There are three upper limits (2, 2.sqrt{2}, 2.sqrt{3}) of the Bell operator corresponding to different physical concepts: classical, hidden-variable and quantum-mechanical. Only the classical concept corresponding to the lowest limit has…

Given a quantum Hamiltonian, we explain how the dynamical properties of the underlying classical system affect the behaviour of quantum eigenstates in the semi-classical limit. We study this problem via the notion of semiclassical measures.…

This is a survey of the basic results on the behavior of the number of the eigenvalues of a Schr\"odinger operator, lying below its essential spectrum. We discuss both fast decaying potentials, for which this behavior is semiclassical, and…

We develop a microspectral theory for quasinilpotent linear operators $Q$ (i.e., those with $\sigma(Q) = \{0}$) in a Banach space. When such $Q$ is not compact, normal, or nilpotent, the classical spectral theory gives little information,…
