Starting from the integral representation of the three-dimensional Coulomb transition matrix elaborated by us formerly with the use of specific symmetry of the interaction in a four-dimensional Euclidean space introduced by Fock, the possibility of the analytical solving of the integral equation for the partial wave transition matrices at the excited bound state energy has been studied. New analytical expressions for the partial s-, p- and d-wave Coulomb t-matrices for like-charged particles and the expression for the partial d-wave t-matrix for unlike-charged particles at the energy of the first excited bound state have been derived., Comment: 8 pages

We study a special case at which the analytical solution of the Lippmann-Schwinger integral equation for the partial wave two-body Coulomb transition matrix for likely charged particles at negative energy is possible. With the use of the Fock's method of the stereographic projection of the momentum space onto the four-dimensional unit sphere, the analytical expressions for s-, p- and d-wave partial Coulomb transition matrices for repulsively interacting particles at bound-state energy have been derived., Comment: 10 pages

Leaning upon the Fock method of the stereographic projection of the three-dimensional momentum space onto the four-dimensional unit sphere the possibility of the analytical solving of the Lippmann-Schwinger integral equation for the partial wave two-body Coulomb transition matrix at the ground bound state energy has been studied. In this case new expressions for the partial p-, d- and f-wave two-body Coulomb transition matrices have been obtained in the simple analytical form. The developed approach can also be extended to determine analytically the partial wave Coulomb transition matrices at the energies of excited bound states.

The direct transition-matrix approach to the description of the electric polarization of the quantum bound system of particles is used to determine the electric multipole polarizabilities of the hydrogen-like atoms. It is shown that in the case of the bound system formed by the Coulomb interaction the corresponding inhomogeneous integral equation determining an off-shell scattering function, which consistently describes virtual multiple scattering, can be solved exactly analytically for all electric multipole polarizabilities. Our method allows to reproduce the known Dalgarno-Lewis formula for electric multipole polarizabilities of the hydrogen atom in the ground state and can also be applied to determine the polarizability of the atom in excited bound states., Comment: 20 pages

A new general formalism for determining the electric multipole polarizabilities of quantum (atomic and nuclear) bound systems based on the use of the transition matrix in momentum space has been developed. As distinct from the conventional approach with the application of the spectral expansion of the total Green's function, our approach does not require preliminary determination of the entire unperturbated spectrum; instead, it makes possible to calculate the polarizability of a few-body bound complex directly based on solving integral equations for the wave function of the ground bound state and the transition matrix at negative energy, both of them being real functions of momenta. A formula for the multipole polarizabilities of a two-body bound complex formed by a central interaction potential has been derived and studied. To test, the developed $T$-matrix formalism has been applied to the calculation of the dipole, quadrupole and octupole polarizabilities of the hydrogen atom., Comment: 14 pages; Keywords: Electric multipole polarizabilities; few-body quantum systems; hydrogen atom; PACS Nos.: 21.10.Ky; 21.45.+v; 32.10.Dk
