We consider a family of operators $-\Delta+ t V$ with a slowly decaying and oscillating potential $V$. We prove that the absolutely continuous spectrum of this operator is essentially supported by $[0,\infty)$ for almost every $t$.
This paper concerns spectral stability and time evolution of $N$-solitons in the KdV hierarchy with mixed commuting time flows. Spectral stability problem is analyzed by using a pair of self-adjoint operators with finite numbers of negative…
The paper gives first quantitative estimates on the modulus of continuity of the spectral measure for weak mixing suspension flows over substitution automorphisms, which yield information about the "fractal" structure of these measures. The…
We consider smooth area-preserving flows (also known as locally Hamiltonian flows) on surfaces of genus $g\geq 1$ and study ergodic integrals of smooth observables along the flow trajectories. We show that these integrals display a…
This article is a first step towards the understanding of the dynamics of the horocycle flow on foliated manifolds by hyperbolic surfaces. This is motivated by a question formulated by M. Martinez and A. Verjovsky on the minimality of this…
We study dynamics of the horocycle flow on strata of translation surfaces, introduce new invariants for ergodic measures, and analyze the interaction of the horocycle flow and real Rel surgeries. We use this analysis to complete and extend…
We apply a method inspired by Ratner's work on quantitative mixing for the geodesic flow (Ergod. Theory Dyn. Syst., 1987) and developed by Burger (Duke Math. J., 1990) to study ergodic integrals for horocycle flows. We derive an explicit…
It is known that the spectral type of the almost Mathieu operator depends in a fundamental way on both the strength of the coupling constant and the arithmetic properties of the frequency. We study the competition between those factors and…
We consider the three dimensional Heisenberg nilflows. Under a full measure set Diophantine condition on the generator of the flow we construct Bufetov functionals which are asymptotic to ergodic integrals for sufficiently smooth functions,…
It is proven that the absolutely continuous spectrum of matrix Schr\"{o}dinger operators coincides (with the multiplicity taken into account) with the spectrum of the unperturbed operator if the (matrix) potential is square integrable. The…
We show that a large class of limit-periodic Schr\"odinger operators has purely absolutely continuous spectrum in arbitrary dimensions. This result was previously known only in dimension one. The proof proceeds through the non-perturbative…
We prove that the orbit of a non-periodic point at prime values of the horocycle flow in the modular surface is dense in a set of positive measure. For some special orbits we also prove that they are dense in the whole space (assuming the…
We consider the horocyclic flow corresponding to a (topologically mixing) Anosov flow or diffeomorphism, and establish the uniqueness of transverse quasi-invariant measures with H\"older Jacobians. In the same setting, we give a precise…
In this work the method of analyzing of the absolutely continuous spectrum for self-adjoint operators is considered. For the analysis it is used an approximation of self-adjoint operator $A$ by a sequence of operators $A_n$ with absolutely…
Given a family of self-adjoint operators $(A_t)_{t\in T}$ indexed by a parameter $t$ in some topological space $T$, necessary and sufficient conditions are given for the spectrum $\sigma(A_t)$ to be Vietoris continuous with respect to $t$.…
In this note the notion of infinitesimal scattering matrix is introduced. It is shown that under certain assumption, the scattering operator of a pair of trace compatible operators is equal to the chronological exponential of the…
In this note the notions of trace compatible operators and infinitesimal spectral flow are introduced. We define the spectral shift function as the integral of infinitesimal spectral flow. It is proved that the spectral shift function thus…
Let $A(t)$ be a continuous path of Fredhom operators, we first prove that the spectral flow $sf(A(t))$ is cogredient invariant. Based on this property, we give a decomposition formula of spectral flow if the path is invariant under a…
We study the Schr\"odinger operator on $L_2(\mathbb R^3)$ with periodic variable metric, and periodic electric and magnetic fields. It is assumed that the operator is reflection symmetric and the (appropriately defined) flux of the magnetic…
We consider equivariant continuous families of discrete one-dimensional operators over arbitrary dynamical systems. We introduce the concept of a pseudo-ergodic element of a dynamical system. We then show that all operators associated to…
