We show that the spectral theory of the Dirac operator $D = i\delsl-\sigma(x) -i\pi(x)\gam_5$ in a static background $(\sigma(x),\pi(x))$ in 1+1 space-time dimensions, is underlined by a certain generalization of supersymmetric quantum…

We investigate the properties of self-adjointness of a two-dimensional Dirac operator on an infinite sector with infinite mass boundary conditions and in presence of a Coulomb-type potential with the singularity placed on the vertex. In the…

Let $\Omega$ be an open set in Euclidean space $\R^m,\, m=2,3,...$, and let $v_{\Omega}$ denote the torsion function for $\Omega$. It is known that $v_{\Omega}$ is bounded if and only if the bottom of the spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian…

In order to extend the spectral action principle to non-compact spaces, we propose a framework for spectral triples where the algebra may be non-unital but the resolvent of the Dirac operator remains compact. We show that an example is…
