We consider the topological relation behind the spectral behavior of a linear operator that arises in the stability problem of traveling waves on a large bounded domain. When the domain size tends to infinity, the absolute and asymptotic…

We consider Schr\"odinger operators $H=-\Delta+V({\mathbf x})$ in ${\mathbb R}^d$, $d\geq2$, with quasi-periodic potentials $V({\mathbf x})$. We prove that the absolutely continuous spectrum of a generic $H$ contains a semi-axis…

We study the multi-dimensional operator $(H_x u)_n=\sum_{|m-n|=1}u_{m}+f(T^n(x))u_n$, where $T$ is the shift of the torus $\T^d$. When $d=2$, we show the spectrum of $H_x$ is almost surely purely continuous for a.e. $\alpha$ and generic…

We prove that if T is a strictly singular 1-1 operator defined on an infinite dimensional Banach space X, then for every infinite dimensional subspace Y of X there exists an infinite dimensional subspace Z of Y such that Z contains orbits…

We prove that one-dimensional reflectionless Schr\"odinger operators with spectrum a homogeneous set in the sense of Carleson, belonging to the class introduced by Sodin and Yuditskii, have purely absolutely continuous spectra. This class…

In this paper, we study the stability of Property $(UW_E)$ under commuting finite rank perturbation in terms of spectrum induced by consistent in invertibility for operators and a variant of upper semi-Weyl spectrum. Also we discuss the…

All unitary perturbations of a given unitary operator $U$ by finite rank $d$ operators with fixed range can be parametrized by $(d\times d)$ unitary matrices $\Gamma$; this generalizes unitary rank one ($d=1$) perturbations, where the…

In four dimensional unitary scale invariant theories, arguments based on the proof of the a-theorem suggest that the trace of the energy-momentum tensor T vanishes when the momentum is light-like, p^2=0. We show that there exists a local…

We survey some of the universality properties of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$ and then explain how to obtain a natural quantization of Voronin's universality theorem (and of its various extensions). Our work builds on the theory of…

In this work, we prove that linear bounded operators $T$ on a Banach space $X$ allowing spectral cuts along rectifiable Jordan curves meeting their spectrum are related to classes of operators admitting an unconventional functional…

By a bounded backward sequence of the operator $T$ we mean a bounded sequence $\{x_n\}$ satisfying $Tx_{n+1}=x_n$. In \cite{Pa} we have characterized contractions with strongly stable nonunitary part in terms of bounded backward sequences.…

We establish the following result, confirming a conjecture of Jean Esterle. For each closed subset $E$ of the unit circle of Lebesgue measure zero, there exists a positive sequence $u_n\to\infty$ with the following property: if $T$ is a…

We propose a general correspondence which associates a non-perturbative quantum-mechanical operator to a toric Calabi-Yau manifold, and we conjecture an explicit formula for its spectral determinant in terms of an M-theoretic version of the…

In this work we consider the $\eta$-invariant for pseudodifferential operators of tensor product type, also called bisingular pseudodifferential operators. We study complex powers of classical bisingular operators. We prove the trace…

Characteristic functions of linear operators are analytic functions that serve as complete unitary invariants. Such functions, as long as they are built in a natural and canonical manner, provide representations of inner functions on a…

We investigate structural properties and normality criteria for certain classes of bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space. We show that an operator $T$ with polar decomposition $T = U|T|$ is self-adjoint if and only if $T$ is…

Finite rank perturbations $T=N+K$ of a bounded normal operator $N$ on a separable Hilbert space are studied thanks to a natural functional model of $T$; in its turn the functional model solely relies on a perturbation matrix/ characteristic…

For any measurable set $E$ of a measure space $(X, \mu)$, let $P_E$ be the (orthogonal) projection on the Hilbert space $L^2(X, \mu)$ with the range $ran \, P_E = \{f \in L^2(X, \mu) : f = 0 \ \ a.e. \ on \ E^c\}$ that is called a standard…

In this paper, we prove necessary and sufficient conditions for a sense-preserving harmonic function to be absolutely convex in the open unit disk. We also estimate the coefficient bound and obtain growth, covering and area theorems for…

We study expansions of Hilbert spaces with a bounded normal operator $T$. We axiomatize this theory in a natural language and identify all of its completions. We prove the definability of the adjoint $T^*$ and prove quantifier elimination…
