We study discrete Schroedinger operators $(H_{\alpha,\theta}\psi)(n)= \psi(n-1)+\psi(n+1)+f(\alpha n+\theta)\psi(n)$ on $l^2(Z)$, where $f(x)$ is a real analytic periodic function of period 1. We prove a general theorem relating the measure…

Let $ N \in \mathbb{N} $, $ N \geq 2 $, be given. Motivated by wavelet analysis, we consider a class of normal representations of the $ C^* $-algebra $ \mathfrak{A}_{N} $ on two unitary generators $ U $, $ V $ subject to the relation \[…

We study one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators $\operatorname{H} = -\partial_x^2 + V$ with unbounded complex potentials $V$ and derive asymptotic estimates for the norm of the resolvent, $\Psi(\lambda) := \| (\operatorname{H} -…

Let $A$ be a positive definite operator on a Hilbert space $H$, and $|||.|||$ be a unitarily invariant norm on $B(H)$. We show that if $f$ is an operator monotone function on $(0,\infty)$ and $n\in \mathbb{N}$, then $|||D^n…

By using the Schur test, we give some upper and lower estimates on the norm of a composition operator on $\mathcal{H}^2$, the space of Dirichlet series with square summable coefficients, for the inducing symbol $\varphi(s)=c_1+c_{q}q^{-s}$…

Let $\mathscr{H}^2$ denote the Hardy space of Dirichlet series $f(s) = \sum_{n\geq1} a_n n^{-s}$ with square summable coefficients and suppose that $\varphi$ is a symbol generating a composition operator on $\mathscr{H}^2$ by…

We develop a general theory of "almost Hadamard matrices". These are by definition the matrices $H\in M_N(\mathbb R)$ having the property that $U=H/\sqrt{N}$ is orthogonal, and is a local maximum of the 1-norm on O(N). Our study includes a…

We give estimates for the approximation numbers of composition operators on $H^2$, in terms of some modulus of continuity. For symbols whose image is contained in a polygon, we get that these approximation numbers are dominated by $\e^{- c…

In this paper we use results on reducibility, localization and duality for the Almost Mathieu operator, \[ (H_{b,\phi} x)_n= x_{n+1} +x_{n-1} + b \cos(2 \pi n \omega + \phi)x_n \] on $l^2(\mathbb{Z})$ and its associated eigenvalue equation…

We establish H\"ormander-type $L^2$-estimates for the $\overline{\partial}$-operators that hold uniformly for all nontrivial flat holomorphic line bundles on compact K\"ahler manifolds. Our result can be regarded as a…

Let $T$ be a injective bounded linear operator on a complex Hilbert space. We characterize the complex numbers $\lambda,\mu$ for which $(I+\lambda T)(I+\mu T)^{-1}$ is a contraction, the characterization being expressed in terms of the…

The paper studies a bounded symmetric operator ${\mathbf{A}}_\varepsilon$ in $L_2(\mathbf{R}^d)$ with $$ ({\mathbf{A}}_\varepsilon u) (x) = \varepsilon^{-d-2} \int_{\mathbf{R}^d} a((x-y)/\varepsilon) \mu(x/\varepsilon, y/\varepsilon) \left(…

Let $\mathbb{B}(\mathcal{H})$ be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ and let $N(\cdot)$ be a norm on $\mathbb{B}(\mathcal{H})$. For every $0\leq \nu \leq 1$, we introduce the $w_{_{(N,\nu)}}(A)$ as…

We present several operator and norm inequalities for Hilbert space operators. In particular, we prove that if $A_{1},A_{2},...,A_{n}\in {\mathbb B}({\mathscr H})$, then…

Kicked Harper operators and on-resonance double kicked rotor operators model quantum systems whose semiclassical limits exhibit chaotic dynamics. Recent computational studies indicate a striking resemblance between the spectrums of these…

We obtain new lower and upper bounds for the numerical radius of a bounded linear operator $A$ on a complex Hilbert space, which refine the existing ones. In particular, if $w(A)$ and $\|A\|$ denote the numerical radius and operator norm of…

We study higher uniformity properties of the von Mangoldt function $\Lambda$, the M\"obius function $\mu$, and the divisor functions $d_k$ on short intervals $(x,x+H]$ for almost all $x \in [X, 2X]$. Let $\Lambda^\sharp$ and $d_k^\sharp$ be…

I review a recent progress towards solution of the Almost Mathieu equation (A.G. Abanov, J.C. Talstra, P.B. Wiegmann, Nucl. Phys. B 525, 571, 1998), known also as Harper's equation or Azbel-Hofstadter problem. The spectrum of this equation…
