We consider a Schr\"odinger operator $H=-\Delta+V(\vec x)$ in dimension two with a quasi-periodic potential $V(\vec x)$. We prove that the absolutely continuous spectrum of $H$ contains a semiaxis and there is a family of generalized…

The resonant tunneling phenomenon is well understood in quantum mechanics. We argue why a similar phenomenon must be present in quantum field theory. We then use the functional Schr\"odinger method to show how resonant tunneling through…

We investigate the Hardy space H^1_L associated to the Schr\"odinger operator L=-\Delta+V on R^n, where V=\sum_{j=1}^d V_j. We assume that each V_j depends on variables from a linear subspace VV_j of \Rn, dim VV_j \geq 3, and V_j belongs to…

In the tight binding model with multiple degenerate vacua we might treat wave function overlaps as instanton tunnelings between different wells (vacua). An amplitude for such a tunneling process might be constructed as $\mathsf{T}_{i\to…
