We consider Schr\"odinger operators in $\ell^2(\mathbb{Z})$ whose potentials are given by the sum of an ergodic term and a random term of Anderson type. Under the assumption that the ergodic term is generated by a homeomorphism of a…

We describe some basic tools in the spectral theory of Schr\"odinger operator on metric graphs (also known as "quantum graph") by studying in detail some basic examples. The exposition is kept as elementary and accessible as possible. In…

For periodic graph operators, we establish criteria to determine the overlaps of spectral band functions based on Bloch varieties. One criterion states that for a large family of periodic graph operators, the irreducibility of Bloch…

For operators with homogeneous disorder, it is generally expected that there is a relation between the spectral characteristics of a random operator in the infinite setup and the distribution of the energy gaps in its finite volume…

Dynamical and spatial correlations of eigenfunctions as well as energy level correlations in the Anderson model on random regular graphs (RRG) are studied. We consider the critical point of the Anderson transition and the delocalized phase.…

According to a well-know theorem by Sturm, a vibrating string is divided into exactly N nodal intervals by zeros of its N-th eigenfunction. Courant showed that one half of Sturm's theorem for the strings applies to the theory of membranes:…

We prove that arithmetic quantum unique ergodicity holds on compact arithmetic quotients of $GL(2,\mathbb{Q}_p)$ for automorphic forms belonging to the principal series. We interpret this conclusion in terms of the equidistribution of…

We show persistence of both Anderson and dynamical localization in Schr\"odinger operators with non-positive (attractive) random decaying potential. We consider an Anderson-type Schr\"odinger operator with a non-positive ergodic random…

The aim of this paper is twofold. First, we study eigenvalues and eigenvectors of the adjacency matrix of a bond percolation graph when the base graph is finite and well approximated locally by an infinite regular graph. We relate…

We prove sharp upper bounds for eigenvalues of Schr\"odinger operators on quantum graphs with $\delta$-coupling (also known as Robin) conditions at all vertices. The bounds depend on the geometry of the graph, on the potential, and the…

For general quantum systems the semiclassical behaviour of eigenfunctions in relation to the ergodic properties of the underlying classical system is quite difficult to understand. The Wignerfunctions of eigenstates converge weakly to…

Studying the spectral theory of Schroedinger operator on metric graphs (also known as quantum graphs) is advantageous on its own as well as to demonstrate key concepts of general spectral theory. There are some excellent references for this…

In a previous work [Andrade \textit{et al.}, Phys. Rep. \textbf{647}, 1 (2016)], it was shown that the exact Green's function (GF) for an arbitrarily large (although finite) quantum graph is given as a sum over scattering paths, where local…

Quantum networks are often modelled using Schroedinger operators on metric graphs. To give meaning to such models one has to know how to interpret the boundary conditions which match the wave functions at the graph vertices. In this article…
