We review the Johnson-Moser rotation number and the $K_0$-theoretical gap labelling of Bellissard for one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators. We compare them with two further gap-labels, one being related to the motion of Dirichlet…
In this survey, we give an introduction to and proof of the gap labelling theorem for discrete one-dimensional ergodic Schr\"odinger operators via the Schwartzman homomorphism. To keep the paper relatively self-contained, we include…
We consider one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators with generalized almost periodic potentials with jump discontinuities and $\delta$-interactions. For operators of this kind we introduce a rotation number in the spirit of Johnson and…
We discuss gap labelling for operators generated by the full shift over a compact subset of the real line. The set of Johnson--Schwartzman gap labels is the algebra generated by weights of clopen subsets of the support of the single-site…
We consider Sturm-Liouville operators with measure-valued weight and potential, and positive, bounded diffusion coefficient which is bounded away from zero. By means of a local periodicity condition, which can be seen as a quantitative…
We consider transfer operators for topological Markov shift (TMS) with countable states and with holes which are $2$-cylinders. As main results, if the closed system of the shift has finitely irreducible transition matrix and the potential…
Sturm-Liouville oscillation theory is studied for Jacobi operators with block entries given by covariant operators on an infinite dimensional Hilbert space. It is shown that the integrated density of states of the Jacobi operator is…
Let $\Gamma$ be geometric tree graph with $m$ edges and consider the second order Sturm-Liouville operator $\L[u]=(-pu')'+qu$ acting on functions that are continuous on all of $\Gamma$, and twice continuously differentiable in the interior…
We extend relative oscillation theory to the case of Sturm--Liouville operators $H u = r^{-1}(-(pu')'+q u)$ with different $p$'s. We show that the weighted number of zeros of Wronskians of certain solutions equals the value of Krein's…
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 consider Schr\"odinger operators with dynamically defined potentials arising from continuous sampling along orbits of strictly ergodic transformations. The Gap Labeling Theorem states that the possible gaps in the spectrum can be…
In the present paper, we investigate the fractional analog of the Sturm-Liouville problem on a metric graph using a combination of left Riemann-Liouville and right Caputo fractional derivatives. This combination creates a symmetric and…
We propose a correspondence between loop operators in a family of four dimensional N=2 gauge theories on S^4 -- including Wilson, 't Hooft and dyonic operators -- and Liouville theory loop operators on a Riemann surface. This extends the…
We initiate an approach to simultaneously treat numerators and denominators of Green's functions arising from quasi-periodic Schr\"odinger operators, which in particular allows us to study completely resonant phases of the almost Mathieu…
We develop an analog of classical oscillation theory for Sturm-Liouville operators which, rather than measuring the spectrum of one single operator, measures the difference between the spectra of two different operators. This is done by…
We prove that the size of the spectral gaps of weakly coupled quasi-periodic Schr\"odinger operators with Liouville frequencies decays exponentially. As an application, we obtain the homogeneity of the spectrum.
We give a proof of the Gap Labeling Conjecture formulated by J. Bellissard. This gives information about the spectrum of a Schrodinger operator associated to a quasicrystal. The proof makes use of a version of Connes' Index Theorem for…
In a finite-dimensional Euclidian space we consider a connected metric graph with the following property: each two cycles can have at most one common point. Such graphs are called A-graphs. On noncompact A-graph we consider a scattering…
This largely pedagogical paper recalls some facts on defect numbers of products of closed operators employing results from the theory of semi-Fredholm operators and then applies these facts to positive integer powers of symmetric operators…
In this paper, the Sturm-Liouville operators on a graph with a cycle are considered. We study the inverse spectral problem, which consists in the recovery of the potentials from several spectra and a sequence of signs related to the…
