We consider the difference between the two lowest eigenvalues (the fundamental gap) of a Schr\"{o}dinger operator acting on a class of graphs. In particular, we derive tight bounds for the gap of Schr\"{o}dinger operators with convex…

A variety of physically relevant bilinear Schr\"odinger equations are known to be approximately controllable in large times. There are however examples which are approximately controllable in large times, but not in small times. This…
