Each bounded operator T on an infinite dimensional Hilbert space H is a sum of three operators that are similar to positive operators; two such operators are sufficient if T is not a compact perturbation of a scalar. The spectra of L\"uders…
We prove a quantitative distortion theorem for iterated function systems that generate sets of continued fractions. As a consequence, we obtain upper and lower bounds on the Hausdorff dimension of any set of real or complex continued…
We develop a new approach to the computation of the Hausdorff dimension of the invariant set of an iterated function system or IFS. In the one dimensional case, our methods require only C^3 regularity of the maps in the IFS. The key idea,…
We prove bounds for the almost sure value of the Hausdorff dimension of the limsup set of a sequence of balls in $\mathbf{R}^d$ whose centres are independent, identically distributed random variables. The formulas obtained involve the rate…
We prove that the Hausdorff dimension of the set of badly approximable systems of m linear forms in n variables over the field of Laurent series with coefficients from a finite field is maximal. This is a analogue of Schmidt's…
We consider point spectrum traces in the Hofstadter model. We show how to recover the full quantum Hofstadter trace by integrating these point spectrum traces with the appropriate free density of states on the lattice. This construction is…
In \cite{B} Bourgain proves that Sarnak's disjointness conjecture holds for a certain class of Three-interval exchange maps. In the present paper we slightly improve the Diophantine condition of Bourgain and estimate the constants in the…
We fix a positive integer $M$, and we consider expansions in arbitrary real bases $q>1$ over the alphabet $\{0,1,...,M\}$. We denote by $U_q$ the set of real numbers having a unique expansion. Completing many former investigations, we give…
In this article, we study the spectrum of the magnetic Dirac operator, and the magnetic Dirac operator with potential over complete Riemannian manifolds. We find sufficient conditions on the potentials as well as the manifold so that the…
We consider one dimensional quantum Ising spin-1/2 chains with two-valued nearest neighbor couplings arranged in a quasi-periodic sequence, with uniform, transverse magnetic field. By employing the Jordan-Wigner transformation of the spin…
In this paper we use results on reducibility, localization and duality for the Almost Mathieu operator, \[ (H_{b,\phi} x)_n= x_{n+1} +x_{n-1} + b \cos(2 \pi n \omega + \phi)x_n \] on $l^2(\mathbb{Z})$ and its associated eigenvalue equation…
Positive definite functions are fundamental to many areas of applied mathematics, probability theory, spatial statistics and machine learning, amogst others. Motivated by a problem coming from the maximum likelihood estimation under fixed…
Basic properties of Hausdorff content, dimension, and measure of subsets of metric spaces are discussed, especially in connection with Lipschitz mappings and topological dimension.
We consider a two-dimensional massless Dirac operator coupled to a magnetic field $B$ and an electric potential $V$ growing at infinity. We find a characterization of the spectrum of the resulting operator $H$ in terms of the relation…
We give conditions on a general family $P_{\lambda}:\R^n\to\R^m, \lambda \in \Lambda,$ of orthogonal projections which guarantee that the Hausdorff dimension formula $\dim A\cap P_{\lambda}^{-1}\{u\}=s-m$ holds generically for measurable…
Following in the footsteps of P. Erd\H{o}s and A. R\'enyi we compute the Hausdorff dimension of sets of numbers whose digits with respect to their $Q$-Cantor series expansions satisfy various statistical properties. In particular, we…
We demonstrate criteria, purely based on finite subwords of the potential, to guarantee spectral inclusion as well as Hausdorff approximation of pseudospectra or even spectra of generalized Schr\"odinger operators on the discrete line or…
We deal with Besicovitch's problem of existence of discrete orbits for transitive cylindrical transformations $T_\varphi:(x,t)\mapsto(x+\alpha,t+\varphi(x))$ where $Tx=x+\alpha$ is an irrational rotation on the circle $\T$ and…
In the moduli space $\mathcal{M}_d$ of degree $d$ rational maps, the bifurcation locus is the support of a closed $(1,1)$ positive current $T_\bif$ which is called the bifurcation current. This current gives rise to a measure…
We consider one-dimensional quasi-periodic Schr\"odinger operators with analytic potentials. In the positive Lyapunov exponent regime, we prove large deviation estimates which lead to optimal H\"older continuity of the Lyapunov exponents…
