We consider a periodic magnetic Schr\"odinger operator $H^h$, depending on the semiclassical parameter $h>0$, on a noncompact Riemannian manifold $M$ such that $H^1(M, {\mathbb R})=0$ endowed with a properly discontinuous cocompact…
In \cite{Os} a general spectral approximation theory was developed for compact operators on a Banach space which does not require that the operators be self-adjoint and also provides a first order correction term. Here we extend some of the…
We construct multidimensional Schr\"odinger operators with a spectrum that has no gaps at high energies and that is nowhere dense at low energies. This gives the first example for which this widely expected topological structure of the…
We investigate the existence of ground states for the focusing Nonlinear Schr\"odinger Equation on the infinite three-dimensional cubic grid. We extend the result found for the analogous two-dimensional grid by proving an appropriate…

We describe the spectrum of the $k$-form Laplacian on conformally cusp Riemannian manifolds. The essential spectrum is shown to vanish precisely when the $k$ and $k-1$ de Rham cohomology groups of the boundary vanish. We give Weyl-type…

We use a classical result of Hildebrandt to establish simple conditions for the absence of eigenvalues of non-selfadjoint discrete and continuous Schr\"odinger operators on the boundary of their numerical range.
We consider Schr\"odinger operators on the real line with limit-periodic potentials and show that, generically, the spectrum is a Cantor set of zero Lebesgue measure and all spectral measures are purely singular continuous. Moreover, we…
We prove dispersive estimates for Schroedinger operators in dimension three without any assumptions on zero energy. Ie, we allows resonances and/or eigenvalues at zero energy.
The spectral properties of the Schr\"odinger operator $T_ty= -y''+q_ty$ in $L^2(\R)$ are studied, with a potential $q_t(x)=p_1(x), x<0, $ and $q_t(x)=p(x+t), x>0, $ where $p_1, p$ are periodic potentials and $t\in \R$ is a parameter of…
We show that the non-embedded eigenvalues of the Dirac operator on the real line with non-Hermitian potential $V$ lie in the disjoint union of two disks in the right and left half plane, respectively, provided that the $L^1-norm$ of $V$ is…
We study the spectra of non-selfadjoint first-order operators on the interval with non-local point interactions, formally given by ${i\partial_x+V+k\langle \delta,\cdot\rangle}$. We give precise estimates on the location of the eigenvalues…
We produce a new proof and extend results by Harrell and Stubbe for the discrete spectrum of a self-adjoint operator. An abstract approach--based on commutator algebra, the Rayleigh-Ritz principle, and an ``optimal'' usage of the…
Let L be a Schroedinger operator with potential W in L^{(n+1)/2}. We prove that there is no embedded eigenvalue. The main tool is an Lp Carleman type estimate, which builds on delicate dispersive estimates established in a previous paper.…
We analyze Schr\"odinger operators whose potential is given by a singular interaction supported on a sub-manifold of the ambient space. Under the assumption that the operator has at least two eigenvalues below its essential spectrum we…
We consider a semi-periodic two-dimensional Schr\"odinger operator which is cut at an angle. When the cut is commensurate with the periodic lattice, the spectrum of the operator has the band-gap Bloch structure. We prove that in the…
We consider the Schroedinger operator L_{\alpha} on the half-line with a periodic background potential and the Wigner-von Neumann potential of Coulomb type: csin(2\omega x+d)/(x+1). It is known that the continuous spectrum of the operator…
The nonlinear Schroedinger model is a prototypical dispersive wave equation that features finite time blowup, either for supercritical exponents (for fixed dimension) or for supercritical dimensions (for fixed nonlinearity exponent). Upon…
