We continue the development of transfer operator techniques for expanding maps on a lattice coupled by general interaction functions. We obtain a spectral gap for an appropriately defined transfer operator, and, as corollaries, the…
We show that there is a natural restriction on the smoothness of spaces where the transfer operator for a continuous dynamical system has a spectral gap. Such a space cannot be embedded in a H\"older space with H\"older exponent greater…
We will discuss a somewhat striking spectral property of finitely valued stationary processes on Z that says that if the spectral measure of the process has a gap then the process is periodic. We will give some extensions of this result and…
We discuss spectral properties of the self-adjoint operator \[ -d^2/dt^2 + (t^{k+1}/(k+1)-\alpha)^2 \] in $L^2(\mathbb{R})$ for odd integers $k$. We prove that the minimum over $\alpha$ of the ground state energy of this operator is…

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…
Spectral components of one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operator with complex potential are investigated. An effective upper bound for the total number of eigenvalues and spectral singularities is established. For dissipative Schr\"odinger…
We explicitly determine the spectrum of transfer operators (acting on spaces of holomorphic functions) associated to analytic expanding circle maps arising from finite Blaschke products. This is achieved by deriving a convenient natural…
The interplay between cosmology and strongly coupled dynamics can yield transient spectral features that vanish at late times, but which may leave behind phenomenological signatures in the spectrum of primordial fluctuations. Of particular…
We study the spectral properties of discrete one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators with Sturmian potentials. It is shown that the point spectrum is always empty. Moreover, for rotation numbers with bounded density, we establish purely…
We consider a nonlocal differential--difference Schr\"odinger operator on a segment with the Neumann conditions and two translations in the free term. The values of the translations are denoted by $\alpha$ and $\beta$ and are treated as…
In the paper the general case of a normal discrete Hausdorff operators in $L^2(\mathbb{R}^d)$ is considered. The main result states that under some natural arithmetic condition the spectrum of such an operator is rotationally invariant.…
We investigate the spectral properties of Schr\"odinger operators in l^2(Z) with limit-periodic potentials. The perspective we take was recently proposed by Avila and is based on regarding such potentials as generated by continuous sampling…
We consider continuum random Schr\"odinger operators of the type $H_{\omega} = -\Delta + V_0 + V_{\omega}$ with a deterministic background potential $V_0$. We establish criteria for the absence of continuous and absolutely continuous…
