In the present paper, we give a proof of the gap-labelling conjecture for quasi-crystals. The main tools are the measured index theorem for laminations and a naturality of the longitudinal Chern character.
In this survey, we give an introduction to and proof of the gap labelling theorem for discrete one-dimensional ergodic Schr\"odinger operators via the Schwartzman homomorphism. To keep the paper relatively self-contained, we include…
We study the connection between Gabor frames for quasicrystals, the topology of the hull of a quasicrystal $\Lambda,$ and the $K$-theory of the twisted groupoid $C^*$-algebra $\mathcal{A}_\sigma$ arising from a quasicrystal. In particular,…
We consider Schr\"odinger operators with dynamically defined potentials arising from continuous sampling along orbits of strictly ergodic transformations. The Gap Labeling Theorem states that the possible gaps in the spectrum can be…
For a large class of tilings, including those which are obtained by the generalized dual method from regular grids, it is shown that their algebra is stably isomorphic to a crossed product with $\Z^d$. Penrose tilings belong to this class.…
A discrete analogue of a Schrodinger type operator proposed by J. Bellissard has a singular continuous spectrum. In this remark we answer the conjecture formulated by D. Bessis, M. Mehta and P. Moussa on the coefficients of that operator.…
We review the Johnson-Moser rotation number and the $K_0$-theoretical gap labelling of Bellissard for one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators. We compare them with two further gap-labels, one being related to the motion of Dirichlet…
Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^n$ be a strictly convex domain with smooth boundary and diameter $D$. The fundamental gap conjecture claims that if $V:\bar\Omega\to\mathbb{R}$ is convex, then the spectral gap of the Schr\"odinger operator…
In the following we are interested in the spectral gaps of discrete quasiperiodic Schr\"odinger operators when the frequency is Diophantine, the potential is analytic, and in the subcritical regime. The gap-labelling theorem asserts in this…
We discuss gap labelling for operators generated by the full shift over a compact subset of the real line. The set of Johnson--Schwartzman gap labels is the algebra generated by weights of clopen subsets of the support of the single-site…
In this paper, we introduce a rotation number for almost periodic Sturm-Liouville operators in the spirit of Johnson and Moser. We then prove the gap labelling theorem in terms of rotation numbers for the operator in question. To do this,…
We consider two-sided Jacobi matrices whose coefficients are obtained by continuous sampling along the orbits of a homeomorphim of a compact metric space. Given an ergodic probability measure, we study the topological structure of the…
We analyze under which conditions the missing label problem associated to a reduction chain $\frak{s}^{\prime}\subset \frak{s}$ of (simple) Lie algebras can be completely solved by means of an In\"on\"u-Wigner contraction $\frak{g}$…
J.C.Lagarias (2000) conjectured that if $\mu$ is a complex measure on p-dimensional Euclidean space with a uniformly discrete support and its spectrum (Fourier transform) is also a measure with a uniformly discrete support, then the support…
We present an index theorem for certain hypoelliptic differential operators on foliated manifolds. Our proof is a development of Alain Connes tangent groupoid proof of the Atiyah-Singer index theorem. The paper is largely self-contained.
We prove Steinebrunner's conjecture on the biequivalence between (colored) properads and labelled cospan categories. The main part of the work is to establish a 1-categorical, strict version of the conjecture, showing that the category of…
We study the cohomology rings of tiling spaces $\Omega$ given by cubical substitutions. While there have been many calculations before of cohomology groups of such tiling spaces, the innovation here is that we use computer-assisted methods…
We study Schr\"odinger operators on metric and discrete decorated graphs. The values taken by the integrated density of states (IDS) on spectral gaps are called gap labels. A natural question is which gap labels can occur. We answer this…
In an earlier paper, we established a natural connection between the Baum-Connes conjecture and noncommutative Bloch theory, viz. the spectral theory of projectively periodic elliptic operators on covering spaces. We elaborate on this…
To a given tiling a non commutative space and the corresponding C*-algebra are constructed. This includes the definition of a topology on the groupoid induced by translations of the tiling. The algebra is also the algebra of observables for…
