Let $X$ and $G$ be compact Lie groups, $F_1:X\to X$ the time-one map of a $C^\infty$ measure-preserving flow, $\phi:X\to G$ a continuous function and $\pi$ a finite-dimensional irreducible unitary representation of $G$. Then, we prove that…
We characterize the spectrum of the transition matrix for simple random walk on graphs consisting of a finite graph with a finite number of infinite Cayley trees attached. We show that there is a continuous spectrum identical to that for a…
We investigate the use of discrete-time quantum walks to sample from an almost-uniform distribution, in the absence of any external source of randomness. Integers are encoded on the vertices of a cycle graph, and a quantum walker evolves…

We study the spectrum of spherically symmetric Dirac operators in three-dimensional space with potentials tending to infinity at infinity under weak regularity assumptions. We prove that purely absolutely continuous spectrum covers the…
We develop a general method to bound the spreading of an entire wavepacket under Schr\"odinger dynamics from above. This method derives upper bounds on time-averaged moments of the position operator from lower bounds on norms of transfer…
In this paper we introduce a method that allows one to prove uniform local results for one-dimensional discrete Schr\"odinger operators with Sturmian potentials. We apply this method to the transfer matrices in order to study the Lyapunov…
We undertake a detailed analysis of ergodicity for homogeneous discrete-time quantum walks on the integer lattice. The most significant result of our paper holds in dimension one, and gives a complete equivalence between the absolutely…
We study Schr\"odinger operators on compact finite metric graphs subject to $\delta$-coupling and standard boundary conditions. We compare the $n$-th eigenvalues of those self-adjoint realizations and derive an asymptotic result for the…
We show that a one-frequency analytic SL(2,R) cocycle with Diophantine rotation vector is analytically linearizable if and only if the Lyapunov exponent is zero through a complex neighborhood of the circle. More generally, we show (without…
The correlation spectrum of fully developed one-dimensional mappings are studied near and at a weakly intermittent situation. Using a suitable infinite matrix representation, the eigenvalue equation of the Frobenius-Perron operator is…
We show that whole-line Schr\"odinger operators with finitely many bound states have no embedded singular spectrum. In contradistinction, we show that embedded singular spectrum is possible even when the bound states approach the essential…
In this paper we obtain upper quantum dynamical bounds as a corollary of positive Lyapunov exponent for Schr\"odinger operators $H_{f,\theta} u(n)=u(n+1)+u(n-1)+ \phi(f^n\theta)u(n)$, where $\phi : \mathcal{M}\to {\Bbb R}$ is a piecewise…
Covariant Lyapunov vectors or CLVs span the expanding and contracting directions of perturbations along trajectories in a chaotic dynamical system. Due to efficient algorithms to compute them that only utilize trajectory information, they…
We prove that, for semi-invertible linear cocycles, Lyapunov exponents of ergodic measures may be approximated by Lyapunov exponents on periodic points.
We introduce the \emph{metric spectrum}, which measures the exponential rate of approximation to an isolated invariant set of points starting in its stable set, and relate it to the Lyapunov spectrum. We determine the metric spectrum of…
We prove several new results on the absolutely continuous spectra of perturbed one-dimensional Stark operators. First, we find new classes of perturbations, characterized mainly by smoothness conditions, which preserve purely absolutely…
