mathcal{F}_{b}\oplus \mathcal{F}_{b}$
overlaps with a ground state
$\Omega_{SB}(\mu, \alpha)$
if
and only if there
exists the
groun.d
state
$\Omega_{SB(\mu},$
$\alpha$)
of
$H_{SB}$
such that
$\langle\Psi . \Omega_{SB}(\mu, \alpha)\rangle r\neq 0$
.
where
$\langle$,
$\rangle_{\mathcal{F}}$is the
standard
inner
product
of
$\mathcal{F}\equiv \mathcal{F}_{b}\mathrm{t}^{\mathrm{T}_{\backslash }}\supset \mathcal{F}_{b}$.
From
now
on.
according
to
the custom
for
the physicists, all the inner products of the
Hilbert
spues appearing in
this
paper
have
the linearity
on
the
right
hand side.
If
a ground state
$\Omega_{SB}(\mu.\alpha)$
of
$H_{SB}$
exists,
for
$\Omega_{SB}(\mu.\alpha)$
we
set
$\Omega_{SB}(.\mu.\alpha)=\in \mathcal{F}\equiv \mathcal{F}_{b^{\frac}}."|\mathcal{F}_{b}$
.
It
is
well kIlOWIl
that.
if
$f\in L^{2}(\mathrm{R}^{3})$
,
we
can define a
self-adjoint operator
$P(f)$
by
tlllls,
if
$\lambda/\ ^{1}\mathrm{r}\in L^{2}‘(\mathrm{R}^{s})$
,
we have
two
unitary operators
$[_{\Sigma}^{r_{\pm}}\mathrm{c}\mathrm{l}\mathrm{e}\mathrm{f}\mathrm{i}_{\mathrm{I}}1\mathrm{P}\mathrm{t}1$by
$\iota_{\pm \mathrm{p}}^{r}’:=\mathrm{e}\mathrm{x}[\pm i\alpha P(\lambda/\omega_{f})]$
.
$(\overline{/})$We
$\mathrm{c}\mathrm{l}\mathrm{e}\mathrm{f}\mathrm{i}_{\mathrm{I}}1\mathrm{e}$two
$\mathrm{u}\mathrm{I}\iota \mathrm{i}\mathrm{t}_{\mathrm{V}\mathrm{e}}\mathrm{C}^{\cdot}\mathrm{t}\mathrm{o}\Gamma \mathrm{S}\Omega_{\pm}\in \mathcal{F}\equiv \mathcal{F}_{b\ddot{\dot{\oplus}}}\mathcal{F}_{b}$by
$\Omega_{\pm}:=\frac{1}{2}$
.
We
have
the followinff
$\mathrm{D}\mathrm{r}\mathrm{o}\mathrm{o}\mathrm{o}\mathrm{S}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{t}\mathrm{i}\mathrm{o}\mathrm{n}$on an
upoer
bound of the
ground
state
energy:
$H_{sBS}/:=- \frac{\mu}{2}\sigma_{1}\sigma\cup^{i}I+I\otimes Hb+\sqrt{2}\alpha\sigma_{3}\otimes\emptyset’(\lambda)$
respectively. We
note here that
$H_{SB}$
and
$H_{SB}’$
are
unitary
equivalent
(see
Lemma
$2(\mathrm{i})$
in
this
paper).
So,
by
[
$\mathrm{D}$,
Theorem
10],
for sufficiently small
$|\mu|$
,
$E_{SB}( \mu, \alpha)=-\alpha^{2}\int \mathrm{R}3dk\frac{\lambda(k)^{2}}{\vee\prime b^{1}r(k)}-\frac{|\mu|}{2}\exp[-9.\alpha^{2}\int_{\mathrm{R}^{3}}dk\frac{\lambda(k)^{2}}{\omega_{r}(k)^{2}}]+0(\mu^{2})$
.
For
arbitrary
fixed
$m>0$
and
$\mu\neq 0$
(resp.
$\alpha\neq 0$
),
sufficiently
small
$|\alpha|$
(resp.
$|\mu|$
)
satisfies
the inequality in
(ii).
Thus Theorem
$3(\mathrm{i})_{\pm^{\mathrm{W}\mathrm{i}}}\mathrm{t}\mathrm{h}(\mathrm{i}\mathrm{i})$may be
legarded
as a result which
im-proves the
oIle
obtained
by
regular
perturbation theory. Note that
(10)
is a nonperturbative
$\mathrm{e}\mathrm{s}\mathrm{t}\mathrm{i}_{\mathrm{I}\mathrm{n}}\mathrm{a}\mathrm{t}\mathrm{e}$
in
$\alpha$,
since
the left
hand side
of
(10)
is
non-polynomial
in
$\alpha$.

and
$\Omega$-overlaps with both
of
them. Then
$E_{SB}(\mu’, \alpha)\geq E_{SB(\mu,\alpha\cdot)}$
if
$\mu<\mu’$
.
The
basic idea
to
prove
our main
theorem
is
as follows: If
there
exist
a ground
state
$\Omega_{SB}(\mu, \alpha)$
of
$H_{SB}$
and a
vector
$\Psi\in \mathcal{F}\equiv \mathcal{F}_{b}\oplus \mathcal{F}_{b}$
such that
$\Psi$
overlaps
with
$\Omega_{SB}(\mu, \alpha)$
,
then
by Bloch
$\mathrm{s}$formula
(
$[\mathrm{B}\mathrm{l}\mathrm{o},$(12)
$]$and
see
Lemma
2.4 in
this
paper),
we
have
$E_{SB}( \mu, \alpha)=-\lim_{\betaarrow\infty}\frac{1}{\beta}\ln\langle\Psi, e^{-}\Psi\beta HsB\rangle_{\tau}$
.
So,
our
problenl
is
reduced to
that of
how to
find such
$\Psi$
that
we now
try to
calculate
$\langle\Psi .
e^{-\beta B}\Psi H_{S}\rangle_{f}$
in the concrete.
In
the
following
section,
we shall use several
unitary
trans-formations and the Du
Hammel
formula
so
that
we can
apply
the Feynman-Kac-Nelson
formu.la
for the free
field,
and we
shall find
that
either
$\Omega_{+}$
or
$\Omega_{-}$
is one of the
answers
for
the
problem above.
Here,
it is important that we employ the Feynman-Kac-Nelson formula
for the
free field
because
we can calculate
$\mathrm{a}\mathrm{c}\mathrm{t}\backslash$ually
and
concretely
the
ground
state
energy
of
the
spin-boson
model.
