We begin by reviewing Zhu's theorem on modular invariance of trace functions associated to a vertex operator algebra, as well as a generalisation by the author to vertex operator superalgebras. This generalisation involves objects that we…
We turn back to the well known problem of interpretation of the Schrodinger operator with the pseudopotential being the first derivative of the Dirac function. We show that the problem in its conventional formulation contains hidden…
We show how multifractal properties of a measure supported by a fractal F contained in [0,1] may be expressed in terms of complementary intervals of F and thus in terms of spectral triples and the Dixmier trace of certain operators. For…
We consider various closed (and self-adjoint) extensions of elliptic differential expressions of the type $\cA=\sum_{0\le |\alpha|,|\beta|\le m}(-1)^\alpha D^\alpha a_{\alpha, \beta}(x)D^\beta$, $a_{\alpha, \beta}(\cdot)\in…
We continue the study of the relationship between Dixmier traces and noncommutative residues initiated by A. Connes. The utility of the residue approach to Dixmier traces is shown by a characterisation of the noncommutative integral in…
Replacing operators with continuous operator-valued functions, we prove time-dependent versions of well-known results on compressions and diagonals of bounded operators. The setting of smooth functions is also addressed. Our results have no…
We study differential operators associated with families of polynomials orthonormal with respect to certain measures. These operators, when applied to the Fourier transforms of such measures, produce basis functions for expansions of…
This paper is based on talks delivered in summer 2008 at the Conference on Motives, QFT and Pseudodifferential Operators in Boston, and at the Trimester programme Geometry and Physics, Hausdorff Institute for Mathematics in Bonn The paper…
We prove trace identities for commutators of operators, which are used to derive sum rules and sharp universal bounds for the eigenvalues of periodic Schroedinger operators and Schroedinger operators on immersed manifolds. In particular, we…
We consider contractive operators $T$ that are trace class perturbations of a unitary operator $U$. We prove that the dimension functions of the absolutely continuous spectrum of $T$, $T^*$ and of $U$ coincide. In particular, if $U$ has a…
Koplienko [Ko] found a trace formula for perturbations of self-adjoint operators by operators of Hilbert Schmidt class $\bS_2$. A similar formula in the case of unitary operators was obtained by Neidhardt [N]. In this paper we improve their…
It is shown that the nonselfadjoint (and non-normal) linear ordinary differential operators of a certain class are spectral operators of scalar type in the sense of Dunford and Bade. Operators of this kind appear in physical problems such…
We identify Melrose's suspended algebra of pseudodifferential operators with a subalgebra of the algebra of parametric pseudodifferential operators with parameter space $\R$. For a general algebra of parametric pseudodifferential operators,…
Observables of a quantum system, described by self-adjoint operators in a von Neumann algebra or affiliated with it in the unbounded case, form a conditionally complete lattice when equipped with the spectral order. Using this…
We consider the difference $f(-\Delta +V)-f(-\Delta)$ of functions of Schr\"odinger operators in $L^2(\mathbb R^d)$ and provide conditions under which this difference is trace class. We are particularly interested in non-smooth functions…
Let $H_0$, $H$ be a pair of self-adjoint operators for which the standard assumptions of the smooth version of scattering theory hold true. We give an explicit description of the absolutely continuous spectrum of the operator…
We study spectral properties of one-dimensional singular perturbations of an unbounded selfadjoint operator and give criteria for the possibility to remove the whole spectrum by a perturbation of this type. A counterpart of our results for…
The principal aim in this paper is to develop an effective and unified approach to the computation of traces of resolvents (and resolvent differences), Fredholm determinants, $\zeta$-functions, and $\zeta$-function regularized determinants…
A first order trace formula is obtained for a regular differential operator perturbed by a finite signed measure multiplication operator.
We obtain general trace formulae in the case of perturbation of self-adjoint operators by self-adjoint operators of class $\bS_m$, where $m$ is a positive integer. In \cite{PSS} a trace formula for operator Taylor polynomials was obtained.…
