We prove that the Hausdorff dimension of the spectrum of a discrete Schr\"odinger operator with Sturmian potential of bounded type tends to one as coupling tends to zero. The proof is based on the trace map formalism.
We consider one dimensional quantum Ising spin-1/2 chains with two-valued nearest neighbor couplings arranged in a quasi-periodic sequence, with uniform, transverse magnetic field. By employing the Jordan-Wigner transformation of the spin…
