Bound-state variational wave equation for fermion systems in quantum electrodynamics
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We present a formulation of the Hamiltonian variational method for quantum electrodynamics (QED) that enables the derivation of a relativistic few-fermion wave equation that can account, at least in principle, for interactions to any order of the coupling constant. We derive a relativistic two-fermion wave equation using this approach. The interaction kernel of the equation is shown to be the generalized invariant [Formula: see text] matrix including all orders of Feynman diagrams. The result is obtained rigorously from the underlying quantum field theory (QFT) for an arbitrary mass ratio of the two fermions. Our approach is based on three key points: a reformulation of QED, the variational method, and adiabatic hypothesis. As an application, we calculate the one-loop contribution of radiative corrections to the two-fermion binding energy for singlet states with arbitrary principal quantum number n, and [Formula: see text] = J = 0. Our calculations are carried out in the explicitly covariant Feynman gauge.PACS Nos.: 12.20.–m

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
