Schr\"odinger operators with potentials generated by primitive substitutions are simple models for one dimensional quasi-crystals. We review recent results on their spectral properties. These include in particular an algorithmically…

We construct examples of potentials $V(x)$ satisfying $|V(x)| \leq \frac{h(x)}{1+x},$ where the function $h(x)$ is growing arbitrarily slowly, such that the corresponding Schr\"odinger operator has imbedded singular continuous spectrum.…

The absolutely continuous spectrum of one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators is proved to be stable under perturbation by potentials satisfying mild decay conditions. In particular, the absolutely continuous spectrum of free and periodic…

We study the multi-dimensional operator $(H_x u)_n=\sum_{|m-n|=1}u_{m}+f(T^n(x))u_n$, where $T$ is the shift of the torus $\T^d$. When $d=2$, we show the spectrum of $H_x$ is almost surely purely continuous for a.e. $\alpha$ and generic…

We provide sufficient conditions for the discreteness of spectrum for magnetic Schr\"odinger operators. They generalize the classical result by K.Friedrichs (1934) and earlier results by J.Avron, I.Herbst and B.Simon (1978), A.Dufresnoy…

We study Schr\"odinger operators on compact finite metric graphs subject to $\delta$-coupling and standard boundary conditions. We compare the $n$-th eigenvalues of those self-adjoint realizations and derive an asymptotic result for the…

We illustrate the thesis that if time did not exist, we would have to create it if space is noncommutative, and extend functions by something like Schroedinger's equation. We propose that the phenomenon is a somewhat general mechanism…

We consider discrete one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators with strictly ergodic, aperiodic potentials taking finitely many values. The well-known tendency of these operators to have purely singular continuous spectrum of zero Lebesgue…

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 develop an algebraic approach to studying the spectral properties of the stationary Schr\"odinger equation in one dimension based on its high order conditional symmetries. This approach makes it possible to obtain in explicit form…

We prove that the spectrum of certain non-self-adjoint Schrodinger operators is unstable in the semi-classical limit. Similar results hold for a fixed operator in the high energy limit. The method involves the construction of approximate…

In a series of recent papers the author has introduced the notion of (regular) pseudo-bosons showing, in particular, that two number-like operators, whose spectra are ${\Bbb N}_0:={\Bbb N}\cup\{0\}$, can be naturally introduced. Here we…

In this article, we prove the following spectral theorem for right linear normal operators (need not to be bounded) in quaternionic Hilbert spaces: Let $T$ be an unbounded right quaternionic linear normal operator in a quaternionic Hilbert…

We develop the basic theory of ergodic Schr\"odinger operators, which is well known for ergodic probability measures, in the case of a base dynamics on an infinite measure space. This includes the almost sure constancy of the spectrum and…

In this paper we find a new condition on a real periodic potential for which the self-adjoint Schr\"odinger operator may be defined by a quadratic form and the spectrum of the operator is purely absolutely continuous. This is based on…

We provide two examples of spectral analysis techniques of Schroedinger operators applied to geometric Laplacians. In particular we show how to adapt the method of analytic dilation to Laplacians on complete manifolds with corners of…

In this survey we discuss spectral and quantum dynamical properties of discrete one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators whose potentials are obtained by real-valued sampling along the orbits of an ergodic invertible transformation. After an…

We consider Schr\"odinger operators with periodic potentials on periodic discrete graphs. The spectrum of the Schr\"odinger operator consists of an absolutely continuous part (a union of a finite number of non-degenerated bands) plus a…
