We prove $t^{- \frac 14}-$decay for the solutions of the 1-dim Schrodinger equation with a one-gap periodic potential as $t \to +\infty $. Generically, one has $t^{- \frac 13}$-decay and this decay is optimal. Our approach is to analyze the…
We discuss Schr\"odinger operators on a half-line with decaying oscillatory potentials, such as products of an almost periodic function and a decaying function. We provide sufficient conditions for preservation of absolutely continuous…
In dimension $d\geq 3$, we give examples of nontrivial, compactly supported, complex-valued potentials such that the associated Schr\"odinger operators have no resonances. If $d=2$, we show that there are potentials with no resonances away…
We consider the Laplacian operator H_0 perturbed by a non-positive potential $V$, which is periodic in two directions, and decays in the remaining one. We are interested in the characterization and decay properties of the guided states,…

Starting from the semi-classical spectrum of Schr\"odinger operators $-h^2\Delta+V$ (on $\mathbb{R}^n$ or on a Riemannian manifold) it is possible to detect critical levels of the potential $V$. Via micro-local methods one can express…
Let $H=-D^2+V$ be a Schr\"odinger operator on $ L^2(\mathbb{R})$, or on $ L^2(0,\infty)$. Suppose the potential satisfies $\limsup_{x\to \infty}|xV(x)|=a<\infty$. We prove that $H$ admits no eigenvalue larger than $ \frac{4a^2}{\pi^2}$. For…
We consider a periodic self-adjoint pseudo-differential operator $H=(-\Delta)^m+B$, $m>0$, in $\R^d$ which satisfies the following conditions: (i) the symbol of $B$ is smooth in $\bx$, and (ii) the perturbation $B$ has order less than $2m$.…
Self-adjoint Schr\"odinger operators with $\delta$ and $\delta'$-potentials supported on a smooth compact hypersurface are defined explicitly via boundary conditions. The spectral properties of these operators are investigated, regularity…
Let $H=-\Delta+V$, where $V$ is a real valued potential on $\R^2$ satisfying $|V(x)|\les \la x\ra^{-3-}$. We prove that if zero is a regular point of the spectrum of $H=-\Delta+V$, then $$ \|w^{-1} e^{itH}P_{ac}f\|_{L^\infty(\R^2)}\les…
We study solutions of $-\Delta u + V u = \lambda u$ on $\mathbb{R}^n$. Such solutions localize in the `allowed' region $\left\{x \in \mathbb{R}^n: V(x) \leq \lambda\right\}$ and decay exponentially in the `forbidden' region $\left\{x \in…
I present an example of a discrete Schr"odinger operator that shows that it is possible to have embedded singular spectrum and, at the same time, discrete eigenvalues that approach the edges of the essential spectrum (much) faster than…
In this article, we prove the finiteness of the number of eigenvalues for a class of Schr\"odinger operators $H = -\Delta + V(x)$ with a complex-valued potential $V(x)$ on $\bR^n$, $n \ge 2$. If $\Im V$ is sufficiently small, $\Im V \le 0$…

We prove upper bounds on the number of resonances and eigenvalues of Schr\"odinger operators $-\Delta+V$ with complex-valued potentials, where $d\geq 3$ is odd. The novel feature of our upper bounds is that they are \emph{effective}, in the…
We study the spectral properties of Schr\"{o}dinger operators on perturbed lattices. We shall prove the non-existence or the discreteness of embedded eigenvalues, the limiting absorption principle for the resolvent, construct a spectral…
We study the spectral problems associated with the finite-difference operators $H_N = 2 \cosh(p) + V_N(x)$, where $V_N(x)$ is an arbitrary polynomial potential of degree $N$. These systems can be regarded as a solvable deformation of the…
