In this paper, for d > 2, we prove the absolute continuity of the spectrum of a d-dimensional periodic Dirac operator with some discontinuous magnetic and electric potentials. In particular, for d = 3, electric potentials from Zygmund…
The purpose of this paper is to show that the operator \begin{equation*} H\left(h\right) =-h^{2}\Delta_{x}-\Delta_{y}+V\left(x,y\right), \end{equation*}% $V$ is continuous (or $V\in L^{2}\left(\mathbb{R}_{x}^{n}\times…
We consider Sch\"odinger operators on the half-line, both discrete and continuous, and show that the absence of bound states implies the absence of embedded singular spectrum. More precisely, in the discrete case we prove that if $\Delta +…
The absolute continuity of the spectrum for the periodic Dirac operator $$ \hat D=\sum_{j=1}^n(-i\frac {\partial}{\partial x_j}-A_j)\hat \alpha_j + \hat V^{(0)}+\hat V^{(1)}, x\in R^n, n\geq 3, $$ is proved given that either $A\in…

We consider the discrete Schr\"odinger operator $H=-\Delta+V$ with a sparse potential $V$ and find conditions guaranteeing either existence of wave operators for the pair $H$ and $H_0=-\Delta$, or presence of dense purely point spectrum of…
Under certain assumptions we derive a complete semiclassical asymptotics of the spectral function $e_{h,\varepsilon}(x,x,\lambda)$ for a scalar operator \begin{equation*} A_\varepsilon (x,hD)= A^0(hD) + \varepsilon B(x,hD), \end{equation*}…

We prove the complete asymptotic expansion of the spectral function (the integral kernel of the spectral projection) of a Schrodinger operator $H=-\Delta+b$ acting in $R^d$ when the potential $b$ is real and either smooth periodic, or…
In this paper we obtain the asymptotic formulas of arbitrary order for the Bloch eigenvalues and Bloch functions of the multidimensional polyharmonic operator with periodic, with respect to arbitrary lattice, potential. Then we prove that…
We discuss spectral properties of the one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operator with a potential of the form $\sum V(n)\delta(x-n)$. Our main result says that the absolutely continuous spectum of such an operator covers an interval…
Consider in $L^2(\R)$ the \Sc operator family $H(g):=-d^2_x+V_g(x)$ depending on the real parameter $g$, where $V_g(x)$ is a complex-valued but $PT$ symmetric periodic potential. An explicit condition on $V$ is obtained which ensures that…
Let $H = -d^2/dx^2 + q(x)$, $x \in \mathbb{R}$, where $q(x)$ is a periodic potential, and suppose that the spectrum $\sigma(H)$ of $H$ is the positive semi-axis $[0, \infty)$. In the case where $q(x)$ is real-valued (and locally…

We consider the operator $H={d^4dt^4}+{ddt}p{ddt}+q$ with 1-periodic coefficients on the real line. The spectrum of $H$ is absolutely continuous and consists of intervals separated by gaps. We describe the spectrum of this operator in terms…
We study the multi-dimensional operator $(H_x u)_n=\sum_{|m-n|=1}u_{m}+f(T^n(x))u_n$, where $T$ is the shift of the torus $\T^d$. When $d=2$, we show the spectrum of $H_x$ is almost surely purely continuous for a.e. $\alpha$ and generic…

We prove that the spectrum of the almost Mathieu operator is absolutely continuous if and only if the coupling is subcritical. This settles Problem 6 of Barry Simon's list of Schr\"odinger operator problems for the twenty-first century.
