We address the spectral problem of the normal quantum mechanical operator associated to the quantized mirror curve of the toric (almost) del Pezzo Calabi--Yau threefold called local $\mathbb{P}^2$ in the case of complex values of Planck's…
We study the large N expansion of a family of matrix models related to topological strings on toric Calabi-Yau threefolds. These matrix models compute spectral observables of underlying operators obtained by quantizing the mirror curves.…
Recent developments in string theory have revealed a surprising connection between spectral theory and local mirror symmetry: it has been found that the quantization of mirror curves to toric Calabi-Yau threefolds leads to trace class…
Recently, a correspondence has been proposed between spectral theory and topological strings on toric Calabi-Yau manifolds. In this paper we develop in detail this correspondence for mirror curves of higher genus, which display many new…
This paper is devoted to self-adjoint cyclically compact operators on Hilbert--Kaplansky module over a ring of bounded measurable functions. The spectral theorem for such a class of operators are given. We apply this result to partial…
We study spectral properties of bounded and unbounded complex Jacobi matrices. In particular, we formulate conditions assuring that the spectrum of the studied operators is continuous on some subsets of the complex plane and we provide…
Joint spectra of tuples of operators are subsets in complex projective space. The corresponding tuple of operators can be viewed as an infinite dimensional analog of a determinantal representation of the joint spectrum. We investigate the…
The TS/ST correspondence relates the spectral theory of certain quantum mechanical operators, to topological strings on toric Calabi-Yau threefolds. So far the correspondence has been formulated for real values of Planck's constant. In this…
In a previous paper, we presented a matrix model reproducing the topological string partition function on an arbitrary given toric Calabi-Yau manifold. Here, we study the spectral curve of our matrix model and thus derive, upon imposing…
In this paper, a spectral theorem is proved for self-adjoint cyclically compact partial integral operators in the space of functions with mixed norm, which is a Kaplansky--Hilbert module. The decomposition through eigenfunctions, integral…
For ergodic 1d Jacobi operators we prove that the random singular components of any spectral measure are almost surely mutually disjoint as long as one restricts to the set of positive Lyapunov exponent. In the context of extended Harper's…
We prove the Mirror Conjecture for Calabi-Yau manifolds equipped with a holomorphic symplectic form. Such manifolda are also known as complex manifolds of hyperkaehler type. We obtain that a complex manifold of hyperkaehler type is Mirror…
This is the author's PhD thesis. Two main sections address various aspects of mirror symmetry for compact Calabi-Yau threefolds and the roles that classically modular varieties play in string theory compactifications. The main results…
We consider the Topological String/Spectral theory duality on toric Calabi-Yau threefolds obtained from the resolution of the cone over the $Y^{N,0}$ singularity. Assuming Kyiv formula, we demonstrate this duality in a special regime thanks…
We study the moduli spaces of flat SL(r)- and PGL(r)-connections, or equivalently, Higgs bundles, on an algebraic curve. These spaces are noncompact Calabi-Yau orbifolds; we show that they can be regarded as mirror partners in two different…
I review a recent progress towards solution of the Almost Mathieu equation (A.G. Abanov, J.C. Talstra, P.B. Wiegmann, Nucl. Phys. B 525, 571, 1998), known also as Harper's equation or Azbel-Hofstadter problem. The spectrum of this equation…
We consider the complex solvable non-commutative two dimensional Lie algebra $L$, $L=<y>\oplus <x>$, with Lie bracket $[x,y]=y$, as linear bounded operators acting on a complex Hilbert space $H$. Under the assumption $R(y)$ closed, we…
We point out that the recent conjectural solution to the spectral problem for the Hamiltonian $H=e^{x}+e^{-x}+e^{p}+e^{-p}$ in terms of the refined topological invariants of a local Calabi-Yau geometry has an intimate relation with…
The quantization of mirror curves to toric Calabi--Yau threefolds leads to trace class operators, and it has been conjectured that the spectral properties of these operators provide a non-perturbative realization of topological string…
Let $U$ be a unitary operator defined on some infinite-dimensional complex Hilbert space ${\cal H}$. Under some suitable regularity assumptions, it is known that a local positive commutation relation between $U$ and an auxiliary…
