In this expository paper, we consider the Hardy-Schr\"odinger operator $-\Delta -\gamma/|x|^2$ on a smooth domain \Omega of R^n with 0\in\bar{\Omega}, and describe how the location of the singularity 0, be it in the interior of \Omega or on…
In this paper we consider the symmetric Kolmogorov operator $L=\Delta +\frac{\nabla \mu}{\mu}\cdot \nabla$ on $L^2(\mathbb R^N,d\mu)$, where $\mu$ is the density of a probability measure on $\mathbb R^N$. Under general conditions on $\mu$…
If $T$ is a (densely defined) self-adjoint operator acting on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ and $I$ stands for the identity operator, we introduce the delta function operator $\lambda \mapsto \delta \left(\lambda I-T\right) $ at…

We consider the minimisation of Dirichlet eigenvalues $\lambda_k$, $k \in \N$, of the Laplacian on cuboids of unit measure in $\R^3$. We prove that any sequence of optimal cuboids in $\R^3$ converges to a cube of unit measure in the sense…
In this paper, we consider discrete Schr\"odinger operators of the form, \begin{equation*} (Hu)(n)= u({n+1})+u({n-1})+V(n)u(n). \end{equation*} We view $H$ as a perturbation of the free operator $H_0$, where $(H_0u)(n)= u({n+1})+u({n-1})$.…
We study the spectrum and dynamics of a one-dimensional discrete Dirac operator in a random potential obtained by damping an i.i.d. environment with an envelope of type $n^{-\alpha}$ for $\alpha>0$. We recover all the spectral regimes…
We prove upper and lower bounds for sums of eigenvalues of Lieb-Thirring type for non-self-adjoint Schr\"odinger operators on the half-line. The upper bounds are established for general classes of integrable potentials and are shown to be…
For relatively form-compact perturbations of non-negative selfadjoint operators, we obtain an upper bound on the number of discrete eigenvalues in half-planes separated from the positive real axis. The bound is given in terms of a partial…

We study Darboux transformations associated with the focusing nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation (NLS_-) and their effect on spectral properties of the underlying Lax operator. The latter is a formally J-self-adjoint (but non-self-adjoint)…
We prove the absence of eigenvaues of the three-dimensional Dirac operator with non-Hermitian potentials in unbounded regions of the complex plane under smallness conditions on the potentials in Lebesgue spaces. Our sufficient conditions…
We study dispersive properties of the one-dimensional Schr{\"o}dinger equation with a short-range array of delta interactions. More precisely, we consider the self-adjoint operator obtained by perturbing the free Laplacian on the line with…
In this paper we develop a kind of A_p theory for Calderon-Zygmund operators in a non-homogeneous setting. Let \mu be a Borel measure on \R^d which may be non doubling. The only condition that \mu must satisfy is \mu(B(x,r))\leq Cr^n for…
The Dirac equation is generalized to $D+1$ space-time.The conserved angular momentum operators and their quantum numbers are discussed. The eigenfunctions of the total angular momenta are calculated for both odd $D$ and even $D$ cases. The…
