We study Schr\"odinger operators $H=-\Delta+V$ in $L^2(\Omega)$ where $\Omega$ is $\mathbb R^d$ or the half-space $\mathbb R_+^d$, subject to (real) Robin boundary conditions in the latter case. For $p>d$ we construct a non-real potential…

We consider the Schr\"odinger operator $-\Delta+V$ for negative potentials $V$, on open sets with positive first eigenvalue of the Dirichlet-Laplacian. We show that the spectrum of $-\Delta+V$ is positive, provided that $V$ is greater than…
Let $H_0$ be a purely absolutely continuous selfadjoint operator acting on some separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space and $V$ be a compact non-selfadjoint perturbation. We relate the regularity properties of $V$ to various spectral…
