For an open and dense subset of elliptic ${\rm SL}(2,\mathbb R)$ matrix cocycles, we construct a family of loosely Bernoulli ergodic measures with zero top Lyapunov exponent. This provides a counterpart to a classical result by Furstenberg.…

We construct multidimensional almost-periodic Schr\"odinger operators whose spectrum has zero lower box counting dimension. In particular, the spectrum in these cases is a generalized Cantor set of zero Lebesgue measure.

For ergodic 1d Jacobi operators we prove that the random singular components of any spectral measure are almost surely mutually disjoint as long as one restricts to the set of positive Lyapunov exponent. In the context of extended Harper's…

Self-adjoint operators on infinite-dimensional spaces with continuous spectra are abundant but do not possess a basis of eigenfunctions. Rather, diagonalization is achieved through spectral measures. The SpecSolve package [SIAM Rev., 63(3)…

In this article we consider asymptotics for the spectral function of Schr\"odinger operators on the real line. Let $P:L^2(\mathbb{R})\to L^2(\mathbb{R})$ have the form $$ P:=-\tfrac{d^2}{dx^2}+W, $$ where $W$ is a self-adjoint first order…

The determination of the spectrum of a Schr\"odinger operator is a fundamental problem in mathematical quantum mechanics. We discuss a series of results showing that Schr\"odinger operators can exhibit spectra that are remarkably thin in…

We study one-dimensional random Jacobi operators corresponding to strictly ergodic dynamical systems. In this context, we characterize the spectrum of these operators by non-uniformity of the transfer matrices and the set where the Lyapunov…

We revisit the concept of spectral averaging and point out its origin in connection with one-parameter subgroups of $SL_2(\bbR)$ and the corresponding M\"obius transformations. In particular, we identify exponential Herglotz representations…
