Spectral Theory
About 25 years ago our article "Mourre theory for analytically fibered operators" was published in J. of Functional Analysis. This article proposed a general construction of a conjugate operator for a wide class of self-adjoint analytically…
We consider the magnetic Laplacian with the homogeneous magnetic field in two and three dimensions. We prove that the $(k+1)$-th magnetic Neumann eigenvalue of a bounded convex planar domain is not larger than its $k$-th magnetic Dirichlet…
We establish Anderson localization for Schr\"odinger operators with even analytic potentials on the first supercritical stratum for Liouville frequencies in the sharp regime $\{E: L(\omega,E)>\beta(\omega)>0, \kappa(\omega,E)=1\}$, with…
We obtain a central limit theorem for bulk counting statistics of free fermions in smooth domains of $\mathbb{R}^n$ with an explicit description of the covariance structure. This amounts to a study of the asymptotics of norms of commutators…
We provide in this Letter a two-point generalisation of the Agmon estimate for Schr\"odinger operators on graphs recently established by S. Steinerberger. It reduces to his estimate when the two points belong to different sets separated by…
Let $X$ be a finite-area non-compact hyperbolic surface. We study the spectrum of the Laplacian on random covering surfaces of X and on random unitary bundles over X. We show that there is a constant $c > 0$ such that, with probability…
We derive an expression for the spectral determinant of a second-order elliptic differential operator $\mathcal{T}$ defined on the whole real line, in terms of the Wronskians of two particular solutions of the equation $\mathcal{T} u=0$.…
We prove that dynamically defined Jacobi and CMV matrices associated with generic continuous sampling functions have all gaps predicted by the Gap Labelling Theorem open. We also give a mechanism for generic gap opening for quasi-periodic…
We establish a density one version of Braak's conjecture on the fine structure of the spectrum of the quantum Rabi model, as well as a recent conjecture of Braak, Nguyen, Reyes-Bustos and Wakayama on the nearest neighbor spacings of the…
Based on the main result presented in a recent paper, we derive Ambarzumian-type theorems for Schr\"odinger operators defined on quantum graphs. We recover existing results such as the classical theorem by Ambarzumian and establish some…
We study the point spectrum of a second order difference operator with complex potential on the half-line via Fredholm determinants of the corresponding Birman-Schwinger operator pencils, the Evans and the Jost functions. An application is…
We study asymptotic spectral properties of the Bochner-Schr\"odinger operator $H_{p}=\frac 1p\Delta^{L^p\otimes E}+V$ on high tensor powers of a Hermitian line bundle $L$ twisted by a Hermitian vector bundle $E$ on a Riemannian manifold $X$…
Quantum graphs without interaction which contain equilateral cycles possess "topological" bound states which do not correspond to zeroes of one of the two variants of the secular equation for quantum graphs. Instead, their eigenvalues lie…
In this paper, we study the problem of scattering by several strictly convex obstacles, with smooth boundary and satisfying a non eclipse condition. We show, in dimension 2 only, the existence of a spectral gap for the meromorphic…
In [6] Cho and Tanahashi showe new spectral mapping theorem of the taylor spectrum for doubly commuting pairs of p-hyponormal operators and log-hyponormal operators. In this paper, we will show that same spectral mapping theorem holds for…
We are interested in the number of nodal domains of eigenfunctions of sub-Laplacians on sub-Riemannian manifolds. Specifically, we investigate the validity of Pleijel's theorem, which states that, as soon as the dimension is strictly larger…
Paszkiewicz's conjecture asserts that given a decreasing sequence $T_1\ge T_2\ge \dots$ of positive contractions on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space $H$, the product $S_n=T_nT_{n-1}\cdots T_1$ converges in the strong operator…
A closed formula for the spectral determinant for the wave equation on a bounded interval, subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions and an $\alpha$-multiple of the Dirac $\delta$-type damping, is derived. Depending on the choice of the…
Several classes of tempered measures are characterised that are eigenmeasures of the Fourier transform, the latter viewed as a linear operator on (generally unbounded) Radon measures on $\RR^d$. In particular, we classify all periodic…
We discuss the self-adjointness in $L^2$-setting of the operators acting as $-\nabla\cdot h\nabla$, with piecewise constant functions $h$ having a jump along a Lipschitz hypersurface $\Sigma$, without explicit assumptions on the sign of…
