We investigate the equality of inertial and gravitational mass in the Brans-Dicke theory of gravitation in both the classical and quantum case. We derive a general expression for the ratio of inertial to gravitational mass for any classical static or quasistatic system. Although the ratio differs fr
It is proved that the quantum mechanical Hamiltonian H = Cy=, (p' + n~\\*)l'~ -K ci>jlxi -xj(-r for bosons (resp. fermions) is bounded from below if N c;K-' (resp. N > c;K3'\\*). The constants cD and CA (resp. c, and c;) differ by about a factor 2 (resp. 4).
