We study the problem of minimizing or maximizing the fundamental spectral gap of Schr\"odinger operators on metric graphs with either a convex potential or a ``single-well'' potential on an appropriate specified subset. (In the case of…

Let $H$ be a generalized Schr\"odinger operator on a domain of a non-compact connected Riemannian manifold, and a generalized eigenfunction $u$ for $H$: that is, $u$ satisfies the equation $Hu=\lambda u$ in the weak sense but is not…

In this paper, we describe the leftmost eigenvalue of the non-selfadjoint operator $\mathcal{A}_h = -h^2\Delta+iV(x)$ with Dirichlet boundary conditions on a smooth bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n\,$, as $h\rightarrow0\,$. $V$ is…

We consider discrete Schr\"odinger operators with real periodic potentials on periodic graphs. The spectra of the operators consist of a finite number of bands. By "rolling up" a periodic graph along some appropriate directions we obtain…

We define a graph to be $S$-regular if it contains an equitable partition given by a matrix $S$. These graphs are generalizations of both regular and bipartite, biregular graphs. An $S$-regular matrix is defined then as a matrix on an…

We study Schr\"odinger operators on an infinite quantum graph of a chain form which consists of identical rings connected at the touching points by $\delta$-couplings with a parameter $\alpha\in\R$. If the graph is "straight", i.e. periodic…

We study Schr\"{o}dinger operator $H=-\Delta+V(x)$ in dimension two, $V(x)$ being a limit-periodic potential. We prove that the spectrum of $H$ contains a semiaxis and there is a family of generalized eigenfunctions at every point of this…

Commutator relations are used to investigate the spectra of Schr\"odinger Hamiltonians, $H = -\Delta + V({x}),$ acting on functions of a smooth, compact $d$-dimensional manifold $M$ immersed in $\bbr^{\nu}, \nu \geq d+1$. Here $\Delta$…

We study Schr\"odinger operators $H=-\Delta+V$ in $L^2(\Omega)$ where $\Omega$ is $\mathbb R^d$ or the half-space $\mathbb R_+^d$, subject to (real) Robin boundary conditions in the latter case. For $p>d$ we construct a non-real potential…
