Abstract
The Birman-Schwinger principle is a widely used and well-established tool in mathematical quantum mechanics. It was introduced through the independent works of Birman [10] and Schwinger [81], with the idea of counting or at least estimating the number of eigenvalues of Schrödinger operators on \(L^2(\mathbb R^n)\).
