We consider Sch\"odinger operators on the half-line, both discrete and continuous, and show that the absence of bound states implies the absence of embedded singular spectrum. More precisely, in the discrete case we prove that if $\Delta +…

We study Schr\"odinger operators on $L^2(E;m)$ of the form $-A+V$ with singular potentials $V$. We address the question posed by H. Brezis about the structure of the set $\{u=0\}$ for non-negative supersolutions to $-Au+Vu=0$. The class of…

We show that whole-line Schr\"odinger operators with finitely many bound states have no embedded singular spectrum. In contradistinction, we show that embedded singular spectrum is possible even when the bound states approach the essential…

We consider Schr\"odinger operators $H=- \d^2/\d r^2+V$ on $L^2([0,\infty))$ with the Dirichlet boundary condition. The potential $V$ may be local or non-local, with polynomial decay at infinity. The point zero in the spectrum of $H$ is…

Parallel to the study of finite dimensional Banach spaces, there is a growing interest in the corresponding local theory of operator spaces. We define a family of Hilbertian operator spaces H_n^k,0< k < n+1, generalizing the row and column…

For an operator $A:= A_h= A^0(hD) + V(x,hD)$ with a "potential" $V$ decaying as $|x|\to \infty$ we establish under certain assumptions the complete and differentiable with respect to $\tau$ asymptotics of $e_h(x,x,\tau)$ where…

The Hardy space H^2(R) for the upper half plane together with a unimodular function group representation u(\lambda) = \exp(i(\lambda_1\psi_1 + ... + \lambda_n\psi_n)) for \lambda in R^n, gives rise to a manifold M of orthogonal projections…
