We study a class of rooted trees with a substitution type structure. These trees are not necessarily regular, but exhibit a lot of symmetries. We consider nearest neighbor operators which reflect the symmetries of the trees. The spectrum of…
Using the Kato-Rosenblum theorem, we describe the absolutely continuous spectrum of a class of weighted integral Hankel operators in $L^2(\mathbb R_+)$. These self-adjoint operators generalise the explicitly diagonalisable operator with the…
We analyze the spectrum of the generalized Schrodinger operator in $L^2(R^\nu) \nu \geq 2$, with a general local, rotationally invariant singular interaction supported by an infinite family of concentric, equidistantly spaced spheres. It is…
The class of absolutely norming operators on complex Hilbert spaces of arbitrary dimensions was introduced in [6] and a spectral characterization theorem for these operators was established in [11]. In this paper we extend the concept of…
We study the multi-dimensional operator $(H_x u)_n=\sum_{|m-n|=1}u_{m}+f(T^n(x))u_n$, where $T$ is the shift of the torus $\T^d$. When $d=2$, we show the spectrum of $H_x$ is almost surely purely continuous for a.e. $\alpha$ and generic…
Complex potential and non-Hermitian hopping amplitude are building blocks of a non-Hermitian quantum network. Appropriate configuration, such as PT-symmetric distribution, can lead to the full real spectrum. To investigate the underlying…
We continue the investigation of the existence of absolutely continuous (a.c.) spectrum for the discrete Schr\"odinger operator $\Delta+V$ on $\ell^2(\Z^d)$, in dimensions $d\geq 2$, for potentials $V$ satisfying the long range condition…
The adjacency operator of a graph has a spectrum and a class of scalar-valued spectral measures which have been systematically analyzed; it also has a spectral multiplicity function which has been less studied. The first purpose of this…
We consider random Schr\"odinger operators on tree graphs and prove absolutely continuous spectrum at small disorder for two models. The first model is the usual binary tree with certain strongly correlated random potentials. These…
An absolute continuity approach to quasinormality which relates the operator in question to the spectral measure of its modulus is developed. Algebraic characterizations of some classes of operators that emerged in this context are…
We consider discrete one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators with quasi-Sturmian potentials. We present a new approach to the trace map dynamical system which is independent of the initial conditions and establish a characterization of the…
This paper deals with the generalized spectrum of continuously invertible linear operators defined on infinite dimensional Hilbert spaces. More precisely, we consider two bounded, coercive, and self-adjoint operators $\bc{A, B}: V\mapsto…
Given a self-adjoint involution J on a Hilbert space H, we consider a J-self-adjoint operator L=A+V on H where A is a possibly unbounded self-adjoint operator commuting with J and V a bounded J-self-adjoint operator anti-commuting with J.…
We show that a generic quasi-periodic Schr\"odinger operator in $L^2(\mathbb{R})$ has purely singular spectrum. That is, for any minimal translation flow on a finite-dimensional torus, there is a residual set of continuous sampling…
We consider continuous structures which are obtained from finite dimensional Hilbert spaces over $\mathbb{C}$ by adding some unitary operators. Quantum automata and circuits are naturally interpretable in such structures. We consider…
It is well established that the physical phenomenon of intermittency can be investigated via the spectral analysis of a transfer operator associated with the dynamics of an interval map with indifferent fixed point. We present here for the…
We provide a very general result that identifies the essential spectrum of broad classes of operators as exactly equal to the closure of the union of the spectra of suitable limits at infinity. Included is a new result on the essential…
The authors study the spectral theory of self-adjoint operators that are subject to certain types of perturbations. An iterative introduction of infinitely many randomly coupled rank-one perturbations is one of our settings. Spectral…
We consider Schr\"odinger operators with periodic electric and magnetic potentials on periodic discrete graphs. The spectrum of such operators consists of an absolutely continuous (a.c.) part (a union of a finite number of non-degenerate…
We prove new results on the stability of the absolutely continuous spectrum for perturbed Stark operators with decaying or satisfying certain smoothness assumption perturbation. We show that the absolutely continuous spectrum of the Stark…
