We are interested in various aspects of spectral rigidity of Cayley and Schreier graphs of finitely generated groups. For each pair of integers $d\geq 2$ and $m \ge 1$, we consider an uncountable family of groups of automorphisms of the…

We prove a trace formula for three-dimensional spherically symmetric Riemannian manifolds with boundary which satisfy the Herglotz condition: The wave trace is singular precisely at the length spectrum of periodic broken rays. In…

We investigate quantum graphs with infinitely many vertices and edges without the common restriction on the geometry of the underlying metric graph that there is a positive lower bound on the lengths of its edges. Our central result is a…

We consider the Laplacian in a tubular neighbourhood of a hyperplane subjected to non-self-adjoint $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric Robin boundary conditions. Its spectrum is found to be purely essential and real for constant boundary conditions.…

We show that geometric disorder leads to purely singular continuous spectrum generically. The main input is a result of Simon known as the ``Wonderland theorem''. Here, we provide an alternative approach and actually a slight strengthening…

For the wave equation associated to the Laplacian on a compact manifold with boundary with a conic metric (with respect to which the boundary is metrically a point) the propagation of singularities through the boundary is analyzed. Under…

We introduce a family of post-critically finite fractal trees indexed by the number of branches they possess. Then we produce a Laplacian operator on graph approximations to these fractals and use spectral decimation to describe the…

We study the simple random walk on trees and give estimates on the mixing and relaxation time. Relying on a recent characterization by Basu, Hermon and Peres, we give geometric criteria, which are easy to verify and allow to determine…

The aim of this paper is to construct an explicit potential for the Dirac operator that has purely singular continuous spectrum. The characteristic trait of this potential is that it consists of bumps whose distance is growing rapidly. This…

We show the absolute continuity of the spectrum and determine the spectrum as a set for two classes of Hadamard manifolds and for specific domains and quotients of one of the classes.

We prove that the presence or absence of corners is spectrally determined in the following sense: any simply connected domain with piecewise smooth Lipschitz boundary cannot be isospectral to any connected domain, of any genus, which has…

The Spectre is an aperiodic monotile for the Euclidean plane that is truly chiral in the sense that it tiles the plane without any need for a reflected tile. The topological and dynamical properties of the Spectre tilings are very similar…

We study a spectral analog of the Tur\'an problem for simplicial complexes. Specifically, we consider the extremal problem of maximizing the signless Laplacian spectral radius among simplicial complexes without holes. We determine the…

We consider a family of random Schr\"odinger operators on the discrete strip with decaying random $\ell^2$ matrix potential. We prove that the spectrum is almost surely pure absolutely continuous, apart from random, possibly embedded…

A metric tree is a tree whose edges are viewed as line segments of positive length. The Dirac operator on such tree is the operator which operates on each edge, complemented by the matching conditions at the vertices which were given by…

The spectral properties of the restricted fractional Dirichlet Laplacian in ${\sf V}$-shaped waveguides are studied. The continuous spectrum for such domains with cylindrical outlets is known to occupy the ray $[\Lambda_\dagger, +\infty)$…

We prove that the completely irregular set is Baire generic for every non-uniquely ergodic transitive continuous map which satisfies the shadowing property and acts on a compact metric space without isolated points. We also show that, under…

For a connected graph, the distance spectral radius is the largest eigenvalue of its distance matrix. In this paper, of all trees with both given order and fixed diameter, the trees with the minimal distance spectral radius are completely…

A Riemannian orbifold is a mildly singular generalization of a Riemannian manifold that is locally modeled on $R^n$ modulo the action of a finite group. Orbifolds have proven interesting in a variety of settings. Spectral geometers have…

We prove sharp criteria on the behavior of radial curvature for the existence of asymptotically flat or hyperbolic Riemannian manifolds with prescribed sets of eigenvalues embedded in the spectrum of the Laplacian. In particular, we…
