We study the spectral problems associated with the finite-difference operators $H_N = 2 \cosh(p) + V_N(x)$, where $V_N(x)$ is an arbitrary polynomial potential of degree $N$. These systems can be regarded as a solvable deformation of the…

On a star graph $G$ with $n = n_+ + n_-$ edges of unit length, we study the operator $-\frac{\mathrm{d}^2}{\mathrm{d} x^2}$ on $n_+$ and $\frac{\mathrm{d}^2}{\mathrm{d} x^2}$ on $n_-$ edges equipped with Dirichlet boundary conditions at the…
We prove a variant of Sch'nol's theorem in a general setting: for generators of strongly local Dirichlet forms perturbed by measures. As an application, we discuss quantum graphs with $\delta$- or Kirchhoff boundary conditions.
We consider a Schr\"odinger operator $(h\mathbf D -\mathbf A)^2$ with a positive magnetic field $B=\curl\mathbf A$ in a domain $\Omega\subset\R^2$. The imposing of Neumann boundary conditions leads to spectrum below $h\inf B$. This is a…

Let $L$ be a non-negative self-adjoint operator acting on the space $L^2(X)$, where $X$ is a metric measure space. Let ${ L}=\int_0^{\infty} \lambda dE_{ L}({\lambda})$ be the spectral resolution of ${ L}$ and $S_R({ L})f=\int_0^R dE_{…
We consider a magnetic Schr\"odinger operator $H^h$, depending on the semiclassical parameter $h>0$, on a two-dimensional Riemannian manifold. We assume that there is no electric field. We suppose that the minimal value $b_0$ of the…

We consider the Schr\"odinger operator $Hy=-y"+(p+q)y$ with a periodic potential $p$ plus a compactly supported potential $q$ on the real line. The spectrum of $H$ consists of an absolutely continuous part plus a finite number of simple…
We consider the nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger equation $-\Delta u+(\lambda a(x)+1)u=|u|^{p-1}u$ on a locally finite graph $G=(V,E)$. We prove via the Nehari method that if $a(x)$ satisfies certain assumptions, for any $\lambda>1$, the equation…
We study Schr\"odinger operators $H=-\Delta+V$ in $L^2(\Omega)$ where $\Omega$ is $\mathbb R^d$ or the half-space $\mathbb R_+^d$, subject to (real) Robin boundary conditions in the latter case. For $p>d$ we construct a non-real potential…
