In this paper, we give an easy proof of the main results of Andrews and Clutterbuck's paper [J. Amer. Math. Soc. 24 (2011), no. 3, 899--916], which gives both a sharp lower bound for the spectral gap of a Schr\"oinger operator and a sharp…

Of the two main objectives we pursue in this paper, the first one consists in the studying operators of the form $(\partial_t-i\triangle_{\Gamma})^{\alpha},\,\,\alpha=1/2,-1/2,-1,\ldots,$ where $\triangle_{\Gamma}$ is the Laplace-Beltrami…

In this note we elaborate on the asymptotic behavior of the spectral gap of a class of discrete Schr\"odinger operators defined on a path graph in the limit of infinite volume. We confirm recent results and generalize them to a larger class…

For Schr\"odinger operators on an interval with either convex or symmetric single-well potentials, and Robin or Neumann boundary conditions, the gap between the two lowest eigenvalues is minimised when the potential is constant. We also…

Commutator relations are used to investigate the spectra of Schr\"odinger Hamiltonians, $H = -\Delta + V({x}),$ acting on functions of a smooth, compact $d$-dimensional manifold $M$ immersed in $\bbr^{\nu}, \nu \geq d+1$. Here $\Delta$…
