Abstract

The authors prove a sharp criterion on the decay of the potential of a Schrodinger operator on R3 that ensures the absence of a zero-energy ground state. This condition complements results due to Simon and Lieb (1981). They also give an improved version of their results which, however, is still not optimal.
