We proved that Schr\"odinger operators with unbounded potentials $(H_{\alpha,\theta}u)_n=u_{n+1}+u_{n-1}+ \frac{g(\theta+n\alpha)}{f(\theta+n\alpha)} u_n$ have purely singular continuous spectrum on the set $\{E:…
The structure of the spectrum of random operators is studied. It is shown that if the density of states measure of some subsets of the spectrum is zero, then these subsets are empty. In particular follows that absolute continuity of the IDS…
Methods from scattering theory are introduced to analyze random Schroedinger operators in one dimension by applying a volume cutoff to the potential. The key ingredient is the Lifshitz-Krein spectral shift function, which is related to the…

We survey some aspects of the theory of the integrated density of states (IDS) of random Schroedinger operators. The first part motivates the problem and introduces the relevant models as well as quantities of interest. The proof of the…
We consider the Schr\"odinger operator with a periodic potential on quasi-1D models of armchair single-wall nanotubes. The spectrum of this operator consists of an absolutely continuous part (intervals separated by gaps) plus an infinite…
The threshold behaviour of negative eigenvalues for Schr\"{o}dinger operators of the type $$ H_\lambda=-\frac{d^2}{dx^2}+U(x)+\lambda\alpha_\lambda V(\alpha_\lambda x) $$ is considered. The potentials $U$ and $V$ are real-valued bounded…
We consider a family of multi-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators $-\Delta+t V$ with a real $t$. The potential $V$ in our model decays at infinity in a special way, so that it satisfies a certain integral condition. We prove that the…
We consider Schr\"odinger operators $H^h = (ih d+{\bf A})^* (ih d+{\bf A})$ with the periodic magnetic field ${\bf B}=d{\bf A}$ on covering spaces of compact manifolds. Under some assumptions on $\bf B$, we prove that there are arbitrarily…
This note points out some bounds for the number of negative eigenvalues of Schroedinger operators with Hardy-type potentials, which follow from a simple coordinate transformation, and could prove useful in a spectral analysis of certain…
Let H be a Schr\"odinger operator defined on an unbounded domain D in R^d with Dirichlet boundary conditions (D may equal R^d in particular). Let u(x,E) be a solution of the Schr\"odinger equation (H-E)u(x,E)=0, and let B_R denote a ball of…
We study the semi-classical behavior of the spectral function of the Schr\"{o}dinger operator with short range potential. We prove that the spectral function is a semi-classical Fourier integral operator quantizing the forward and backward…
This note is devoted to optimal spectral estimates for Schr\"odinger operators on compact connected Riemannian manifolds without boundary. These estimates are based on the use of appropriate interpolation inequalities and on some recent…
We develop a new scheme of proofs for spectral theory of the $N$-body Schr\"odinger operators, reproducing and extending a series of sharp results under minimum conditions. Our main results include Rellich's theorem, limiting absorption…
We consider the Schr\"odinger operator $H_{\eta W} = -\Delta + \eta W$, self-adjoint in $L^2({\mathbb R}^d)$, $d \geq 1$. Here $\eta$ is a non constant almost periodic function, while $W$ decays slowly and regularly at infinity. We study…
We study discrete spectral quantities associated to Schr\"odinger operators of the form $-\Delta_{\mathbb{R}^d}+V_N$, $d$ odd. The potential $V_N$ models a highly disordered crystal; it varies randomly at scale $N^{-1} \ll 1$. We use…
We analyze two-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators with the potential $|xy|^p - \lambda (x^2+y^2)^{p/(p+2)}$ where $p\ge 1$ and $\lambda\ge 0$, which exhibit an abrupt change of its spectral properties at a critical value of the coupling…
We study the effect of non-negative potentials on the spectral gap of one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators in the limit of large intervals. In particular, we derive upper and lower bounds on the gap for different classes of potentials…
