This paper presents the spectral analysis of 1-dimensional Schroedinger operator on the half-line whose potential is a linear combination of the Coulomb term 1/r and the centrifugal term 1/r^2. The coupling constants are allowed to be…
The $\pi$-electronic structure of graphene in the presence of a modulated electric potential is investigated by the tight-binding model. The low-energy electronic properties are strongly affected by the period and field strength. Such a…
We consider Schr\"{o}dinger operators on $L^{2}({\mathbb R}^{d})\otimes L^{2}({\mathbb R}^{\ell})$ of the form $ H_{\omega}~=~H_{\perp}\otimes I_{\parallel} + I_{\perp} \otimes {H_\parallel} + V_{\omega}$, where $H_{\perp}$ and…

In this letter, we report our systematic construction of the lattice Hamiltonian model of topological orders on open surfaces, with explicit boundary terms. We do this mainly for the Levin-Wen stringnet model. The full Hamiltonian in our…
We work in the setting of infinite, not necessarily locally finite, weighted graphs. We give a sufficient condition for the essential self-adjointness of (discrete) Schr\"odinger operators $\mathcal{L}_{V}$ that are not necessarily lower…
I present an example of a discrete Schr"odinger operator that shows that it is possible to have embedded singular spectrum and, at the same time, discrete eigenvalues that approach the edges of the essential spectrum (much) faster than…
We study the quantum many-body ground states of electrons on the half-filled honeycomb lattice with short- and long-ranged density-density interactions as a model for graphene. To this end, we employ the recently developed truncated-unity…

Edge states in biased bilayer graphene in a magnetic field are studied within the four-band continuum model. The analysis is done for the semi-infinite graphene plane and for the graphene ribbon of a finite width, in the cases of zigzag and…
The paper is a continuation of the study started in \cite{Yorzh1}. Schrodinger operators on finite compact metric graphs are considered under the assumption that the matching conditions at the graph vertices are of $\delta$ type. Either an…

A quantum mechanical model of two interacting electrons in graphene is considered. We concentrate on the case of zero total momentum of the pair. We show that the dynamics of the system is very unusual. Both stationary and time-dependent…

We prove a quantitative unique continuation principle for infinite dimensional spectral subspaces of Schr\"odinger operators. Let $\Lambda_L = (-L/2,L/2)^d$ and $H_L = -\Delta_L + V_L$ be a Schr\"odinger operator on $L^2 (\Lambda_L)$ with a…
We study the threshold behaviour of two dimensional Schr{\" o}dinger operators with finitely many local point interactions. We show that the resolvent can either be continuously extended up to the threshold, in which case we say that the…
