We investigate the spectrum of the spin Dirac operator on families of hyperbolic surfaces where a set of disjoint simple geodesics shrink to $0$, under the hypothesis that the spin structure is non-trivial along each pinched geodesic. The…

We present a simple, computation free and geometrical proof of the following classical result: for a diffeomorphism of a manifold, any compact submanifold which is invariant and normally hyperbolic persists under small perturbations of the…

A study of smooth contact quasiconformal mappings of the hyperbolic Heisenberg group is presented in this paper. Our main result is a Lifting Theorem; according to this, a symplectic quasiconformal mapping of the hyperbolic plane can be…

We investigate the statistical properties of a piecewise smooth dynamical system by studying directly the action of the transfer operator on appropriate spaces of distributions. We accomplish such a program in the case of two-dimensional…

We investigate trace formulas for one-dimensional Schroedinger operators which are trace class perturbations of quasi-periodic finite-gap operators using Krein's spectral shift theory. In particular, we establish the conserved quantities…

Let $A$ be a H\"older continuous cocycle over a hyperbolic dynamical system with values in the group of diffeomorphisms of a compact manifold $M$. We consider the periodic data of $A$, i.e., the set of its return values along the periodic…

This paper is devoted to the description of our recent results on the spectral behavior of one-dimensional adiabatic quasi-periodic Schrodinger operators. The specific operator we study is a slow periodic perturbation of an incommensurate…

Fix a number $g>1$, let $S$ be a close surface of genus $g$, and $Teich(S)$ be the Teichm\"uller space of $S$ endowed with the Weil-Petersson metric. In this paper we show that the Riemannian sectional curvature operator of $Teich(S)$ is…

We consider in this Note resonances for a $h$-Pseudo-Differential Operator $H(x,hD_x;h)$ on $L^2(M)$ induced by a periodic orbit of hyperbolic type, as arises for Schr\"odinger operator with AC Stark effect when $M={\bf R}^n$, or the…

We consider transformations preserving a contracting foliation, such that the associated quotient map satisfies a Lasota-Yorke inequality. We prove that the associated transfer operator, acting on suitable normed spaces, has a spectral gap…

For a time dependent Schr\"odinger equation, the scattering map is the map sending the asymptotic profile of solution as $t\to-\infty$ to its asymptotic profile as $t\to+\infty$. In this paper we show that, for certain class of metrics, the…

We give a simple argument that if a quasiperiodic multi-frequency Schr\"odinger cocycle is reducible to a constant rotation for almost all energies with respect to the density of states measure, then the spectrum of the dual operator is…

We prove that, under a mild condition on the hyperbolicity of its periodic points, a map $g$ which is topologically conjugated to a hyperbolic map (respectively, an expanding map) is also a hyperbolic map (respectively, an expanding map).…

This note is about the spectral properties of transfer operators associated to smooth hyperbolic dynamics. In the first two sections (written in 2006), we state our new results relating such spectra with dynamical determinants, first…

We consider the quasi-periodic Schr\"odinger operator with the non-degenerate Gevrey potential for the Diophantine frequency. We prove that if the coupling number of the potential is large, then the spectrum is homogeneous.

We consider a semi-periodic two-dimensional Schr\"odinger operator which is cut at an angle. When the cut is commensurate with the periodic lattice, the spectrum of the operator has the band-gap Bloch structure. We prove that in the…

We consider semi-excited resonances created by a periodic orbit of hyperbolic type for Schr\"odinger type operators with a small "Planck constant". They are defined within an analytic framework based on the semi-classical quantization of…

We study ergodic Schr\"odinger operators defined over product dynamical systems in which one factor is periodic and the other factor is either a subshift over a finite alphabet or an irrational rotation of the circle. In the case in which…

We study $C^r$ ($5 \le r \le \infty$) diffeomorphisms on closed manifolds of dimension at least three with a heteroclinic cycle between two hyperbolic periodic points. At each point, the unstable direction is one dimensional, and the stable…

We consider Schr\"odinger operators with periodic potentials on periodic discrete graphs. Their spectrum consists of a finite number of bands. We obtain two-sided estimates of the total bandwidth for the Schr\"odinger operators in terms of…
