We establish two results concerning the Quantum Limits (QLs) of some sub-Laplacians. First, under a commutativity assumption on the vector fields involved in the definition of the sub- Laplacian, we prove that it is possible to split any QL…
Let P be a linear, second order, elliptic operator satisfying a Hardy inequality with potential W (i.e. $P-W\geq0$) and best constant $\alpha$. We give conditions so that the spectrum of $W^{-1}P$ is $[\alpha,\infty)$. We apply this to…
The stationary Schr\"odinger equation for an electron in a constant electromagnetic field with a non-Hermitian linear perturbation is studied. The wave function and the spectrum of the system are derived analytically, with the spectrum…
We begin with a description of spacetime by a 4-dimensional cubic lattice $\sscript$. It follows from this framework that the the speed of light is the only nonzero instantaneous speed for a particle. The dual space $\sscripthat$…
For a large class of quantum mechanical models of matter and radiation we develop an analytic perturbation theory for non-degenerate ground states. This theory is applicable, for example, to models of matter with static nuclei and…
The problem 2-LOCAL HAMILTONIAN has been shown to be complete for the quantum computational class QMA, see quant-ph/0406180. In this paper we show that this important problem remains QMA-complete when the interactions of the 2-local…
Entanglement or modular Hamiltonians play a crucial role in the investigation of correlations in quantum field theories. In particular, in 1+1 space-time dimensions, the spectra of entanglement Hamiltonians of conformal field theories…
Spectral densities connect correlation functions computed in quantum field theory to observables measured in experiments. For strongly-interacting theories, their non-perturbative determinations from lattice simulations are therefore of…
We study many-body properties of quantum harmonic oscillator lattices with disorder. A sufficient condition for dynamical localization, expressed as a zero-velocity Lieb-Robinson bound, is formulated in terms of the decay of the…
We discuss the potential scattering on the noncompact star graph. The Schr\"{o}dinger operator with the short-range potential localizing in a neighborhood of the graph vertex is considered. We study the asymptotic behavior the corresponding…
A soluble model of weakly coupled "molecular" and "nuclear" Hamiltonians is studied in order to exhibit explicitly the mechanism leading to the enhancement of fusion probability in case of a narrow near-threshold nuclear resonance. We,…
Recently, the stability of certain topological phases of matter under weak perturbations was proven. Here, we present a short, alternate proof of the same result. We consider models of topological quantum order for which the unperturbed…
In this paper the local iterative Lie-Schwinger block-diagonalization method, introduced in [FP], [DFPR1], and [DFPR2] for quantum chains, is extended to higher-dimensional quantum lattice systems with Hamiltonians that can be written as…
Interspersing unitary dynamics with local measurements results in measurement-induced phases and transitions in many-body quantum systems. When the evolution is driven by a local Hamiltonian, two types of transitions have been observed,…
We construct quantum models of two particles on a compact metric graph with singular two-particle interactions. The Hamiltonians are self-adjoint realisations of Laplacians acting on functions defined on pairs of edges in such a way that…
We study a two-dimensional motion of a charged particle in a weak random potential and a perpendicular magnetic field. The correlation length of the potential is assumed to be much larger than the de Broglie wavelength. Under such…
We study the spectral properties of a spin-boson Hamiltonian that depends on two continuous parameters $0\leq\Lambda<\infty$ (interaction strength) and $0\leq\alpha\leq\pi/2$ (integrability switch). In the classical limit this system has…

In the context of ground states of quantum many-body systems, the locality of entanglement between connected regions of space is directly tied to the locality of the corresponding entanglement Hamiltonian: the latter is dominated by local,…
