We establish a formula for the spectral flow of a smooth family of twisted Dirac operators on a closed odd-dimensional Riemannian spin manifold, generalizing a result by Getzler. The spectral flow is expressed in terms of the $\hat{A}$-form…
The space of $(2,0)$ models is of particular interest among all heterotic-string models because it includes the models with the minimal $SO(10)$ unification structure, which is well motivated by the Standard Model of particle physics data.…
We analyze the (discrete) spectrum of the semirelativistic ``spinless-Salpeter'' Hamiltonian H = \beta \sqrt{m^2 + p^2} + V(r), beta > 0, where V(r) represents an attractive, spherically symmetric potential in three dimensions. In order to…

We discuss operators of the type $H = -\Delta + V(x) - \alpha \delta(x-\Sigma)$ with an attractive interaction, $\alpha>0$, in $L^2(\mathbb{R}^3)$, where $\Sigma$ is an infinite surface, asymptotically planar and smooth outside a compact,…

We investigate the entanglement spectra of topological insulators which manifest edge states on a lattice with spatial boundaries. In the physical energy spectrum, a subset of the edge states that intersect the Fermi level translates to…
The paper determines and classifies the spectrum of a non-self-adjoint operator pencil generated by the time-harmonic Maxwell problem with a nonlinear dependence on the frequency for the case of two homogeneous materials joined at a planar…
The main resonance frequency is shown to depend on the initial conditions of the electron, and in particular on its initial transversal coordinate xo. This dependence is shown to give rise to a very strong inhomogeneous broadening of the…
This paper concerns spectral instability of shear flows in the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with sufficiently large Reynolds number: $R\to \infty$. It is well-documented in the physical literature, going back to Heisenberg, C.C.…
