We continue the program first initiated in [Geom. Funct. Anal. 26, 288-305 (2016)] and develop a modification of the technique introduced in that paper to study the spectral asymptotics, namely the Riesz means and eigenvalue counting…

In this paper, we consider discrete Schr\"odinger operators of the form, \begin{equation*} (Hu)(n)= u({n+1})+u({n-1})+V(n)u(n). \end{equation*} We view $H$ as a perturbation of the free operator $H_0$, where $(H_0u)(n)= u({n+1})+u({n-1})$.…

We consider pseudodifferential operators on functions on $\R^{n+1}$ which commute with the Euler operator, and can thus be restricted to spaces of functions homogeneous of some given degree. Their symbols can be regarded as functions on a…

Let $\hat H$ be an h-admissible pseudodifferential operator whose principal symbol, $H$, has a unique non-degenerate global minimum. We give a simple proof that the semi-classical asymptotics of the eigenvalues of $\hat H$ corresponding to…

The tunneling effect is the most popular phenomenon of quantum physics and is present in modern physical theories. Still, the most important features of this effect are already present in toy models - low dimensional quantum mechanics with…
