The Dry Ten Martini Problem for Sturmian Hamiltonians is affirmatively solved. Concretely, we prove that all spectral gaps are open for Schr\"odinger operators with Sturmian potentials and non-vanishing coupling constant. A key approach…

We solve the Dry Ten Martini Problem for the unitary almost Mathieu operator with Diophantine frequencies in the non-critical regime.

In this paper we prove the dry version of the Ten Martini problem: Cantor spectrum with all gaps open, for the extended Harper's model in the non self-dual region for Diophantine frequencies.

For any fixed irrational frequency and trigonometric-polynomial potential, we show that every type I energy with positive Lyapunov exponent that satisfies the gap-labelling condition is a boundary of an open spectral gap. As a corollary,…

This extended Oberwolfach report (to appear in the proceedings of the MFO Workshop 2335: Aspects of Aperiodic Order) announces the full solution to the Dry Ten Martini Problem for Sturmian Hamiltonians. Specifically, we show that all…

We apply recently developed methods for the construction of quasi-periodic transfer matrices to the Dry Ten Martini problem for the critical almost-Mathieu Operator, also known as the Aubry-Andre-Harper (AAH) model.

This paper solves ``The Dry Ten Martini Problem'' for $C^2$ cosine-type quasiperiodic Schr\"odinger operators with large coupling constants and Diophantine frequencies, a model originally introduced by Sinai in 1987 \cite{sinai}. This shows…

We prove the conjecture (known as the ``Ten Martini Problem'' after Kac and Simon) that the spectrum of the almost Mathieu operator is a Cantor set for all non-zero values of the coupling and all irrational frequencies.

For almost Mathieu operator $(H_{\lambda,\alpha,\theta}u)_n=u_{n+1}+u_{n-1}+2\lambda \cos2\pi(\theta+n\alpha)u_n$, the dry version of Ten Martini problem predicts that the spectrum $\Sigma_{\lambda,\alpha}$ of $ H_{\lambda,\alpha,\theta}$…

In this paper we use results on reducibility, localization and duality for the Almost Mathieu operator, \[ (H_{b,\phi} x)_n= x_{n+1} +x_{n-1} + b \cos(2 \pi n \omega + \phi)x_n \] on $l^2(\mathbb{Z})$ and its associated eigenvalue equation…

It is shown that for any irrational rotation number and any admissible gap labelling number the almost Mathieu operator (also known as Harper's operator) has a gap in its spectrum with that labelling number. This answers the strong version…

We solve the ten martini problem (Cantor spectrum with no condition on irrational frequencies, previously only established for the almost Mathieu) for a large class of one-frequency quasiperiodic operators, including nonperturbative…

We show that the integrated density of states of the almost Mathieu operator is absolutely continuous if and only if the coupling is non-critical. We deduce for subcritical coupling that the spectrum is purely absolutely continuous for…

We present a review of the work L. Raymond from 1995. The review aims at making this work more accessible and offers adaptations of some statements and proofs. In addition, this review forms an applicable framework for the complete solution…

We prove that the spectrum of the almost Mathieu operator is absolutely continuous if and only if the coupling is subcritical. This settles Problem 6 of Barry Simon's list of Schr\"odinger operator problems for the twenty-first century.

We develop a quantitative version of Aubry duality and use it to obtain several sharp estimates for the dynamics of Schr\"odinger cocycles associated to a non-perturbatively small analytic potential and Diophantine frequency. In particular,…

We prove absolute continuity of the integrated density of states for frequency-independent analytic perturbations of the non-critical almost Mathieu operator under arithmetic conditions on frequency.

We consider the discrete versions of the well known Borg theorem and use simple linear algebraic techniques to obtain new versions of the discrete Borg type theorems. To be precise, we prove that the periodic potential of a discrete…

For the almost Mathieu operator with a small coupling constant, for a series of spectral gaps, we describe the asymptotic locations of the gaps and get lower bounds for their lengths. The results are obtained by analysing a monodromy…
