We consider Schr\"odinger operators of the form $H_R = - d^2/ d x^2 + q + i \gamma \chi_{[0,R]}$ for large $R>0$, where $q \in L^1(0,\infty)$ and $\gamma > 0$. Bounds for the maximum magnitude of an eigenvalue and for the number of…

We survey results concerning the spectral properties of limit-periodic operators. The main focus is on discrete one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators, but other classes of operators, such as Jacobi and CMV matrices, continuum…

We prove that the spectrum of a limit-periodic Schr\"odinger operator is homogeneous in the sense of Carleson whenever the potential obeys the Pastur--Tkachenko condition. This implies that a dense set of limit-periodic Schr\"odinger…

Let $H_0$ be a purely absolutely continuous selfadjoint operator acting on some separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space and $V$ be a compact non-selfadjoint perturbation. We relate the regularity properties of $V$ to various spectral…

We analyze two-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators with the potential $|xy|^p - \lambda (x^2+y^2)^{p/(p+2)}$ where $p\ge 1$ and $\lambda\ge 0$. We show that there is a critical value of $\lambda$ such that the spectrum for…

We prove a dispersive estimate for the evolution of Schroedinger operators H = -\Delta + V(x) in three dimensions. The potential should belong to the closure of bounded compactly-supported functions with respect to the golbal Kato norm.…

The paper studies the spectral properties of the Schr\"odinger operator $A_{gV} = A_0 + gV$ on a homogeneous rooted metric tree, with a decaying real-valued potential $V$ and a coupling constant $g\ge 0$. The spectrum of the free Laplacian…

We study the effect of non-negative potentials on the spectral gap of one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators in the limit of large intervals. In particular, we derive upper and lower bounds on the gap for different classes of potentials…

In this note we provide an explicit lower bound on the spectral gap of one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators with non-negative bounded potentials and subject to Neumann boundary conditions.

We proved that Schr\"odinger operators with unbounded potentials $(H_{\alpha,\theta}u)_n=u_{n+1}+u_{n-1}+ \frac{g(\theta+n\alpha)}{f(\theta+n\alpha)} u_n$ have purely singular continuous spectrum on the set $\{E:…

We study Schr\"{o}dinger operator $H=-\Delta+V(x)$ in dimension two, $V(x)$ being a limit-periodic potential. We prove that the spectrum of $H$ contains a semiaxis and there is a family of generalized eigenfunctions at every point of this…

On L 2 (R), we consider the Schr\"odinger operator (1.1) H \k{o} = -- $\partial$ 2 $\partial$x 2 + v(x) -- \k{o}x, where v is a real analytic 1-periodic function and \k{o} is a positive constant. This operator is a model to study a Bloch…

We prove three results giving sufficient and/or necessary conditions for discreteness of the spectrum of Schr\"odinger operators with non-negative matrix-valued potentials, i.e., operators acting on $\psi\in L^2(\mathbb{R}^n,\mathbb{C}^d)$…

We study Schr\"odinger operators $H=-\Delta+V$ in $L^2(\Omega)$ where $\Omega$ is $\mathbb R^d$ or the half-space $\mathbb R_+^d$, subject to (real) Robin boundary conditions in the latter case. For $p>d$ we construct a non-real potential…

As a simple model for lattice defects like grain boundaries in solid state physics we consider potentials which are obtained from a periodic potential $V = V(x,y)$ on $\R^2$ with period lattice $\Z^2$ by setting $W_t(x,y) = V(x+t,y)$ for $x…

We show that whole-line Schr\"odinger operators with finitely many bound states have no embedded singular spectrum. In contradistinction, we show that embedded singular spectrum is possible even when the bound states approach the essential…
