For the almost Mathieu operator $ (H_{\lambda,\alpha,\theta}u) (n)=u(n+1)+u(n-1)+ \lambda v(\theta+n\alpha)u(n)$, Avila and Jitomirskaya guess that for every phase $ \theta \in \mathscr{R} \triangleq\{\theta\in \mathbb{R}\;| \; 2\theta +…
Let $\alpha\in \mathbb{R}\backslash \mathbb{Q}$ and $\beta(\alpha) = \limsup _{n \to \infty}(\ln q_{n+1})/ q_n <\infty$, where $p_n/q_n$ is the continued fraction approximations to $\alpha$. Let $(H_{\lambda,\alpha,\theta}u)…
We initiate an approach to simultaneously treat numerators and denominators of Green's functions arising from quasi-periodic Schr\"odinger operators, which in particular allows us to study completely resonant phases of the almost Mathieu…
We prove that for Diophantine \om and almost every \th, the almost Mathieu operator, (H_{\omega,\lambda,\theta}\Psi)(n)=\Psi(n+1) + \Psi(n-1) + \lambda\cos 2\pi(\omega n +\theta)\Psi(n), exhibits localization for \lambda > 2 and purely…
We estimate the norm of the almost Mathieu operator $H_{\theta,\lambda} =U+U^*+(\lambda /2)(V+V^*)$ in the rotation $C^*$-algebra $A_\theta =C^*(U,V unitaries;UV=e^{2\pi i\theta} VU)$. In this process, we significantly improve the…
For almost Mathieu operator $(H_{\lambda,\alpha,\theta}u)_n=u_{n+1}+u_{n-1}+2\lambda \cos2\pi(\theta+n\alpha)u_n$, the dry version of Ten Martini problem predicts that the spectrum $\Sigma_{\lambda,\alpha}$ of $ H_{\lambda,\alpha,\theta}$…
The almost Mathieu operator is the discrete Schr\"odinger operator $H_{\alpha,\beta,\theta}$ on $\ell^2(\mathbb{Z})$ defined via $(H_{\alpha,\beta,\theta}f)(k) = f(k + 1) + f(k - 1) + \beta \cos(2\pi \alpha k + \theta) f(k)$. We derive…

In this paper we use results on reducibility, localization and duality for the Almost Mathieu operator, \[ (H_{b,\phi} x)_n= x_{n+1} +x_{n-1} + b \cos(2 \pi n \omega + \phi)x_n \] on $l^2(\mathbb{Z})$ and its associated eigenvalue equation…
We study the unitary almost Mathieu operator (UAMO), a one-dimensional quasi-periodic unitary operator arising from a two-dimensional discrete-time quantum walk on $\mathbb Z^2$ in a homogeneous magnetic field. In the positive Lyapunov…
In this paper we address the question of proving Anderson localization (AL) for the operator [H(x,\omega)\psi](n) := - \vp(n+1) - \vp(n-1) + V\bigl(T^n_\omega x\bigr)\psi(n), n\in\mathbb Z where T:\tor^2\to\tor^2 is either the shift or the…
We prove non-perturbative Anderson localization and almost localization for a family of quasi-periodic operators on the strip. As an application we establish Avila's almost reducibility conjecture for Schr\"odinger operators with…
Let theta = p/q with p and q relatively prime and u and v a pair of unitaries such that u v = e^{i theta} v u, where u and v generate the rotation C*-algebra A_theta. Let h_{theta, lambda} = u + u^{-1} + lambda/2(v + v^{-1}) be the almost…
We establish Anderson localization for quasiperiodic operator families of the form $$ (H(x)\psi)(m)=\psi(m+1)+\psi(m-1)+\lambda v(x+m\alpha)\psi(m) $$ for all $\lambda>0$ and all Diophantine $\alpha$, provided that $v$ is a $1$-periodic…
In this paper, we consider the Schr\"{o}dinger operators on $ \ell^{2}(\N) $, defined for all $ x\in\mathbb{T} $ by \begin{equation} (H(x)u)_n = u_{n+1} + u_{n-1} + \lambda f(2^{n} x) u_n, \quad \text{for } n \geq 0,\notag \end{equation}…

We describe a way of detecting the location of localized eigenvectors of a linear system $Ax = \lambda x$ for eigenvalues $\lambda$ with $|\lambda|$ comparatively large. We define the family of functions $f_{\alpha}: \left\{1.2. \dots,…
Avila and Jitomirskaya prove that the quasi-periodic Schr\"{o}dinger operator $H_{\lambda v,\alpha,\theta}$ has purely absolutely continuous spectrum for $\alpha $ in sub-exponential regime (i.e., $\beta(\alpha)=0$) with small $\lambda$, if…
We consider a system of two discrete quasiperiodic 1D particles as an operator on $\ell^2(\mathbb Z^2)$ and establish Anderson localization at large disorder, assuming the potential has no cosine-type symmetries. In the presence of…
