We discuss two types of defects in two-dimensional lattices, namely (1) translational dislocations and (2) defects produced by a rotation of the lattice in a half-space. For Lipschitz-continuous and $\Z^2$-periodic potentials, we first show…

We analyze two-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators with the potential $|xy|^p - \lambda (x^2+y^2)^{p/(p+2)}$ where $p\ge 1$ and $\lambda\ge 0$, which exhibit an abrupt change of its spectral properties at a critical value of the coupling…
The notion of the wave spectrum of a semi-bounded symmetric operator was introduced by one of the authors in 2013. The wave spectrum is a topological space determined by the operator in a canonical way. The definition uses a dynamical…
We give the first example of a connected 4-regular graph whose Laplace operator's spectrum is a Cantor set, as well as several other computations of spectra following a common ``finite approximation'' method. These spectra are simple…
Let $H$ be the discrete Schr\"odinger operator $Hu(n):=u(n-1)+u(n+1)+v(n)u(n)$, $u(0)=0$ acting on $l^2({\bf Z}^+)$ where the potential $v$ is real-valued and $v(n)\to 0$ as $n\to \infty$. Let $P$ be the orthogonal projection onto a closed…
