We study the approximation of the spectrum of a second-order elliptic differential operator by the Hybrid High-Order (HHO) method. The HHO method is formulated using cell and face unknowns which are polynomials of some degree $k\geq0$. The…

We analyze spectral properties of two mutually related families of magnetic Schr\"{o}dinger operators, $H_{\mathrm{Sm}}(A)=(i \nabla +A)^2+\omega^2 y^2+\lambda y \delta(x)$ and $H(A)=(i \nabla +A)^2+\omega^2 y^2+ \lambda y^2 V(x y)$ in…

We consider a semi-classical Schr\"odinger operator, -h^2\Delta + V(x). Assuming that the potential admits a unique global minimum and that the eigenvalues of the Hessian are linearly independent over the rationals, we show that the…
In this paper, we consider discrete Schr\"odinger operators of the form, \begin{equation*} (Hu)(n)= u({n+1})+u({n-1})+V(n)u(n). \end{equation*} We view $H$ as a perturbation of the free operator $H_0$, where $(H_0u)(n)= u({n+1})+u({n-1})$.…

Consider in $L^2 (\R^l)$ the operator family $H(\epsilon):=P_0(\hbar,\omega)+\epsilon Q_0$. $P_0$ is the quantum harmonic oscillator with diophantine frequency vector $\om$, $Q_0$ a bounded pseudodifferential operator with symbol…
We give a new reduction of a general diatomic molecular Hamiltonian, without modifying it near the collision set of nuclei. The resulting effective Hamiltonian is the sum of a smooth semiclassical pseudodifferential operator (the…
We consider the fourth order Schr\"odinger operator $H=\Delta^2+V(x)$ in three dimensions with real-valued potential $V$. Let $H_0=\Delta^2$, if $V$ decays sufficiently and there are no eigenvalues or resonances in the absolutely continuous…
In the first part of this paper we give a precise description of all the minimal decompositions of any bi-homogeneous polynomial $p$ (i.e. a partially symmetric tensor of $S^{d_1}V_1\otimes S^{d_2}V_2$ where $V_1,V_2$ are two complex,…
In this work, we study inverse resonance problems for the Schr\"odinger operator on the real line with the potential supported in $[0,1]$. In general, all eigenvalues and resonances can not uniquely determine the potential. (i) It is shown…
We develop a general technique for finding self-adjoint extensions of a symmetric operator that respect a given set of its symmetries. Problems of this type naturally arise when considering two- and three-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators…
