In this expository paper we answer two fundamental questions concerning discrete magnetic Schr\"odinger operator associated with weighted graphs. We discuss when formal expressions of such operators give rise to self-adjoint operators,…

We consider the discrete one-dimensional Schr\"{o}dinger operator $H=H_0+V$, where $(H_0x)[n]=-(x[n+1]+x[n-1]-2x[n])$ and $V$ is a self-adjoint operator on $\ell^2(\mathbb{Z})$ with a decay property given by $V$ extending to a compact…

Under the assumption that $V \in L^2([0,\pi]; dx)$, we derive necessary and sufficient conditions for (non-self-adjoint) Schr\"odinger operators $-d^2/dx^2+V$ in $L^2([0,\pi]; dx)$ with periodic and antiperiodic boundary conditions to…

We consider linear spectral-meromorphic (s-meromorphic) OD operators at the real axis such that all local solutions to the eigenvalue problems are meromorphic for all $\lambda$. By definition, rank one algebro-geometrical operator $L$ admit…

Let $H$ be a Schr\"odinger operator defined on a noncompact Riemannian manifold $\Omega$, and let $W\in L^\infty(\Omega;\mathbb{R})$. Suppose that the operator $H+W$ is critical in $\Omega$, and let $\varphi$ be the corresponding Agmon…

If a differential operator $D$ on a smooth Hermitian vector bundle $S$ over a compact manifold $M$ is symmetric, it is essentially self-adjoint and so admits the use of functional calculus. If $D$ is also elliptic, then the Hilbert space of…

We prove essential self-adjointness of Dirac operators with Lorentz scalar potentials which grow sufficiently fast near the boundary $\partial\Omega$ of the spatial domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^d$. On the way, we first consider general…

Consider a complete, connected, smooth, oriented Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ with boundary, such that the first Betti number vanishes. Sol Schwartzman proved that for Schr\"odinger operators of the form $-\Delta_g + V$ where $\Im(V)$ is…

Given a densely defined and closed operator $A$ acting on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, we establish a one-to-one correspondence between its closed extensions and subspaces $\mathfrak{M}\subset\mathcal{D}(A^*)$, that are closed…

We consider the Schrodinger operator a given domain. Our goal is to study some optimization problems where an optimal (non-negative) potential V has to be determined in some suitable admissible classes and for some suitable optimization…

We consider a magnetic Schr\"odinger operator $H^h$, depending on the semiclassical parameter $h>0$, on a two-dimensional Riemannian manifold. We assume that there is no electric field. We suppose that the minimal value $b_0$ of the…

In this paper we prove some new results and give new proofs of known results related to the large coupling limit for stationary Schr\"odinger operators. The operators we consider are of the form $-\Delta +\lambda V(x)$ where $\Delta$ is the…

We establish inequalities for the eigenvalues of Schr\"odinger operators on compact submanifolds (possibly with nonempty boundary) of Euclidean spaces, of spheres, and of real, complex and quaternionic projective spaces, which are related…

Negative-index metamaterials possess a negative refractive index and thus present an interesting substance for designing uncommon optical effects such as invisibility cloaking. This paper deals with operators encountered in an…

Let $H_V=-\Delta +V$ be a Schr\"odinger operator on an arbitrary open set $\Omega$ of $\mathbb R^d$, where $d \geq 3$, and $\Delta$ is the Dirichlet Laplacian and the potential $V$ belongs to the Kato class on $\Omega$. The purpose of this…

The behaviour of the spectral edges (embedded eigenvalues and resonances) is discussed at the two ends of the continuous spectrum of non-local discrete Schr\"odinger operators with a $\delta$-potential. These operators arise by replacing…

We establish new connections between integral curvature bounds and the Euler characteristic of closed Riemannian manifolds through the perspective of Schr\"odinger-type operators. Central to our approach is the twisted Dirac operator…

The eigenvalues of a self-adjoint nxn matrix A can be put into a decreasing sequence $\lambda=(\lambda_1,...,\lambda_n)$, with repetitions according to multiplicity, and the diagonal of A is a point of $R^n$ that bears some relation to…

For relatively form-compact perturbations of non-negative selfadjoint operators, we obtain an upper bound on the number of discrete eigenvalues in half-planes separated from the positive real axis. The bound is given in terms of a partial…

In this paper we consider the vector-valued Schr\"{o}dinger operator $-\Delta + V$, where the potential term $V$ is a matrix-valued function whose entries belong to $L^1_{\rm loc}(\mathbb{R}^d)$ and, for every $x\in\mathbb{R}^d$, $V(x)$ is…
