Let $(G_\epsilon)_{\epsilon>0}$ be a family of '$\epsilon$-thin' Riemannian manifolds modeled on a finite metric graph $G$, for example, the $\epsilon$-neighborhood of an embedding of $G$ in some Euclidean space with straight edges. We…
The paper deals with the asymptotic behavior as $\eps\to 0$ of the spectrum of Laplace-Beltrami operator $\Delta\e$ on the Riemannian manifold $M\e$ ($\mathrm{\dim} M\e=N\geq 2$) depending on a small parameter $\eps>0$. $M\e$ consists of…
We consider a compact $C^\infty$ stratified 2D variety $M$ in $\mathbb{R}^3$ and its $\epsilon$ neighborhood $M_\epsilon$, which we call a "fattened open book structure". Assuming absence of zero-dimensional strata, i.e. "corners", we show…
We consider the spectral Neumann problem for the Laplace operator in an acoustic waveguide $\Pi_{l}^{\varepsilon}$ obtained from a straight unit strip by a low box-shaped perturbation of size $2l\times\varepsilon,$ where $\varepsilon>0$ is…
Let $(X,g)$ be a closed, connected surface, with variable negative curvature. We consider the distribution of eigenvalues of the Laplacian on random covers $X_n\to X$ of degree $n$. We focus on the ensemble variance of the smoothed number…
A waveguide G lies in the (n+1)-dimensional Euclidean space for positive integer n, and outside a large ball coincides with the union of finitely many non-overlapping semi-cylinders ("cylindrical ends"). The waveguide is described by the…
We consider the spectrum of the Fibonacci Hamiltonian for small values of the coupling constant. It is known that this set is a Cantor set of zero Lebesgue measure. Here we study the limit, as the value of the coupling constant approaches…
Two microring resonators, one with gain and one with loss, coupled to each other and to a bus waveguide, create an effective non-Hermitian potential for light propagating in the waveguide. Due to geometry, coupling for each microring…
We investigate the Schr\"{o}dinger operators $H_\varepsilon=-\Delta +W+V_\varepsilon$ in $\mathbb{R}^2$ with the short-range potentials $V_\varepsilon$ which are localized around a smooth closed curve $\gamma$. The operators $H_\varepsilon$…
In this work we analyse the convergence of solutions of the Poisson equation with Neumann boundary conditions in a thin domain with highly oscillatory behavior $\mathcal{U}^\varepsilon$ contained in the sphere $\mathbb{S}^2$. Using the…
We consider small perturbations of the Laplace operator in a multi-dimensional cylindrical domain by second order differential operators with periodic coefficients. We show that under certain non-degeneracy conditions such perturbations can…
We consider a family of compact manifolds which shrinks with respect to an appropriate parameter to a graph. The main result is that the spectrum of the Laplace-Beltrami operator converges to the spectrum of the (differential) Laplacian on…
We study the low-lying spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplace operator on a randomly wiggled strip. More precisely, our results are formulated in terms of the eigenvalues of finite segment approximations of the infinite waveguide. Under…
We are concerned with sequences of graphs having a grid geometry, with a uniform local structure in a bounded domain $\Omega\subset {\mathbb R}^d$, $d\ge 1$. We assume $\Omega$ to be Lebesgue measurable with regular boundary and contained,…

We consider a 2-dimensional thin domain with order of thickness {\epsilon} which presents oscillations of amplitude also {\epsilon} on both boundaries, top and bottom, but the period of the oscillations are of different order at the top and…
We consider a finite region of a $d$-dimensional lattice, $d\in\mathbb{N}$, of weakly coupled harmonic oscillators. The coupling is provided by a nearest-neighbour potential (harmonic or not) of size $\varepsilon$. Each oscillator weakly…
We consider a twisted quantum waveguide i.e. a domain of the form \Omega_{\theta} : = r_\theta \omega \times R, where \omega \subset R^2 is a bounded domain, and r_\theta = r_\theta(x_3) is a rotation by the angle \theta(x_3) depending on…
We present a model for spectral theory of families of selfadjoint operators, and their corresponding unitary one-parameter groups (acting in Hilbert space.) The models allow for a scale of complexity, indexed by the natural numbers…
We consider the Robin Laplacian in the domains $\Omega$ and $\Omega^\varepsilon$, $\varepsilon >0$, with sharp and blunted cusps, respectively. Assuming that the Robin coefficient $a$ is large enough, the spectrum of the problem in $\Omega$…
