We analyze the spectrum of a discrete Schrodinger operator with a potential given by a periodic variant of the Anderson Model. In order to do so, we study the uniform hyperbolicity of a Schrodinger cocycle generated by the SL(2,R) transfer…

The spectra of the Schr\"odinger operators with periodic potentials are studied. When the potential is real and periodic, the spectrum consists of at most countably many line segments (energy bands) on the real line, while when the…

We consider Schr\"odinger operators $H=-\Delta+V({\mathbf x})$ in ${\mathbb R}^d$, $d\geq2$, with quasi-periodic potentials $V({\mathbf x})$. We prove that the absolutely continuous spectrum of a generic $H$ contains a semi-axis…

We consider the discrete versions of the well known Borg theorem and use simple linear algebraic techniques to obtain new versions of the discrete Borg type theorems. To be precise, we prove that the periodic potential of a discrete…

The Bethe-Sommerfeld conjecture states that the spectrum of the stationary Schrodinger operator with a periodic potential in dimensions higher than 1 has only finitely many gaps. After work done by many authors, it has been proven by now in…

We prove an asymptotic expansion for the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of Schr\"{o}dinger-type operator with a confining potential and with principle part a periodic elliptic operator in divergence form. We compare the spectrum to the…

We study half-line Schr\"odinger operators with locally $H^{-1}$ potentials. In the first part, we focus on a general spectral theoretic framework for such operators, including a Last--Simon-type description of the absolutely continuous…

In this paper we find a new condition on a real periodic potential for which the self-adjoint Schr\"odinger operator may be defined by a quadratic form and the spectrum of the operator is purely absolutely continuous. This is based on…

Using numerical certification, we prove the existence of a nontrivial real-valued two dimensional periodic potential whose associated discrete Schr\"odinger operator is Fermi isospectral to the zero potential. This provides a negative…

We consider ergodic families of Schr\"odinger operators over base dynamics given by strictly ergodic subshifts on finite alphabets. It is expected that the majority of these operators have purely singular continuous spectrum supported on a…

Consider a quasi-periodic Schr\"odinger operator $H_{\alpha,\theta}$ with analytic potential and irrational frequency $\alpha$. Given any rational approximating $\alpha$, let $S_+$ and $S_-$ denote the union, respectively, the intersection…

For certain one-dimensional Schroedinger-type difference operators with a complex potential, a "complete" set of exponentially decaying eigenvectors is shown to exist. "Completeness" entails that the parameters involved are obtained through…

We study the spectrum of random ergodic Schroedinger-type operators in the weak disorder regime. We give upper and lower bounds on how much the spectrum expands at its bottom for very general perturbations. The background operator is…

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…

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…
