This article is a continuation of arXiv:2401.14977. We study the concentration properties of spectral projectors on manifolds, in connection with the uncertainty principle. In arXiv:2401.14977, the second author proved an optimal…

We introduce a self-consistent theoretical framework associated with the Schwinger unitary operators whose basic mathematical rules embrace a new uncertainty principle that generalizes and strengthens the Massar-Spindel inequality. Among…

We approach uncertainty principles of Cowling-Price-Heis-\\enberg-type as a variational principle on modulation spaces. In our discussion we are naturally led to compact localization operators with symbols in modulation spaces. The optimal…

We consider the problem of existence of polynomials with small norm. This range of problems has been extensively studied by many authors in the case of the unit circle (or a compact Abelian group), i.e. when the characters are bounded. In…

We show various uncertainty principles for the Fourier transform on harmonic manifolds of rank one. In particular, we derive a Heisenberg uncertainty principle, a Morgen theorem, an uncertainty principle for the Schr\"odinger equation and a…

On a fairly general class of Riemannian manifolds M, we prove lower estimates in terms of the Ricci curvature for the spectral bound (when M has infinite volume) and for the spectral gap (when M has finite volume) for the Laplace-Beltrami…

We consider the quantum completeness problem, i.e. the problem of confining quantum particles, on a non-complete Riemannian manifold $M$ equipped with a smooth measure $\omega$, possibly degenerate or singular near the metric boundary of…

We exploit an identity for the gradients of Laplacian eigenfunctions on compact homogeneous Riemannian manifolds with irreducible linear isotropy group to obtain asymptotically sharp universal eigenvalue inequalities and sharp Weyl bounds…

We investigate properties of the covariance matrix in the framework of non-commutative quantum mechanics for an one-parameter family of transformations between the familiar Heisenberg-Weyl algebra and a particular extension of it. Employing…

We prove a quantitative uncertainty principle at low energies for the Laplacian on fairly general weighted graphs with a uniform explicit control of the constants in terms of geometric quantities. A major step consists in establishing lower…

Simultaneous measurements of position and momentum are considered in $n$ dimensions. We find, that for a particle whose position is strictly localized in a compact domain $D\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ (spatial uncertainty) with non-empty…

On a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary, we prove a spectral inequality for the bi-Laplace operator in the case of so-called "clamped" boundary conditions , that is, homogeneous Dirichlet and Neumann conditions simultaneously. We…

In this paper, we study forms of the uncertainty principle suggested by problems in control theory. We obtain a version of the classical Paneah-Logvinenko-Sereda theorem for the annulus. More precisely, we show that a function with spectrum…

We provide a sharp monotonicity theorem about the distribution of subharmonic functions on manifolds, which can be regarded as a new, measure theoretic form of the uncertainty principle. As an illustration of the scope of this result, we…

We consider the Heisenberg uncertainty principle of position and momentum in 3-dimensional spaces of constant curvature $K$. The uncertainty of position is defined coordinate independent by the geodesic radius of spherical domains in which…

Motivated by considerations of euclidean quantum gravity, we investigate a central question of spectral geometry, namely the question of reconstructability of compact Riemannian manifolds from the spectra of their Laplace operators. To this…

We study spectral properties of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on two relevant almost-Riemannian manifolds, namely the Grushin structures on the cylinder and on the sphere. This operator contains first order diverging terms caused by the…

This is mostly a survey paper, where we collect results concerning the spectral bounds of deterministic and random Schr\"odinger operators with complex potentials, both on \(\mathbb{R}^d\) and on compact manifolds. The survey part is…

Let $G $ be a noncompact semisimple Lie group with finite centre. Let $X=G/K$ be the associated Riemannian symmetric space and assume that $X$ is of rank one. The spectral projections associated to the Laplace-Beltrami operator are given by…

We establish criteria for the stability of the essential spectrum for unbounded operators acting in Banach modules. The applications cover operators acting on sections of vector fiber bundles over non-smooth manifolds or locally compact…
