We prove a quantum ergodicity theorem for sequences of closed hyperbolic surfaces converging to the Poincar\'e disc in the Benjamini-Schramm sense. Assuming a uniform lower bound on the injectivity radius and a spectral gap, we establish…

We prove upper and lower bounds for the number of zeroes of linear combinations of Schr\"odinger eigenfunctions on metric (quantum) graphs. These bounds are distinct from both the interval and manifolds. We complement these bounds by giving…

We study the ergodic properties of eigenfunctions of Schr\"odinger operators on a closed connected Riemannian manifold $M$ in case that the underlying Hamiltonian system possesses certain symmetries. More precisely, let $M$ carry an…

In this paper we consider Schr\"{o}dinger operators on $M \times \mathbb{Z}^{d_2}$, with $M=\{M_{1}, \ldots, M_{2}\}^{d_1}$ (`quantum wave guides') with a `$\Gamma$-trimmed' random potential, namely a potential which vanishes outside a…

We study the semiclassical behaviour of eigenfunctions of quantum systems with ergodic classical limit. By the quantum ergodicity theorem almost all of these eigenfunctions become equidistributed in a weak sense. We give a simple derivation…

We give an estimate of the quantum variance for $d$-regular graphs quantised with boundary scattering matrices that prohibit back-scattering. For families of graphs that are expanders, with few short cycles, our estimate leads to quantum…

We analyse the spectral phase diagram of Schr\"odinger operators $ T +\lambda V$ on regular tree graphs, with $T$ the graph adjacency operator and $V$ a random potential given by iid random variables. The main result is a criterion for the…

We consider Schr\"odinger operators with periodic potentials on periodic discrete graphs. The spectrum of the Schr\"odinger operator consists of an absolutely continuous part (a union of a finite number of non-degenerated bands) plus a…
