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…

We discuss the localization behavior of localized electronic wave functions in the one- and two-dimensional tight-binding Anderson model with diagonal disorder. We find that the distributions of the local wave function amplitudes at fixed…

We demonstrate that the second eigenfunction of a perturbed fractional Laplace operator on a bounded interval can exhibit two sign changes, in stark contrast with the classical expectation that it should have exactly one zero. Our…

For time-frequency localization operators, related to the short-time Fourier transform, with symbol $R\Omega$, we work out the exact large $R$ eigenvalue behavior for rotationally invariant $\Omega$ and conjecture that the same relation…

We exhibit limit-periodic Schr\"odinger operators that are uniformly localized in the strongest sense possible. That is, for these operators there are uniform exponential decay rates such that every element of the hull has a complete set of…

We develop a semiclassical second microlocal calculus of pseudodifferential operators associated to linear coisotropic submanifolds $\mathcal{C}\subset T^* \mathbb{T}^n$, where $\mathbb{T}^n = \mathbb{R}^n / \mathbb{Z}^n$. First…

We consider the homogenization of an elliptic spectral problem with a large potential stated in a thin cylinder with a locally periodic perforation. The size of the perforation gradually varies from point to point. We impose homogeneous…

We consider the localization of eigenfunctions for the operator $L=-\mbox{div} A \nabla + V$ on a Lipschitz domain $\Omega$ and, more generally, on manifolds with and without boundary. In earlier work, two authors of the present paper…

We consider a polyharmonic operator $H=(-\Delta)^l+V(\x)$ in dimension two with $l\geq 2$, $l$ being an integer, and a quasi-periodic potential $V(\x)$. We prove that the absolutely continuous spectrum of $H$ contains a semiaxis and there…

There has been much recent interest, initiated by work of the physicists Hatano and Nelson, in the eigenvalues of certain random non-Hermitian periodic tridiagonal matrices and their bidiagonal limits. These eigenvalues cluster along a…

We solve for spectrum, obtain explicitly and study group properties of eigenfunctions of Dirac operator on the Riemann sphere $S^2$. The eigenvalues $\lambda$ are nonzero integers. The eigenfunctions are two-component spinors that belong to…

We analyse the eigenvectors of the adjacency matrix of a critical Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graph $\mathbb G(N,d/N)$, where $d$ is of order $\log N$. We show that its spectrum splits into two phases: a delocalized phase in the middle of the…

This paper deals with eigenvalue optimization problems for a family of natural Schr\"odinger operators arising in some geometrical or physical contexts. These operators, whose potentials are quadratic in curvature, are considered on closed…

We consider random Schr\"{o}dinger operators on $\ell^2(\mathbb{Z}^d)$ when the distribution of single site potentials is $\alpha$-H\"{o}lder continuous ($0<\alpha\leq 1$). In localized regime we study the distribution of eigenfunctions…

We study the localization of eigenfunctions produced by a point scatterer on a thin rectangle. We find an explicit set of eigenfunctions localized to part of the rectangle by showing that the one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operator with a…

In 1993, Robert Strichartz established a characterization for bounded eigenfunctions of the Laplacian on $\mathbb{R}^d$. Let $\left\{f_k \right\}_{k\in \mathbb{Z}}$ be a doubly infinite sequence of functions on $\mathbb{R}^d$ satisfying…

Eigenfunctions of 1d disordered Hamiltonian with constant imaginary vector potential are investigated. Even within the domain of complex eigenvalues the wave functions are shown to be strongly localized. However, this localization is of a…

We generalize the approach to localization in one dimension introduced by Kunz-Souillard, and refined by Delyon-Kunz-Souillard and Simon, in the early 1980's in such a way that certain correlations are allowed. Several applications of this…

We consider a polyharmonic operator $H=(-\Delta)^l+V(\x)$ in dimension two with $l\geq 2$, $l$ being an integer, and a quasi-periodic potential $V(\x)$. We prove that the spectrum of $H$ contains a semiaxis and there is a family of…

We study the first Dirichlet eigenfunction of the Laplacian in a $n$-dimensional convex domain. For domains of a fixed inner radius, estimates of Chiti imply that the ratio of the $L^2$-norm and $L^{\infty}$-norm of the eigenfunction is…
