In this note we compare two recent results about the distribution of eigenvalues for semi-classical pseudodifferential operators in two dimensions. For classes of analytic operators A. Melin and the author obtained a complex Bohr-Sommerfeld…
We consider the existence of localized modes corresponding to eigenvalues of the periodic Schr\"{o}dinger operator $-\partial_x^2+ V(x)$ with an interface. The interface is modeled by a jump either in the value or the derivative of $V(x)$…
We prove that the eigenvalues $\lambda_n(c)$ of the time-frequency localization operator satisfy $\lambda_n(c) > 1 - \delta^c$ for $n = [(1-\varepsilon)c]$, where $\delta = \delta(\varepsilon) < 1$ and $\varepsilon > 0$ is arbitrary,…
Spectral properties of bounded linear operators play a crucial role in several areas of mathematics and physics. For each self-adjoint, trace-class operator $O$ we define a set $\Lambda_n\subset \mathbb{R}$, and we show that it converges to…
In this paper, we investigate the eigenvalue problem for a non-local dispersal operator defined on a bounded spatial domain with Neumann-type boundary conditions. Unlike the classical Laplacian, the non-local operator lacks compactness,…

Time-frequency concentration operators restrict the integral analysis-synthesis formula for the short-time Fourier transform to a given compact domain. We estimate how much the corresponding eigenvalue counting function deviates from the…
We exhibit limit-periodic Schr\"odinger operators that are uniformly localized in the strongest sense possible. That is, for these operators there are uniform exponential decay rates such that every element of the hull has a complete set of…
We analyze the problem of evolution in a system with stochastic perturbation and point out that analytic properties of the noise present in the system might determine spectral properties of the evolution operator (Frobenius-Perron…
Eigenvalues in the essential spectrum of a weighted Sturm-Liouville operator are studied under the assumption that the weight function has one turning point. An abstract approach to the problem is given via a functional model for indefinite…
We describe a method for the numerical evaluation of the angular prolate spheroidal wave functions of the first kind of order zero. It is based on the observation that underlies the WKB method, namely that many second order differential…
An estimate for the norm of selfadjoint Toeplitz operators with a radial, bounded and integrable symbol is obtained. This emphasizes the fact that the norm of such operator is strictly less than the supremum norm of the symbol. Consequences…

Random Schroedinger operators with imaginary vector potentials are studied in dimension one. These operators are non-Hermitian and their spectra lie in the complex plane. We consider the eigenvalue problem on finite intervals of length n…
In modeling quantum systems or wave phenomena, one is often interested in identifying eigenstates that approximately carry a specified property; scattering states approximately align with incoming and outgoing traveling waves, for instance,…
