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…

In this paper we find a new condition on a real periodic potential for which the self-adjoint Schr\"odinger operator may be defined by a quadratic form and the spectrum of the operator is purely absolutely continuous. This is based on…

We present a result of absence of absolutely continuous spectrum in an interval of $\R$, for a matrix-valued random Schr\"odinger operator, acting on $L^2(\R)\otimes \R^N$ for an arbitrary $N\geq 1$, and whose interaction potential is…
