Cwikel's bound is extended to an operator-valued setting. One application of this result is a semi-classical bound for the number of negative bound states for Schrödinger operators with operator-valued potentials. We recover Cwikel's bound for the Lieb-Thirring constant$L$_{0,3}which is far worse than the best available by Lieb (for scalar potentials). However, it leads to a uniform bound (in the dimension$d$≥3) for the quotient$L$_{0,d}/L^{cl}_{0,d}is the so-called classical constant. This gives some improvement in large dimensions.

Let$M$be a non-compact connected Riemann surface of a finite type, and$R$⋐$M$be a relatively compact domain such that$H$_{1}($M$,$Z$)=$H$_{1}($R$,$Z$). Let $$\tilde R \to R$$ be a covering. We study the algebra$H$^{∞}($U$) of bounded holomorphic functions defined in certain subdomains $$U \subset \tilde R$$ . Our main result is a Forelli type theorem on projections in$H$^{∞}($D$).
