We establish dispersive time-decay estimates for periodic Jacobi operators on the discrete half-line, $\N$. Specifically, we prove $t^{-1/2}$ decay in the weighted $\ell^\infty_{-1}$ norm for all such operators. For the global $\ell^1 \to…
Our main result asserts that a certain natural non-linear operator on Jacobi matrices built by a hyperbolic polynomial with real Julia set is a contraction in operator norm if the polynomial is sufficiently hyperbolic. This allows us to get…
We present an unified framework to identify spectra of Jacobi matrices. We give applications to long-standing conjecture of Chihara concerning one-quarter class of orthogonal polynomials, to the conjecture posed by Roehner and Valent…
The determination of the spectrum of a Schr\"odinger operator is a fundamental problem in mathematical quantum mechanics. We discuss a series of results showing that Schr\"odinger operators can exhibit spectra that are remarkably thin in…

This paper provides decay bounds for Green matrices and generalized eigenvectors of block Jacobi operators when the real part of the spectral parameter lies in a bounded gap of the operator's essential spectrum. The case of the spectral…
In general, point spectrum of an almost periodic Jacobi matrix can depend on the element of the hull. In this paper, we study the hull of the limit-periodic Jacobi matrix corresponding to the equilibrium measure of the Julia set of the…
We study how the spectrum of a Jacobi operator changes when this operator is modified by a certain finite rank perturbation. The operator corresponds to an infinite mass-spring system and the perturbation is obtained by modifying one…
We study the spectrum of unbounded J-self-adjoint block operator matrices. In particular, we prove enclosures for the spectrum, provide a sufficient condition for the spectrum being real and derive variational principles for certain real…
Spectral operators of matrices proposed recently in [C. Ding, D.F. Sun, J. Sun, and K.C. Toh, Math. Program. {\bf 168}, 509--531 (2018)] are a class of matrix valued functions, which map matrices to matrices by applying a vector-to-vector…
Given $n$ i.i.d. observations, we study the problem of estimating the spectrum of weighted Laplace operators of the form $\Delta_f=\Delta + \alpha \nabla \log f\cdot \nabla$, where $f$ is a positive probability density on a known compact…

Jacobi operators appear as kinetic operators of several classes of noncommutative field theories (NCFT) considered recently. This paper deals with the case of bounded Jacobi operators. A set of tools mainly issued from operator and spectral…
We present several new asymptotic trace formulas for Jacobi matrices whose coefficients satisfy a small deviation condition. Our results extend most of the existing trace formulas for Jacobi matrices.
In this paper we study spectral properties of Jacobi operators. In particular, we prove two main results: (1) that perturbing the diagonal coefficients of Jacobi operator, in an appropriate sense, results in exponential localization, and…
In this paper, a family of random Jacobi matrices, with off-diagonal terms that exhibit power-law growth, is studied. Since the growth of the randomness is slower than that of these terms, it is possible to use methods applied in the study…
From the general inverse theory of periodic Jacobi matrices, it is known that a periodic Jacobi matrix of minimal period $p \geq 2$ may have at most $p-2$ closed spectral gaps. We discuss the maximal number of closed gaps for…
We introduce computational strategies for measuring the ``size'' of the spectrum of bounded self-adjoint operators using various metrics such as the Lebesgue measure, fractal dimensions, the number of connected components (or gaps), and…
For a Jacobi matrix J on l^2(Z_+) with Ju(n)=a_{n-1} u(n-1) + b_n u(n) + a_n u(n+1), we prove that \sum_{|E|>2} (E^2 -4)^{1/2} \leq \sum_n |b_n| + 4\sum_n |a_n -1|. We also prove bounds on higher moments and some related results in higher…
