The spectrum of complex PT-symmetric potential, $V(x)=igx$, is known to be null. We enclose this potential in a hard-box: $V(|x| \ge 1) =\infty $ and in a soft-box: $V(|x|\ge 1)=0$. In the former case, we find real discrete spectrum and the…
We derive asymptotic expansion for the spectrum of Hamiltonians with a strong attractive $\delta'$ interaction supported by a smooth surface in $\R^3$, either infinite and asymptotically planar, or compact and closed. Its second term is…
We study two body dipolar scattering with one dimension of confinement. We include the effects of confinement by expanding this degree of freedom in harmonic oscillator states. We then study the properties of the resulting multi-channel…
We consider the Schr\"odinger operator $H_{\eta W} = -\Delta + \eta W$, self-adjoint in $L^2({\mathbb R}^d)$, $d \geq 1$. Here $\eta$ is a non constant almost periodic function, while $W$ decays slowly and regularly at infinity. We study…
We derive a generalized zero-range pseudopotential applicable to all partial wave solutions to the Schroedinger equation based on a delta-shell potential in the limit that the shell radius approaches zero. This properly models all higher…
Bound states of the Hamiltonian describing a quantum particle living on three dimensional straight strip of width $d$ are investigated. We impose the Neumann boundary condition on the two concentric windows of the radii $a$ and $ b$ located…

We consider semiclassical self-adjoint operators whose symbol, defined on a two-dimensional symplectic manifold, reaches a non-degenerate minimum $b_0$ on a closed curve. We derive a classical and quantum normal form which allows us, in…
We consider a planar waveguide with combined Dirichlet and Neumann conditions imposed in a "twisted" way. We study the discrete spectrum and describe it dependence on the configuration of the boundary conditions. In particular, we show that…
The discrete one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operator is studied in the finite interval of length $N=2 M$ with the Dirichlet boundary conditions and an arbitrary potential even with respect to the spacial reflections. It is shown, that the…
We study Schr\"odinger operators on $\mathbb R^3$ with finitely many concentric spherical $\delta$-shell interactions. The operators are defined by the quadratic form method and are described by continuity across each shell together with…
We study the nature of the essential spectrum of the Dirichlet Laplacian in tubes about infinite curves embedded in Euclidean spaces. Under suitable assumptions about the decay of curvatures at infinity, we prove the absence of singular…
We investigate the asymptotic properties of inertial modes confined in a spherical shell when viscosity tends to zero. We first consider the mapping made by the characteristics of the hyperbolic equation (Poincar\'e's equation) satisfied by…
We consider Schr\"odinger operators in $L^2(\mathbb{R}^3)$ with a singular interaction supported by a finite curve $\Gamma$. We present a proper definition of the operators and study their properties, in particular, we show that the…
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…
We study the spectrum of a one-dimensional Dirac operator pencil, with a coupling constant in front of the potential considered as the spectral parameter. Motivated by recent investigations of graphene waveguides, we focus on the values of…

We investigate the discrete spectrum of the Hamiltonian describing a quantum particle living in the two-dimensional curved strip. We impose the Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions on opposite sides of the strip. The existence of the…
We describe the spectrum of a non-self-adjoint elliptic system on a finite interval. Under certain conditions we find that the eigenvalues form a discrete set and converge asymptotically at infinity to one of several straight lines. The…
We provide a precise description of the bottom of the spectrum in the semiclassical limit of a harmonic-type Schr\"odinger operator with an inverse square potential. By exploiting the connection between the eigenfunctions of these operators…
