Abstract: Lower bounds on the pointwise spatial decay of the ground state of the Pauli-Fierz model in non-relativistic quantum electrodynamics are studied. Two models are considered: the full Pauli-Fierz model and the Pauli-Fierz model under the dipole approximation. For the full model, a lower bound is derived by means of a probabilistic approach based on the Feynman-Kac formula. The application of the Agmon distance method to the full model encounters a serious difficulty arising from the path dependence of a double stochastic integral. In contrast, under the dipole approximation, the corresponding integrand becomes deterministic, which allows a lower bound to be obtained in terms of the Agmon distance.
