We study several trace operators and spaces that are related to the bi-Laplacian. They are motivated by the development of ultraweak formulations for the bi-Laplace equation with homogeneous Dirichlet condition, but are also relevant to…

A general approach to proving that the length spectrum of a compact Riemannian manifold is an invariant of the Laplace spectrum comes from considering the wave trace, a spectrally determined tempered distribution. The Poisson relation…

The authors consider a scattering problem for electric potentials that have a component which is critically singular in the sense of Lebesgue spaces, and a component given by a measure supported on a compact Lipschitz hypersurface. They…

In the first part of the paper we show Weyl type spectral asymptotic formulas for pseudodifferential operators $P_a$ of order $2a$, with type and factorization index $a\in R_+$, restricted to compact sets with boundary; this includes…

We consider the 3D Schr\"odinger operator $H_0$ with constant magnetic field $B$ of scalar intensity $b>0$, and its perturbations $H_+$ (resp., $H_-$) obtained by imposing Dirichlet (resp., Neumann) conditions on the boundary of the bounded…

We consider the operators $H_0=M_0^{-1}(x) P(D)$ and $H =M^{-1} (x) P(D)$ where $M_0 (x)$ and $M (x)$ are positively definite bounded matrix-valued functions and $P(D)$ is an elliptic differential operator. Our main result is that the wave…

This paper shows that the wave trace of a bounded and strictly convex planar domain may be arbitrarily smooth in a neighborhood of some point in the length spectrum. In other words, the Poisson relation, which asserts that the singular…

We study operators defined on a Hilbert space defined by a self-affine Delone set $\Lambda$ and show that the usual trace of a restriction of the operator to finite-dimensional subspaces satisfies a certain $\limsup$ law controlled by…

In this paper we develop a Gidas-Ni-Nirenberg technique for polyharmonic equations and systems of Lane-Emden type. As far as we are concerned with Dirichlet boundary conditions, we prove uniqueness of solutions up to eighth order equations,…

We consider the unique determinations of impenetrable obstacles or diffraction grating profiles in $\mathbb{R}^3$ by a single far-field measurement within polyhedral geometries. We are particularly interested in the case that the scattering…

We consider the Calder\'on problem for systems with unknown zeroth and first order terms, and improve on previously known results. More precisely, let $(M, g)$ be a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary, let $A$ be a connection matrix…

In a recent preprint, we showed that for the Dirichlet Laplacian $\Delta$ on the unit disk, the wave trace ${Tr}(e^{it\sqrt{\Delta}})$, which has complicated singularities on $2\pi - \epsilon < t < 2\pi$, is, on the interval $2\pi < t <…

We give a necessary and sufficient condition on a positive compact operator $T$ for the existence of a singular trace (i.e. a trace vanishing on the finite rank operators) which takes a finite non-zero value on $T$. This generalizes…

We prove perturbation results for traces on normed ideals in semifinite von Neumann algebra factors. This includes the case of Dixmier traces. In particular, we establish existence of spectral shift measures with initial operators being…

We extend the well-known trace formula for Hill's equation to general one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators. The new function $\xi$, which we introduce, is used to study absolutely continuous spectrum and inverse problems.

After recalling a fundamental identity relating traces and modified Fredholm determinants, we apply it to a class of half-line Schr\"odinger operators $(- d^2/dx^2) + q$ on $(0,\infty)$ with purely discrete spectra. Roughly speaking, the…

We investigate trace formulas for one-dimensional Schroedinger operators which are trace class perturbations of quasi-periodic finite-gap operators using Krein's spectral shift theory. In particular, we establish the conserved quantities…

We study discrete Schroedinger operators with compactly supported potentials on the square lattice. Constructing spectral representations and representing S-matrices by the generalized eigenfunctions, we show that the potential is uniquely…

Let $H_0 = -\Delta + V_0(x)$ be a Schroedinger operator on $L_2(\mathbb{R}^\nu),$ $\nu=1,2,$ or 3, where $V_0(x)$ is a bounded measurable real-valued function on $\mathbb{R}^\nu.$ Let $V$ be an operator of multiplication by a bounded…
