We develop a sharp boundary trace theory in arbitrary bounded Lipschitz domains which, in contrast to classical results, allows "forbidden" endpoints and permits the consideration of functions exhibiting very limited regularity. This is…

We consider differential operators $L$ acting on functions on a Riemannian surface, $\Sigma$, of the form $$L = \Delta + V -a K ,$$where $\Delta$ is the Laplacian of $\Sigma$, $K$ is the Gaussian curvature, $a$ is a positive constant and $V…

The problem of self-adjoint extensions of Dirac-type operators in manifolds with boundaries is analysed. The boundaries might be regular or non-regular. The latter situation includes point-like interactions, also called delta-like…

Let $L=-\Delta +|x|^2$ be the Hermite operator on $\mathbb{R}^n$, and $T$ be a Calder\'on-Zygmund type operator that is modelled on certain singular integrals related to $L$. We establish necessary and sufficient conditions for $T$ to be…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ be bounded with $C^1$ boundary. In this paper we consider Schr\"odinger operators $-\Delta+ W$ on $\Omega$ with $W(x)\approx\mathrm{dist}(x, \partial\Omega)^{-2}$ as $\mathrm{dist}(x, \partial\Omega)\to 0$.…

We propose a new method to construct a four parameter family of quantum-mechanical point interactions in one dimension, which is known as all possible self-adjoint extensions of the symmetric operator $T=-\Delta \lceil C^{\infty}_{0}({\bf…

We study the spectrum of Schr\"odinger operators with matrix valued potentials utilizing tools from infinite dimensional symplectic geometry. Using the spaces of abstract boundary values, we derive relations between the Morse and Maslov…

We examine two kinds of spectral theoretic situations: First, we recall the case of self-adjoint half-line Schr\"odinger operators on $[a,\infty)$, $a\in\mathbb{R}$, with a regular finite end point $a$ and the case of Schr\"odinger…

In this expository article some spectral properties of self-adjoint differential operators are investigated. The main objective is to illustrate and (partly) review how one can construct domains or potentials such that the essential or…

We study a system of N bosons in the plane interacting with delta function potentials. After a coupling constant renormalization we show that the Hamiltonian defines a self-adjoint operator and obtain a lower bound for the energy. The same…

We prove an approximation result showing how operators of the type $-\Delta -\gamma \delta (x-\Gamma)$ in $L^2(\mathbb{R}^2)$, where $\Gamma$ is a graph, can be modeled in the strong resolvent sense by point-interaction Hamiltonians with an…

We prove sharp upper bounds for eigenvalues of Schr\"odinger operators on quantum graphs with $\delta$-coupling (also known as Robin) conditions at all vertices. The bounds depend on the geometry of the graph, on the potential, and the…

This note revolves on the free Dirac operator in $\mathbb{R}^3$ and its $\delta$-shell interaction with electrostatic potentials supported on a sphere. On one hand, we characterize the eigenstates of those couplings by finding sharp…
