We consider the Schr\"odinger operator in the plane with delta-potential supported by a curve. For the cases of an infinite curve and a finite loop we give estimates on the lower bound of the spectrum expressed explicitly through the…
In this paper we continue the study of the spectral gap of Schr\"odinger operators on large intervals and subject to Neumann boundary conditions. The main goal is to derive a lower bound on the spectral gap which is polynomial in the…
For Schr\"odinger operators on an interval with either convex or symmetric single-well potentials, and Robin or Neumann boundary conditions, the gap between the two lowest eigenvalues is minimised when the potential is constant. We also…
We develop a general approach to study three-dimensional Schroedinger operators with confining potentials depending on the distance to a surface. The main idea is to apply parallel coordinates based on the surface but outside its cut locus…

We study the Schr\"odinger operator with a potential given by the sum of the potentials for harmonic oscillator and imaginary cubic oscillator and we focus on its pseudospectral properties. A summary of known results about the operator and…

The discrete one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operator is studied in the finite interval of length $N=2 M$ with the Dirichlet boundary conditions and an arbitrary potential even with respect to the spacial reflections. It is shown, that the…
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 $\lambda\ge 0$. We show that there is a critical value of $\lambda$ such that the spectrum for…
For a second order operator on a compact manifold satisfying the strong H\"ormander condition, we give a bound for the spectral gap analogous to the Lichnerowicz estimate for the Laplacian of a Riemannian manifold. We consider a wide class…
We consider the Schr\"odinger operator $$-\frac{d^2}{d x^2} + V \qquad \mbox{on an interval}~~[a,b]~\mbox{with Dirichlet boundary conditions},$$ where $V$ is bounded from below and prove a lower bound on the first eigenvalue $\lambda_1$ in…
Spectral components of one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operator with complex potential are investigated. An effective upper bound for the total number of eigenvalues and spectral singularities is established. For dissipative Schr\"odinger…
We establish quantitative upper and lower bounds for Schr\"odinger operators with complex potentials that satisfy some weak form of sparsity. Our first result is a quantitative version of an example, due to S.\ Boegli (Comm. Math. Phys.,…
We prove and apply two theorems: First, a quantitative, scale-free unique continuation estimate for functions in a spectral subspace of a Schr\"odinger operator on a bounded or unbounded domain, second, a perturbation and lifting estimate…
We show that the spectrum of a discrete two-dimensional periodic Schr\"odinger operator on a square lattice with a sufficiently small potential is an interval, provided the period is odd in at least one dimension. In general, we show that…
Commutator relations are used to investigate the spectra of Schr\"odinger Hamiltonians, $H = -\Delta + V({x}),$ acting on functions of a smooth, compact $d$-dimensional manifold $M$ immersed in $\bbr^{\nu}, \nu \geq d+1$. Here $\Delta$…
We consider the spectrum of a Schroedinger operator in a multi-dimensional cylinder perturbed by a shrinking potential. We study the phenomenon of a new eigenvalue emerging from the threshold of the essential spectrum and give the…
We prove sharp lower bounds on the spectral gap of 1-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators with Robin boundary conditions for each value of the Robin parameter. In particular, our lower bounds apply to single-well potentials with a centered…
We prove the uniform lower bound for the difference $\lambda_2 - \lambda_1$ between first two eigenvalues of the fractional Schr\"odinger operator, which is related to the Feynman-Kac semigroup of the symmetric $\alpha$-stable process…
