The isoscalar $\eta$ and $\eta'$ mesons are special in QCD, being linked both to chiral symmetry and to non-perturbative glue associated with the axial anomaly. The properties of these mesons in medium are sensitive to how these dynamics…

It was recently shown that the point spectrum of the separated Coulomb-Dirac operator H_0(k) is the limit of the point spectrum of the Dirac operator with anomalous magnetic moment H_a(k) as the anomaly parameter tends to 0; this spectral…
Let $\ui\di$ be the Dirac operator on a $D=2d$ dimensional ball $\mcB$ with radius $R$. We calculate the spectral asymmetry $\eta(0,\ui\di)$ for D=2 and D=4, when local chiral bag boundary conditions are imposed. With these boundary…

In this paper we investigate the operator $H_{\beta}=-\Delta-\beta\delta(\cdot-\Gamma)$ in $L^{2}({\Bbb R}^{2})$, where $\beta>0$ and $\Gamma$ is a closed $C^{4}$ Jordan curve in ${\Bbb R}^{2}$. We obtain the asymptotic form of each…
We study singular Schrodinger operators with an attractive interaction supported by a closed smooth surface A in R^3 and analyze their behavior in the vicinity of the critical situation where such an operator has empty discrete spectrum and…
Let ${\mathsf D}$ and ${\mathsf H}$ be the self-adjoint, one-dimensional Dirac and Schr\"odinger operators in $L^{2}(\mathbb{R};\mathbb{C}^{2})$ and $L^{2}(\mathbb{R};\mathbb{C})$ respectively. It is well known that, in absence of an…

We study the $\eta$-invariant of a Dirac operator on a manifold with boundary subject to local boundary conditions with the help of heat kernel methods. In even dimensions, we relate this invariant to $\eta$-invariants of a boundary Dirac…
We study extensions of direct sums of symmetric operators $S=\oplus_{n\in\mathbb{N}} S_n$. In general there is no natural boundary triplet for $S^*$ even if there is one for every $S_n^*$, $n\in\mathbb{N}$. We consider a subclass of…
On complete non-compact manifolds with bounded sectional curvature, we consider a class of self-adjoint Dirac-type operators called Dirac-Schr\"odinger operators. Assuming two Dirac-Schr\"odinger operators coincide at infinity, by previous…
