Spectral Theory
Suppose $\mathcal{A}$ is a compact normal operator on a Hilbert space $H$ with certain lacunarity condition on the spectrum (which means, in particular, that its eigenvalues go to zero exponentially fast), and let $\mathcal{L}$ be its rank…
We develop the basic theory of ergodic Schr\"odinger operators, which is well known for ergodic probability measures, in the case of a base dynamics on an infinite measure space. This includes the almost sure constancy of the spectrum and…
We continue the work of a previous paper \cite{LJL} to derive the dispersion relations of the periodic quantum graphs associated with the remaining 5 of the 11 Archimedean tilings, namely the truncated hexagonal tiling $(3,12^2)$,…
There are totally 11 kinds of Archimedean tiling for the plane. Applying the Floquet-Bloch theory, we derive the dispersion relations of the periodic quantum graphs associated with a number of Archimedean tiling, namely the triangular…
We introduce the concept of essential numerical range $W_{\!e}(T)$ for unbounded Hilbert space operators $T$ and study its fundamental properties including possible equivalent characterizations and perturbation results. Many of the…
We consider disordered Hamiltonians given by the Laplace operator subject to arbitrary random self-adjoint singular perturbations supported on random discrete subsets of the real line. Under minimal assumptions on the type of disorder, we…
This paper deals with the $L_p$-spectrum of Schr\"odinger operators on the hyperbolic plane. We establish Lieb-Thirring type inequalities for discrete eigenvalues and study their dependence on $p$. Some bounds on individual eigenvalues are…
This article is concerned with properties of delocalization for eigenfunctions of Schr\"odinger operators on large finite graphs. More specifically, we show that the eigenfunctions have a large support and we assess their lp-norms. Our…
We proved that Schr\"odinger operators with unbounded potentials $(H_{\alpha,\theta}u)_n=u_{n+1}+u_{n-1}+ \frac{g(\theta+n\alpha)}{f(\theta+n\alpha)} u_n$ have purely singular continuous spectrum on the set $\{E:…
In this paper, we introduce the B-discrete spectrum of an unbounded closed operator and we prove that a closed operator has a purely B-discrete spectrum if and only if it has a meromorphic resolvent. After that, we study the stability of…
Multiplicative and additive $D$-stability, diagonal stability, Schur $D$-stability, $H$-stability are classical concepts which arise in studying linear dynamical systems. We unify these types of stability, as well as many others, in one…
It is well known from the Perron-Frobenius theory that the spectral gap of a positive square matrix is positive. In this paper, we give a more quantitative characterization of the spectral gap. More specifically, using a complex extension…
We determine the asymptotic behaviour of eigenvalues of clamped plates under large compression, by relating this problem to eigenvalues of the Laplacian with Robin boundary conditions. Using the method of fundamental solutions, we then…
In this paper the discrete eigenvalues of elliptic second order differential operators in $L^2(\mathbb{R}^n)$, $n \in \mathbb{N}$, with singular $\delta$- and $\delta'$-interactions are studied. We show the self-adjointness of these…
In this paper, the authors consider leaf spaces of singular Riemannian foliations $\mathcal{F}$ on compact manifolds $M$ and the associated $\mathcal{F}$-basic spectrum on $M$, $spec_B(M, \mathcal{F}),$ counted with multiplicities.…
We study the zeros of cross-product of Bessel functions and obtain their approximations, based on which we reduce the eigenvalue counting problem for the Dirichlet Laplacian associated with a planar annulus to a lattice point counting…
In this paper we construct a Birkhoff normal form for a semiclassical magnetic Schr{\"o}dinger operator with non-degenerate magnetic field, and discrete magnetic well, defined on an even dimensional riemannian manifold M. We use this normal…
We consider canonical systems and investigate the Szeg\H{o} class, which is defined via the finiteness of the associated entropy functional. Noting that the canonical system may be studied in a variety of gauges, we choose to work in the…
We consider the difference $f(H_1)-f(H_0)$, where $H_0=-\Delta$ and $H_1=-\Delta+V$ are the free and the perturbed Schr\"odinger operators in $L^2(\mathbb R^d)$, and $V$ is a real-valued short range potential. We give a sharp sufficient…
We study an eigenvalue problem for the biharmonic operator with Neumann boundary conditions on domains of Riemannian manifolds. We discuss the weak formulation and the classical boundary conditions, and we describe a few properties of the…
