Trace formulas appear in many forms in noncommutative geometry (NCG). In the first part of this thesis, we obtain results for asymptotic expansions of trace formulas like heat trace expansions by adapting the theory of Multiple Operator…

Index theory has had profound impact on many branches of mathematics. In this note we discuss the context for a new kind of index theorem. We begin, however, with some operator theoretic results. In [11] Berger and Shaw established that…

This paper deals with general structural properties of one-dimensional Schr"odinger operators with some absolutely continuous spectrum. The basic result says that the omega limit points of the potential under the shift map are…

The CMV matrices are the unitary analogs of Jacobi matrices. In the finite case, it is well-known that the set of Jacobi matrices with a fixed trace is nothing but a coadjoint orbit of the lower triangular group. In this note, we will give…

We consider the variety of spectral measures that are induced by quasitraces on the spectrum of a self-adjoint operator in a simple separable unital and Z-stable C$^*$-algebra. This amounts to a continuous map from the simplex of…

Generalized indefinite strings provide a canonical model for self-adjoint operators with simple spectrum (other classical models are Jacobi matrices, Krein strings and 2x2 canonical systems). We prove a number of Szeg\H{o}-type theorems for…

Adamjan-Arov (Lax--Phillips) model space is considered as a scattering representation space for a CMV matrix in context of an extended Marchenko--Faddeev scattering theory. That is, there exists a basis in which the multiplication by…

We study the trace functions in orbiford theory for Z-graded vertex operator superalgebras and obtain a modular invariance result. More precisely, let V be a C_2-cofinite Z-graded vertex operator superalgebra and G a finite automorphism…

Let V be a simple vertex operator algebra satisfying the following conditions: (i) The homogeneous subspaces of V of weights less than 0 are 0, the homogeneous subspace of V of weight 0 is spanned by the vacuum and V' is isomorphic to V as…

We give a simple proof of Borg type uniqueness Theorems for periodic Jacobi operators with matrix valued coefficients.

The BMV conjecture states that for $n\times n$ Hermitian matrices $A$ and $B$ the function $f_{A,B}(t)=trace{\, } e^{tA+B}$ is exponentially convex. Recently the BMV conjecture was proved by Herbert Stahl. The proof of Herbert Stahl is…

Let $V$ be a strongly regular vertex operator algebra. For a state $h \in V_1$ satisfying appropriate integrality conditions, we prove that the space spanned by the trace functions Tr$_Mq^{L(0)-c/24}\zeta^{h(0)} ($M$ a $V$-module) is a…

Results of Haagerup and Schultz (2009) about existence of invariant subspaces that decompose the Brown measure are extended to a large class of unbounded operators affiliated to a tracial von Neumann algebra. These subspaces are used to…

In this article we consider the Markovian products of invertible (not necessarily positive) matrices chosen from a strongly irreducible, contracting, finite set of matrices. We construct Markovian transfer operators and prove the spectral…

We investigate the symmetries of so-called generalized extended CMV matrices. It is well-documented that problems involving reflection symmetries of standard extended CMV matrices can be subtle. We show how to deal with this in an elegant…

We prove trace identities for commutators of operators, which are used to derive sum rules and sharp universal bounds for the eigenvalues of periodic Schroedinger operators and Schroedinger operators on immersed manifolds. In particular, we…
