Can we determine when the lowest-energy state cannot be annihilated by any local operator, just by inspection of the Hamiltonian?

Relativistic quantum field theory (QFT) has the property that the lowest-energy state cannot be annihilated by any operator that is localized in a finite region of space (references 1,2,3). In other ...

2 entangled electrons in QFT

In field theory, by quantizing a dirac field, we can obtain a creation operator for a single electron of definite momentum, of definite spin up or down, these respectively are: $$a^\dagger_{+}(p)|0\...
