We consider semiclassical self-adjoint operators whose symbol, defined on a two-dimensional symplectic manifold, reaches a non-degenerate minimum $b_0$ on a closed curve. We derive a classical and quantum normal form which allows us, in…
We shall study the solvability of pseudodifferential operators which are not of principal type. The operator will have real principal symbol and we shall consider the limits of bicharacteristics at the set where the principal symbol…
There has been much recent interest, initiated by work of the physicists Hatano and Nelson, in the eigenvalues of certain random non-Hermitian periodic tridiagonal matrices and their bidiagonal limits. These eigenvalues cluster along a…
For operators belonging either to a class of global bisingular pseudodifferential operators on $R^m \times R^n$ or to a class of bisingular pseudodifferential operators on a product $M \times N$ of two closed smooth manifolds, we show the…
We prove dispersive estimates for the wave and Schrodinger groups associated to a second-order elliptic self-adjoint operator depending on a semi-classical parameter. Applications are made to non-trapping metric perturbations and to…
We prove that any symmetric Hamiltonian that is a quadratic function of the coordinates and momenta has a pseudo-Hermitian adjoint or regular matrix representation. The eigenvalues of the latter matrix are the natural frequencies of the…
The notion of quasi boundary triples and their Weyl functions is an abstract concept to treat spectral and boundary value problems for elliptic partial differential equations. In the present paper the abstract notion is further developed,…
Let $P(h),h\in]0,1]$ be a semiclassical scalar differential operator of order $2$. The existence of a supersymmetric structure given by a matrix $G(x;h)$ was exhibited in \cite{HeHiSj13} under rather general assumptions. In this note we…
Consider a semiclassical Hamiltonian \begin{equation*} H_{V, h} := h^{2} \Delta + V - E \end{equation*} where $h > 0$ is a semiclassical parameter, $\Delta$ is the positive Laplacian on $\mathbb{R}^{d}$, $V$ is a smooth, compactly supported…
We analyze the semiclassical $d$-dimensional Schr\"{o}dinger operator in the continuum $ \frac{1}{2} \Delta + \lambda_N^2 V$ discretized on a mesh with spacing proportional to $1/N$. The semi-classical parameter $\lambda_N$ is chosen as…

We consider a class of (possibly nondiagonalizable) pseudo-Hermitian operators with discrete spectrum, showing that in no case (unless they are diagonalizable and have a real spectrum) they are Hermitian with respect to a semidefinite inner…
We generalize the Donsker-Varadhan minimax formula for the principal eigenvalue of a uniformly elliptic operator in nondivergence form to the first principal half-eigenvalue of a fully nonlinear operator which is concave (or convex) and…
We obtain semiclassical resolvent estimates for the Schr{\"o}dinger operator (ih$\nabla$ + b)^2 + V in R^d , d $\ge$ 3, where h is a semiclassical parameter, V and b are real-valued electric and magnetic potentials independent of h. Under…
Let $m\in \mathbb{N}$, $\alpha\in[0,1]$, and $V$ be a 1-periodic complex-valued distribution in the negative Sobolev space $H^{-m\alpha}[0,1]$. The singular non-self-adjoint eigenvalue problem $D^{2m}u+V u=\lambda u$, $D=-i d/dx$, with…
Finite rank perturbations of a semi-bounded self-adjoint operator A are studied in the scale of Hilbert spaces associated with A. A concept of quasi-boundary value space is used to describe self-adjoint operator realizations of regular and…
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…
In this article, we obtain some results in the direction of ``infinite dimensional symplectic spectral theory". We prove an inequality between the eigenvalues and symplectic eigenvalues of a special class of infinite dimensional operators.…
