Let $(\mu, \Lambda)$ be the canonical spectral pair generated by a Hadamard triple $(N,B,L)$ in $\mathbb{R}$ with $0\in B \cap L$, which means that the family $\big\{ e_\lambda(x)=e^{2\pi \mathrm{i} \lambda x}: \lambda \in \Lambda \big\}$…

Given an expansive matrix $R\in M_d({\mathbb Z})$ and a finite set of digit $B$ taken from $ {\mathbb Z}^d/R({\mathbb Z}^d)$. It was shown previously that if we can find an $L$ such that $(R,B,L)$ forms a Hadamard triple, then the…

Let $\mu$ be a self-similar measure generated by iterated function system of four maps of equal contraction ratio $0<\rho<1$. We study when $\mu$ is a spectral measure which means that it admits an exponential orthonormal basis $\{e^{2\pi i…

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ be a set with finite Lebesgue measure such that, for a fixed radius $r>0$, the Lebesgue measure of $\Omega \cap B_r (x)$ is equal to a positive constant when $x$ varies in the essential boundary of…

Let $\mu_{q, b}$ be the Cantor measure associated with the iterated function system $f_i(x)=x/b+i/q, 0\le i\le q-1$, where $2\le q, b/q\in \Z$. In this paper, we consider spectra and maximal orthogonal sets of the Cantor measure $\mu_{q,…

The Fuglede conjecture states that a set is spectral if and only if it tiles by translation. The conjecture was disproved by T. Tao for dimensions 5 and higher by giving a counterexample in $\mathbb{Z}_3^5$. We present a computer program…

A measure on a locally compact Abelian group is said to have a natural spectrum if its spectrum is equal to the closure of the range of the Fourier-Stieltjes transform. In this paper we continue the study of spectrally reasonable measures…

We investigate tiling properties of spectra of measures, i.e., sets $\Lambda$ in $\br$ such that $\{e^{2\pi i \lambda x}: \lambda\in\Lambda\}$ forms an orthogonal basis in $L^2(\mu)$, where $\mu$ is some finite Borel measure on $\br$. Such…

We describe a class of measurable subsets $\Omega$ in $\br^d$ such that $L^2(\Omega)$ has an orthogonal basis of frequencies $e_\lambda(x)=e^{i2\pi\lambda\cdot x}(x\in\Omega)$ indexed by $\lambda\in\Lambda\subset\br^d$. We show that such…

A set $R\subset \mathbb{N}$ is called rational if it is well-approximable by finite unions of arithmetic progressions. Examples of rational sets include many classical sets of number-theoretical origin such as the set of squarefree numbers,…

Let $(\mathcal{A},\mathrm{tr})$ be a von Neumann algebra with a faithful, normal trace $\mathrm{tr}:\mathcal{A}\rightarrow\mathbb{C}.$ For each $a\in\mathcal{A},$ define \[…

A set $\Omega$ in a locally compact abelian group is called spectral if $L^2(\Omega)$ has an orthogonal basis of group characters. An important problem, connected with the so-called Spectral Set Conjecture (saying that $\Omega$ is spectral…

We show that any $L^2$-bounded rational function in free semicircular random variables is a bounded operator, which implies the coincidence of the usual spectrum and $L^2$-spectrum for rational functions. Based on this observation, we also…

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…

We prove that the set of proper ideals of a monoid endowed with coarse lower topology is a spectral space.

The purpose of the present paper is to place a number of geometric (and hands-on) configurations relating to spectrum and geometry inside a general framework for the {\it Fuglede conjecture}. Note that in its general form, the Fuglede…

The category of rational O(2)-equivariant spectra splits as a product of cyclic and dihedral parts. Using the classification of rational G-equivariant spectra for finite groups G, we classify the dihedral part of rational O(2)-equivariant…

The spectrum of one-dimensional discrete Schr\"odinger operators associated to strictly ergodic dynamical systems is shown to coincide with the set of zeros of the Lyapunov exponent if and only if the Lyapunov exponent exists uniformly.…

We show that the spectral-tile implication in the Fuglede conjecture in dimension 1 is equivalent to a Universal Tiling Conjecture and also to similar forms of the same implication for some simpler sets, such as unions of intervals with…

The spectrum of a first-order logic sentence is the set of natural numbers that are cardinalities of its finite models. In this paper we study the hierarchy of first-order spectra based on the number of variables. It has been conjectured…
