We consider the Schr\"odinger operator $H_{\eta W} = -\Delta + \eta W$, self-adjoint in $L^2({\mathbb R}^d)$, $d \geq 1$. Here $\eta$ is a non constant almost periodic function, while $W$ decays slowly and regularly at infinity. We study…

We consider a magnetic Schr\"odinger operator $H^h$, depending on the semiclassical parameter $h>0$, on a two-dimensional Riemannian manifold. We assume that there is no electric field. We suppose that the minimal value $b_0$ of the…

For a class of non-selfadjoint h-pseudodifferential operators in dimension 2, we determine all eigenvalues in an h-independent domain in the complex plane and show that they are given by a Bohr-Sommerfeld quantization condition. No complete…

We consider a periodic pseudodifferential operator $H=(-\Delta)^l+A$ ($l>0$) in $\R^d$ which satisfies the following conditions: (i) the symbol of $H$ is smooth in $x$, and (ii) the perturbation $A$ has order smaller than $2l-1$. Under…

Let $(M,g_0)$ be a compact Riemmanian manifold of dimension $n$. Let $P_0 (\h) := -\h^2\Delta_{g}+V$ be the semiclassical Schr\"{o}dinger operator for $\h \in (0,\h_0]$, and let $E$ be a regular value of its principal symbol…

We consider a second order self-adjoint operator in a domain which can be bounded or unbounded. The boundary is partitioned into two parts with Dirichlet boundary condition on one of them, and Neumann condition on the other. We assume that…

The essential support of the symbol of a semiclassical pseudodifferentail operator is characterized by semiclassical wavefront sets of distributions. The proof employs a coherent state whose center in phase space is dependent on Planck's…

The propagation of internal gravity waves in stratified media, such as those found in ocean basins and lakes, leads to the development of geometrical patterns called "attractors". These structures accumulate much of the wave energy and make…

We develop a theory which describes the behaviour of eigenvalues of a class of one-dimensional random non-Hermitian operators introduced recently by Hatano and Nelson. Under general assumptions on random parameters we prove that the…

We investigate a two-dimensional Schr\"odinger operator, $-h^2 \Delta +iV(x)$, with a purely complex potential $iV(x)$. A rigorous definition of this non-selfadjoint operator is provided for bounded and unbounded domains with common…

In this paper we consider 0-th order pseudodifferential operators on the circle. We show that inside any interval disjoint from critical values of the principal symbol, the spectrum is absolutely continuous with possibly finitely many…

This text is a slightly expanded version of my 6 hour mini-course at the PDE-meeting in \'Evian-les-Bains in June 2009. The first part gives some old and recent results on non-self-adjoint differential operators. The second part is devoted…

We define a spectral flow for paths of selfadjoint Fredholm operators that are equivariant under the orthogonal action of a compact Lie group as an element of the representation ring of the latter. This $G$-equivariant spectral flow shares…
