In this work the method of analyzing of the absolutely continuous spectrum for self-adjoint operators is considered. For the analysis it is used an approximation of self-adjoint operator $A$ by a sequence of operators $A_n$ with absolutely…
We apply the methods of classical approximation theory (extreme properties of polynomials) to study the essential support $\Sigma_{ac}$ of the absolutely continuous spectrum of Jacobi matrices. First, we prove an upper bound on the measure…

We explore to what extent the relation between the absolute continuous spectrum and non-existence of subordinate generalized eigenvectors, known for scalar Jacobi operators, can be formulated also for block Jacobi operators with…
We study spectral properties of unbounded Jacobi matrices with periodically modulated or blended entries. Our approach is based on uniform asymptotic analysis of generalized eigenvectors. We determine when the studied operators are…
We discuss a functional model for multi--diagonal selfadjoint operators with almost periodic coefficients that generalizes the well known model for finite band Jacobi matrices. It give us an opportunity to construct examples of almost…
The problem of approximating the discrete spectra of families of self-adjoint operators that are merely strongly continuous is addressed. It is well-known that the spectrum need not vary continuously (as a set) under strong perturbations.…
We deal in this work with a class of graphs, namely, the class of distance-regular graphs, in which on the basis of $k$-adjacency operators, the adjacency operator $A$ of a distance-regular graph is identified as a Jacobi matrix. To get so,…
We study self-adjoint bounded Jacobi operators of the form: (J \psi)(n) = a_n \psi(n + 1) + b_n \psi(n) +a_{n-1} \psi(n - 1) on $\ell^2(\N)$. We assume that for some fixed q, the q-variation of $\{a_n\}$ and $\{b_n\}$ is square-summable and…
A one-channel operator is a self-adjoint operator on $\ell^2(\mathbb{G})$ for some countable set $\mathbb{G}$ with a rank 1 transition structure along the sets of a quasi-spherical partition of $\mathbb{G}$. Jacobi operators are a very…
I explore some consequences of a groundbreaking result of Breimesser and Pearson on the absolutely continuous spectrum of one-dimensional Schr"odinger operators. These include an Oracle Theorem that predicts the potential and rather general…
Quasiperiodic Jacobi operators arise as mathematical models of quasicrystals and in more general studies of structures exhibiting aperiodic order. The spectra of these self-adjoint operators can be quite exotic, such as Cantor sets, and…
We disprove a conjecture of Breuer-Last-Simon concerning the absolutely continuous spectrum of Jacobi matrices with coefficients that obey an $\ell^2$ bounded variation condition with step $q$. We prove existence of a.c. spectrum on a…
Several examples of Jacobi matrices with an explicitly solvable spectral problem are worked out in detail. In all discussed cases the spectrum is discrete and coincides with the set of zeros of a special function. Moreover, the components…
We introduce a class of doubly infinite complex Jacobi matrices determined by a simple convergence condition imposed on the diagonal and off-diagonal sequences. For each Jacobi matrix belonging to this class, an analytic function, called a…
We study Jacobi matrices on star-like graphs, which are graphs that are given by the pasting of a finite number of half-lines to a compact graph. Specifically, we extend subordinacy theory to this type of graphs, that is, we find a…
For a two-parameter family of Jacobi matrices exhibiting first-order spectral phase transitions, we prove discreteness of the spectrum in the positive real axis when the parameters are in one of the transition boundaries. To this end we…
