In the paper we study the behaviour of the lengths of spectral gaps $\{\gamma_{q}(n)\}_{n\in \mathbb{N}}$ in a continuous spectrum of the Hill-Schr\"{o}dinger operators $$S(q)u=-u"+q(x)u,\quad x\in\mathbb{R},$$ with 1-periodic real-valued…
Based on a thorough numerical analysis of the spectrum of Harper's operator, which describes, e.g., an electron on a two-dimensional lattice subjected to a magnetic field perpendicular to the lattice plane, we make the following conjecture:…
We prove a sharp upper bound on convex domains, in terms of the diameter alone, of the best constant in a class of weighted Poincar\'e inequalities. The key point is the study of an optimal weighted Wirtinger inequality.
We characterize the spectrum (and its parts) of operators which can be represented as G=A+BC for a simpler operator A and a structured perturbation BC. The interest in this kind of perturbations is motivated, e.g., by perturbations of the…
Scattering amplitudes in quantum field theory are independent of the field parameterization, which has a natural geometric interpretation as a form of `coordinate invariance.' Amplitudes can be expressed in terms of Riemannian curvature…
We study different operator radii of homomorphisms from an operator algebra into $B(H)$ and show that these can be computed explicitly in terms of the usual norm. As an application, we show that if $\Omega$ is a $K$-spectral set for a…
The numerical range of a bounded, linear operator on a Hilbert space is a set in $\mathbb{C}$ that encodes important information about the operator. In this survey paper, we first consider numerical ranges of matrices and discuss several…
The numerical range of a matrix is studied geometrically via the cone of positive semidefinite matrices (or semidefinite cone for short). In particular it is shown that the feasible set of a two-dimensional linear matrix inequality (LMI),…

We study the spectrum of unbounded J-self-adjoint block operator matrices. In particular, we prove enclosures for the spectrum, provide a sufficient condition for the spectrum being real and derive variational principles for certain real…
Let (SD_\Omega) be the Stokes operator defined in a bounded domain \Omega of R^3 with Dirichlet boundary conditions. We prove that, generically with respect to the domain \Omega with C^5 boundary, the spectrum of (SD_\Omega) satisfies a non…
We investigate spectral properties of quantum graphs in the form of a periodic chain of rings with a connecting link between each adjacent pair, assuming that wave functions at the vertices are matched through conditions manifestly…
We construct spectral triples on C*-algebraic extensions of unital C*-algebras by stable ideals satisfying a certain Toeplitz type property using given spectral triples on the quotient and ideal. Our construction behaves well with respect…
This paper focuses on the spectral properties of a bounded self-adjoint operator in $L_2(\mathds R^d)$ being the sum of a convolution operator with an integrable convolution kernel and an operator of multiplication by a continuous potential…
This paper is partly a report on current knowledge concerning the structure of (generic) quantized coordinate rings and their prime spectra, and partly propaganda in support of the conjecture that since these algebras share many common…
Let $X$ be a smooth irreducible projective variety over a field $\mathbf{k}$ of dimension $d.$ Let $\tau: \mathbb{Q}_l\to \mathbb{C}$ be any field embedding. Let $f: X\to X$ be a surjective endomorphism. We show that for every…
By means of the operator extension theory, we construct an explicitly solvable model of a simple-cubic three-dimensional regimented array of quantum dots in the presence of a uniform magnetic field. The spectral properties of the model are…
We consider the problem of finding universal bounds of "isoperimetric" or "isodiametric" type on the spectral gap of the Laplacian on a metric graph with natural boundary conditions at the vertices, in terms of various analytical and…
For quotients of the $n+1$-dimensional hyperbolic space by a convex co-compact group $\Gamma$, we obtain a formula relating the renormalized trace of the wave operator with the resonances of the Laplacian and some conformal invariants of…
The parametric geometry of numbers of Schmidt and Summerer deals with rational approximation to points in $\mathbb{R}^n$. We extend this theory to a number field $K$ and its completion $K_w$ at a place $w$ in order to treat approximation…
