Embedded point spectra of rank one singular perturbations of an arbitrary self-adjoint operator A on a Hilbert space H is studied. It is shown that these perturbations can be regarded as self-adjoint extensions of a densely defined closed…

Some inverse problems for semi-infinite periodic generalized Jacobi matrices are considered. In particular, a generalization of the Abel criterion is presented. The approach is based on the fact that the solvability of the Pell-Abel…
We present a semiclassical explanation of the so-called Bohigas-Giannoni-Schmit conjecture which asserts universality of spectral fluctuations in chaotic dynamics. We work with a generating function whose semiclassical limit is determined…
We consider finite pencils of Jacobi matrices \[ J_n(w)=A+wB, \] where $A$ is diagonal and $B$ is tridiagonal with zero diagonal. The spectral curve is the affine plane curve \[ \chi_n(\lambda,w)=\det(\lambda I+J_n(w))=0 . \] The main…
The relation between two Morse functions defined on a common domain can be studied in terms of their Jacobi set. The Jacobi set contains points in the domain where the gradients of the functions are aligned. Both the Jacobi set itself as…
Consider the Jacobi operators $\cJ$ given by $(\cJ y)_n=a_ny_{n+1}+b_ny_n+a_{n-1}^*y_{n-1}$, $y_n\in \C^m$ (here $y_0=y_{p+1}=0$), where $b_n=b_n^*$ and $a_n:\det a_n\ne 0$ are the sequences of $m\ts m$ matrices, $n=1,..,p$. We study two…

Operators with continuous spectra naturally arise in spectral theory, quantum mechanics, automorphic forms, and noncommutative geometry. However, analyzing such operators, particularly in the non-selfadjoint setting, remains challenging due…
