Band theory provides the foundation for understanding electronic structure in crystalline materials, but its reliance on exact translational symmetry limits its applicability to systems with defects, disorder, incommensurate modulations, or…
We analyze spectral properties of a family of self-adjoint first-order finite difference operators acting on $\ell^2(\mathbb{Z}; \mathbb{C}^2)$ or $\ell^2(\mathbb{Z}_+; \mathbb{C}^2)$. Applying the conjugate operator method, we prove the…
We present a method, based on commutator methods, for the spectral analysis of uniquely ergodic dynamical systems. When applicable, it leads to the absolute continuity of the spectrum of the corresponding unitary operators. As an…
We determine exact exponential asymptotics of eigenfunctions and of corresponding transfer matrices of the almost Mathieu operators for all frequencies in the localization regime. This uncovers a universal structure in their behavior,…
In this paper, we study infinite dimensional stochastic systems having both unbounded control and observation operators. First of all, using a semigroup approach, we give another take of the well-posedness of such systems treated in [SIAM…
We develop a "local theory" of multidimensional quasiperiodic $\SL(2,\R)$ cocycles which are not homotopic to a constant. It describes a $C^1$-open neighborhood of cocycles of rotations and applies irrespective of arithmetic conditions on…
In this paper, we study the multi-frequency quasi-periodic operator with a Gevrey type perturbation. We first establish the large deviation theorem (LDT) for the multi-dimensional operator with a sub-exponential (or Gevrey) long-range…
We consider standard subordinacy theory for general Sturm--Liouville operators and give criteria when boundedness of solutions implies that no subordinate solutions exist. As applications, we prove a Weidmann-type result for general…
We study finitely cyclic self-adjoint operators in a Hilbert space, i.e. self-adjoint operators that posses such a finite subset in the domain that the orbits of all its elements with respect to the operator are linearly dense in the space.…
Let $H_0$, $H$ be a pair of self-adjoint operators for which the standard assumptions of the smooth version of scattering theory hold true. We give an explicit description of the absolutely continuous spectrum of the operator…
The spectra of parallel flows (that is, flows governed by first-order differential operators parallel to one direction) are investigated, on both $L^2$ spaces and weighted-$L^2$ spaces. As a consequence, an example of a flow admitting a…
Classical spectral theory gives a complete description of a single normal operator, but it fails for noncommuting operators, where no canonical joint spectrum or simultaneous diagonalization exists. Existing approaches provide only partial…
The spectral analysis of the unitary monodromy operator, associated with a time-periodically (paramatrically) forced Schrodinger equation, is a question of longstanding interest. Here, we consider this question for Hamiltonians of the form…
We consider homoclinic solutions for Hamiltonian systems in symplectic Hilbert spaces and generalise spectral flow formulas that were proved by Pejsachowicz and the author in finite dimensions some years ago. Roughly speaking, our main…
We consider the topological relation behind the spectral behavior of a linear operator that arises in the stability problem of traveling waves on a large bounded domain. When the domain size tends to infinity, the absolute and asymptotic…
The aim of this paper is to offer an original and comprehensive spectral theoretical approach to the study of convergence to equilibrium, and in particular of the hypocoercivity phenomenon, for contraction semigroups in Hilbert spaces. Our…
The authors study the spectral theory of self-adjoint operators that are subject to certain types of perturbations. An iterative introduction of infinitely many randomly coupled rank-one perturbations is one of our settings. Spectral…
We establish a quantitative version of strong almost reducibility result for $\mathrm{sl}(2,\mathbb{R})$ quasi-periodic cocycle close to a constant in Gevrey class. We prove that, for the quasi-periodic Schr\"odinger operators with small…
We explore to what extent the relation between the absolute continuous spectrum and non-existence of subordinate generalized eigenvectors, known for scalar Jacobi operators, can be formulated also for block Jacobi operators with…
