While multifractal spectra are convex, general field theoretic arguments show that power of field operators $\phi^f$ yield a concave spectrum of exponents as function of $f$. This is resolved by appropriate choice of operators to describe…
The first step in the counting operator analysis of the spectrum of any model Hamiltonian H is the choice of a Hermitean operator M in such a way that the third commutator with H is proportional to the first commutator. Next one calculates…
We consider the bosonic Fock space over the Hilbert space of transversal vector fields in three dimensions. This space carries a canonical representation of the group of rotations. For a certain class of operators in Fock space we show that…
In this paper, we investigate the spectrum of a class of multidimensional quasi-periodic Schr\"odinger operators that exhibit a Cantor spectrum, which provides a resolution to a question posed by Damanik, Fillman, and Gorodetski \cite{DFG}.…
The dynamics of waves in periodic media is determined by the band structure of the underlying periodic Hamiltonian. Symmetries of the Hamiltonian can give rise to novel properties of the band structure. Here we consider a class of periodic…
The method of spectral decimation is applied to an infinite collection of self--similar fractals. The sets considered belong to the class of nested fractals, and are thus very symmetric. An explicit construction is given to obtain formulas…
We determine the structure of the spectrum and obtain non-propagation estimates for a class of Toeplitz operators acting on a subset of the lattice $\Z^N$. This class contains the Hamiltonian of the one-dimensional Heisenberg model.
Let $U$ be a unitary operator defined on some infinite-dimensional complex Hilbert space ${\cal H}$. Under some suitable regularity assumptions, it is known that a local positive commutation relation between $U$ and an auxiliary…
In this paper, we provide the spectral decomposition in Hilbert space of the $\mathcal{C}_0$-semigroup $P$ and its adjoint $\hatP$ having as generator, respectively, the Caputo and the right-sided Riemann-Liouville fractional derivatives of…
We investigate discrete fractional Laplacians defined on the half-lattice in several dimensions, allowing possibly different fractional orders along each coordinate direction. By expressing the half-lattice operator as a boundary…
Let $Q(x)$ denote a periodic function on the real line. The Schr\"odinger operator, $H_Q=-\partial_x^2+Q(x)$, has $L^2(\mathbb{R})-$ spectrum equal to the union of closed real intervals separated by open spectral gaps. In this article we…
Following an approach developed by Gieseker, Kn\"orrer and Trubowitz for discretized Schr\"odinger operators, we study the spectral theory of Harper operators in dimension two and one, as a discretized model of magnetic Laplacians, from the…
In this paper we explore a certain class of non-selfadjoint operators acting in a complex separable Hilbert space. We consider a perturbation of a non-selfadjoint operator by an operator that is also non-selfadjoint. Our consideration is…
We adapt the well-known spectral decimation technique for computing spectra of Laplacians on certain symmetric self-similar sets to the case of magnetic Schrodinger operators and work through this method completely for the diamond lattice…
We argue that Hopf-algebra deformations of symmetries -- as encountered in non-commutative models of quantum spacetime -- carry an intrinsic content of $operator$ $entanglement$ that is enforced by the coproduct-defined notion of composite…
The magnetic line defect in the $O(N)$ model gives rise to a non-trivial one-dimensional defect conformal field theory of theoretical and experimental value. This model is considered here in $d=4-\varepsilon$ and the full spectrum of defect…
We theoretically analyze the spectrum of phonons of a one-dimensional quasiperiodic lattice. We simulate the quasicrystal from the classic system of spring-bound atoms with a force constant modulated by the Aubry-Andr\'e model, so that its…
Representations of the quantum q-oscillator algebra are studied with particular attention to local Hamiltonian representations of the Schroedinger type. In contrast to the standard harmonic oscillators such systems exhibit a continuous…
We study different operator radii of homomorphisms from an operator algebra into $B(H)$ and show that these can be computed explicitly in terms of the usual norm. As an application, we show that if $\Omega$ is a $K$-spectral set for a…
The adaptive perturbation method decomposes a Hamiltonian by the diagonal elements and non-diagonal elements of the Fock state. The diagonal elements of the Fock state are solvable but can contain the information about coupling constants.…
