We consider selfadjoint operators obtained by pasting a finite number of boundary relations with one-dimensional boundary space. A typical example of such an operator is the Schr\"odinger operator on a star-graph with a finite number of…
The spectrum of a Schr\"odinger operator with periodic potential generally consists of bands and gaps. In this paper, for fixed m, we consider the problem of maximizing the gap-to-midgap ratio for the m-th spectral gap over the class of…

Boundedness of wave operators for Schr\"odinger operators in one space dimension for a class of singular potentials, admitting finitely many Dirac delta distributions, is proved. Applications are presented to, for example, dispersive…
Quasiperiodic Jacobi operators arise as mathematical models of quasicrystals and in more general studies of structures exhibiting aperiodic order. The spectra of these self-adjoint operators can be quite exotic, such as Cantor sets, and…
We prove that, if an isospectral torus contains a discrete Schr\"odinger operator with nonconstant potential, the shift dynamics on that torus cannot be minimal. Consequently, we specify a generic sense in which finite unions of…
This note is devoted to optimal spectral estimates for Schr\"odinger operators on compact connected Riemannian manifolds without boundary. These estimates are based on the use of appropriate interpolation inequalities and on some recent…
We characterize the spectrum of one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators H=-d^2/dx^2+V with quasi-periodic complex-valued algebro-geometric potentials V (i.e., potentials V which satisfy one (and hence infinitely many) equation(s) of the…
The aim of the present thesis is twofold: to study the problem of discreteness of the spectrum of Schr\"odinger operators with matrix-valued potentials in ${\mathbb R}^d$ (Chapter 1), and to prove new pointwise bounds for weighted Bergman…
In this paper, we present an approach for explicitly constructing quasi-periodic Schr\"odinger operators with Cantor spectrum with $C^k$ potential. Additionally, we provide polynomial asymptotics on the size of spectral gaps.
We prove a variant of the so-called bilinear embedding theorem for operators in divergence form with complex coefficients and with nonnegative locally integrable potentials, subject to mixed boundary conditions, and acting on arbitrary open…
Consider in $L^2(\R)$ the \Sc operator family $H(g):=-d^2_x+V_g(x)$ depending on the real parameter $g$, where $V_g(x)$ is a complex-valued but $PT$ symmetric periodic potential. An explicit condition on $V$ is obtained which ensures that…
We introduce a notion of $\beta$-almost periodicity and prove quantitative lower spectral/quantum dynamical bounds for general bounded $\beta$-almost periodic potentials. Applications include a sharp arithmetic criterion of full spectral…
We show that 2D periodic operators with local and perpendicular defects form an algebra. We provide an algorithm of finding spectrum for such operators. While the continuous spectral components can be computed by simple algebraic operations…
Consider the discrete 1D Schr\"odinger operator on $\Z$ with an odd $2k$ periodic potential $q$. For small potentials we show that the mapping: $q\to $ heights of vertical slits on the quasi-momentum domain (similar to the…
We study the 1-D Schr\"odinger operators in Hilbert space $L^{2}(\mathbb{R})$ with real-valued Radon measure $q'(x)$, $q\in \mathrm{BV}_{loc}(\mathbb{R})$ as potentials. New sufficient conditions for minimal operators to be bounded below…
