We prove that 3-dimensional Schrodinger operator with slowly decaying potential has an absolutely continuous spectrum that fills the positive half-line. The asymptotics of Green's function is obtained as well.
We study the Schroedinger operator with a constant magnetic field in the exterior of a two-dimensional compact domain. Functions in the domain of the operator are subject to a boundary condition of the third type (Robin condition). In…
We obtain quasimode, eigenfunction and spectral projection bounds for Schr\"odinger operators, $H_V=-\Delta_g+V(x)$, on compact Riemannian manifolds $(M,g)$ of dimension $n\ge2$, which extend the results of the third author~\cite{sogge88}…
We review recent advances in the spectral theory of Schr\"odinger operators with decaying potentials. The area has seen spectacular progress in the past few years, stimulated by several conjectures stated by Barry Simon starting at the 1994…
We consider the operator ${\mathcal A}_h=-\Delta+iV$ in the semi-classical $h\rightarrow 0$, where $V$ is a smooth real potential with no critical points. We obtain both the left margin of the spectrum, as well as resolvent estimates on the…
We consider discrete one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators whose potentials are generated by sampling along the orbits of a general hyperbolic transformation. Specifically, we show that if the sampling function is a non-constant H\"older…
Using an extension of the H\"ormander product of distributions, we obtain an intrinsic formulation of one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators with singular potentials. This formulation is entirely defined in terms of standard {\it Schwartz}…
The eigenvalue problem for the Sen--Witten operator on closed spacelike hypersurfaces is investigated. The (square of its) eigenvalues are shown to be given exactly by the 3-surface integral appearing in the expression of the total…
We study some spectral properties of a simple two-dimensional model for small angle defects in crystals and alloys. Starting from a periodic potential $V \colon \R^2 \to \R$, we let $V_\theta(x,y) = V(x,y)$ in the right half-plane $\{x \ge…
An infinite sequence of potential well functions is considered. A numerical method is used for the Schr$\ddot{\text{o}}$dinger equation to obtain the energy eigenvalue spectra for a number of these potential well functions. The results for…
We study eigenvalues of non-self-adjoint Schr\"odinger operators on non-trapping asymptotically conic manifolds of dimension $n\ge 3$. Specifically, we are concerned with the following two types of estimates. The first one deals with Keller…
We consider a family of multi-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators $-\Delta+t V$ with a real $t$. The potential $V$ in our model decays at infinity in a special way, so that it satisfies a certain integral condition. We prove that the…
We consider the stationary semilinear Schr\"odinger equation $-\Delta u + a(x) u = f(x,u)$, $u\in H^1(\R^N)$, where $a$ and $f$ are continuous functions converging to some limits $a_\infty>0$ and $f_\infty=f_\infty(u)$ as $|x|\to\infty$. In…
Let $V$ be a potential on $\RR^3$ that is smooth everywhere except at a discrete set $\maS$ of points, where it has singularities of the form $Z/\rho^2$, with $\rho(x) = |x - p|$ for $x$ close to $p$ and $Z$ continuous on $\RR^3$ with $Z(p)…
For a bounded corner domain $\Omega$, we consider the Robin Laplacian in $\Omega$ with large Robin parameter. Exploiting multiscale analysis and a recursive procedure, we have a precise description of the mechanism giving the ground state…
We study how the spectral properties of ergodic Schr\"odinger operators are reflected in the asymptotic properties of its periodic approximation as the period tends to infinity. The first property we address is the asymptotics of the…
We construct a potential $V$ on $\RR^d$, smooth away from one pole, and a sequence of quasi-modes for the operator $-\Delta+V$, which concentrate on this pole. No smoothing effect, Strichartz estimates nor dispersive inequalities hold for…
We consider the spectrum of a Schroedinger operator in a multi-dimensional cylinder perturbed by a shrinking potential. We study the phenomenon of a new eigenvalue emerging from the threshold of the essential spectrum and give the…
We study discrete spectral quantities associated to Schr\"odinger operators of the form $-\Delta_{\mathbb{R}^d}+V_N$, $d$ odd. The potential $V_N$ models a highly disordered crystal; it varies randomly at scale $N^{-1} \ll 1$. We use…
