We develop a theory of regularity for Dirac operators with uniformly locally square-integrable operator data. This is motivated by Stahl--Totik regularity for orthogonal polynomials and by recent developments for continuum Schr\"odinger…

We use the Dirac operator technique to establish sharp distance estimates for compact spin manifolds under lower bounds on the scalar curvature in the interior and on the mean curvature of the boundary. In the situations we consider, we…

For the weighted Dirac eigenvalue problem, we show that the two-sided weighted spectrum depends continuously on the weight under continuous deformations within a uniformly elliptic class. Moreover, for differentiable families of weights we…

Under suitable invertibility hypothesis, the spectrum of the Dirac operator on certain open spin Riemannian manifolds is discrete, and obeys a growth law depending qualitatively on the (in)finiteness of the volume.

Consider the massless Dirac operator on a 3-torus equipped with Euclidean metric and standard spin structure. It is known that the eigenvalues can be calculated explicitly: the spectrum is symmetric about zero and zero itself is a double…

The Dirac Hamiltonian with the Aharonov-Bohm potential provides an example of a non-Fredholm operator for which all spectral asymmetry comes entirely from the continuous spectrum. In this case one finds that the use of standard definitions…

This paper is a follow-up on the \emph{noncommutative differential geometry on infinitesimal spaces} [15]. In the present work, we extend the algebraic convergence from [15] to the geometric setting. On the one hand, we reformulate the…

The half-line Dirac operators with $L^2$-potentials can be characterized by their spectral data. It is known that the spectral correspondence is a homeomorphism: close potentials give rise to close spectral data and vice versa. We prove the…
