We consider periodic Schr\"{o}dinger operators on the hexagonal lattice with self-adjoint vertex conditions that allow discontinuity and concentrated mass at the vertices. This model generalizes the periodic Schr\"{o}dinger operator on the…
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 are concerned with the non-normal Schr\"odinger operator $$ H=-\Delta+V $$ on $ L^2(\mathbb R^n)$, where $V\in W^{1,\infty}_{\text{loc}}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ and $\operatorname{Re} (V(x))\ge c|x|^2-d$ for some $c,d>0$. The spectrum of this…
Let us concern the quasi-periodic Schr\"odinger operator in the continuous case, \begin{equation*} (Hy)(x)=-y^{\prime\prime}(x)+V(x,\omega x)y(x), \end{equation*} where $V:(\R/\Z)^2\to \R$ is piecewisely $\gamma$-H\"older continuous with…
In a variety of contexts, we prove that singular continuous spectrum is generic in the sense that for certain natural complete metric spaces of operators, those with singular spectrum are a dense $G_\delta$.
We consider the Schr\"odinger operator $H = -\Delta + V$ in a layer or in a $d$-dimensional cylinder. The potential $V$ is assumed to be periodic with respect to some lattice. We establish the absolute continuity of $H$, assuming $V \in…
We study the spectral properties of discrete one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators with Sturmian potentials. It is shown that the point spectrum is always empty. Moreover, for rotation numbers with bounded density, we establish purely…
In this article, we give a general construction of spectral triples from certain Lie group actions on unital C*-algebras. If the group G is compact and the action is ergodic, we actually obtain a real and finitely summable spectral triple…
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…
We study discrete Schroedinger operators $(H_{\alpha,\theta}\psi)(n)= \psi(n-1)+\psi(n+1)+f(\alpha n+\theta)\psi(n)$ on $l^2(Z)$, where $f(x)$ is a real analytic periodic function of period 1. We prove a general theorem relating the measure…
We prove a quantum-ergodicity theorem on large graphs, for eigenfunctions of Schr\"odinger operators in a very general setting. We consider a sequence of finite graphs endowed with discrete Schr\"odinger operators, assumed to have a local…
We consider discrete Schr\"odinger operators with periodic potentials on periodic graphs perturbed by guided non-positive potentials, which are periodic in some directions and finitely supported in other ones. The spectrum of the…
A tree-strip of finite cone type is the product of a tree of finite cone type with a finite set. We consider random Schr\"odinger operators on these tree strips, similar to the Anderson model. We prove that for small disorder the spectrum…
We present and exploit an analogy between lack of absolutely continuous spectrum for Schroedinger operators and natural boundaries for power series. Among our new results are generalizations of Hecke's example and natural boundary examples…
We prove a localization theorem for continuous ergodic Schr\"odinger operators $ H_\omega := H_0 + V_\omega $, where the random potential $ V_\omega $ is a nonnegative Anderson-type perturbation of the periodic operator $ H_0$. We consider…
It is known that the essential spectrum of a Schr\"odinger operator $H$ on $\ell^{2}\left(\mathbb{N}\right)$ is equal to the union of the spectra of right limits of $H$. The natural generalization of this relation to $\mathbb{Z}^{n}$ is…
Fermi surfaces are basic objects in solid state physics and in the spectral theory of periodic operators. We define several measures connected to Fermi surfaces and study their measure theoretic properties. From this we get absence of…
Let $\G$ be a Carnot group of homogeneous dimension $M$ and $\Delta$ its horizontal sublaplacian. For $\alpha\in(0,M)$ we show that operators of the form $H_\alpha:=(-\Delta)^\alpha+V$ have no singular spectrum, under generous assumptions…
Schr\"odinger operators with periodic (possibly complex-valued) potentials and discrete periodic operators (possibly with complex-valued entries) are considered, and in both cases the computational spectral problem is investigated: namely,…
We prove an asymptotic expansion for the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of Schr\"{o}dinger-type operator with a confining potential and with principle part a periodic elliptic operator in divergence form. We compare the spectrum to the…
