This paper shows that the resolvent algebra $\mathcal{R}\left( \mathbb{R}^2,\sigma \right)$ can accommodate dynamics induced by self-adjoint Hamiltonians on $L^2\left( \mathbb{R} \right)$ describing a single non-relativistic spinless…

A non-Hermitian P$_{\phi}$T$_{\phi}$-symmetrized spherically-separable Dirac Hamiltonian is considered. It is observed that the descendant Hamiltonians H$_{r}$, H$_{\theta}$, and H$_{\phi}$ play essential roles and offer some user-feriendly…

We consider the Laplacian on a class of smooth domains $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^{\nu}$, $\nu\ge 2$, with attractive Robin boundary conditions: \[ Q^\Omega_\alpha u=-\Delta u, \quad \dfrac{\partial u}{\partial n}=\alpha u \text{ on }…

We prove a quantitative unique continuation principle for infinite dimensional spectral subspaces of Schr\"odinger operators. Let $\Lambda_L = (-L/2,L/2)^d$ and $H_L = -\Delta_L + V_L$ be a Schr\"odinger operator on $L^2 (\Lambda_L)$ with a…
