We analyze Schr\"odinger operators whose potential is given by a singular interaction supported on a sub-manifold of the ambient space. Under the assumption that the operator has at least two eigenvalues below its essential spectrum we…
We introduce an inhomogeneously-nonlinear Schr{\"o}dinger lattice, featuring a defocusing segment, a focusing segment and a transitional interface between the two. We illustrate that such inhomogeneous settings present vastly different…
In the following we are interested in the spectral gaps of discrete quasiperiodic Schr\"odinger operators when the frequency is Diophantine, the potential is analytic, and in the subcritical regime. The gap-labelling theorem asserts in this…
