We use the classical results of Baxter and Gollinski-Ibragimov to prove a new spectral equivalence for Jacobi matrices on $l^2(\N)$. In particular, we consider the class of Jacobi matrices with conditionally summable parameter sequences and…

We discuss the proof of and systematic application of Case's sum rules for Jacobi matrices. Of special interest is a linear combination of two of his sum rules which has strictly positive terms. Among our results are a complete…

A Jacobi matrix with $a_n\to 1$, $b_n\to 0$ and spectral measure $\nu'(x)dx + d\nu_{sing}(x)$ satisfies the Szeg\H o condition if $\int_{0}^\pi \ln \bigl[ \nu'(2\cos\theta) \bigr] d\theta$ is finite. We prove that if $a_n = 1 + \frac…

For a Jacobi matrix J on l^2(Z_+) with Ju(n)=a_{n-1} u(n-1) + b_n u(n) + a_n u(n+1), we prove that \sum_{|E|>2} (E^2 -4)^{1/2} \leq \sum_n |b_n| + 4\sum_n |a_n -1|. We also prove bounds on higher moments and some related results in higher…

We study the Case sum rules, especially $C_0$, for general Jacobi matrices. We establish situations where the sum rule is valid. Applications include an extension of Shohat's theorem to cases with an infinite point spectrum and a proof that…

We announce three results in the theory of Jacobi matrices and Schr\"odinger operators. First, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for a measure to be the spectral measure of a Schr\"odinger operator $-\f{d^2}{dx^2} +V(x)$ on $L^2…

Let $f$ be a function on the unit circle and $D_n(f)$ be the determinant of the $(n+1)\times (n+1)$ matrix with elements $\{c_{j-i}\}_{0\leq i,j\leq n}$ where $c_m =\hat f_m\equiv \int e^{-im\theta} f(\theta) \f{d\theta}{2\pi}$. The sharp…

We consider Jacobi matrices whose essential spectrum is a finite union of closed intervals. We focus on Szego's theorem, Jost solutions, and Szego asymptotics for this situation. This announcement describes talks the authors gave at OPSFA…

For Jacobi matrices with a_n = 1+(-1)^n alpha n^{-gamma}, b_n = (-1)^n beta n^{-gamma}, we study bound states and the SzegHo condition. We provide a new proof of Nevai's result that if gamma > 1/2, the Szego condition holds, which works…

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…

Extending earlier work of Killip-Simon and Simon-Zlatos, we obtain sum rules for Jacobi matrices in which the a.c. part of the spectral measure and the eigenvalues of the matrix appear on opposite sides of the equation. We use these to…

We study the wave operators for a Jacobi matrix whose spectral measure satisfies the Szeg\"o condition. We prove existence and completeness of wave operators under a mild additional assumption on the Verblunsky coefficients of the…

We study structural properties of the Lyapunov exponent $\gamma$ and the density of states $k$ for ergodic (or just invariant) Jacobi matrices in a general framework. In this analysis, a central role is played by the function…

We give a simple and explicit description of the Bernstein-Szego type measures associated with Jacobi matrices which differ from the Jacobi matrix of the Chebyshev measure in finitely many entries. We also introduce a class of measures M…

At present there exist numerous different approaches to results on Toeplitz determinants of the type of Szeg\"o's strong limit theorem. The intention of this paper is to show that Jacobi's theorem on the minors of the inverse matrix remains…

In this paper it is considered a spectral density for a class of Jacobi matrices with absolutely continuous spectrum that was examined first by Moszynski. It is shown that the corresponding spectral density is equivalent to the positive…

This work is in a stream initiated by a paper of Killip and Simon [Ann. of Math. (2003)]. Using methods of Functional Analysis and the classical Szeg\"o Theorem we prove sum rule identities in a very general form. Then, we apply the result…

Let $\fre\subset\bbR$ be a finite union of disjoint closed intervals. We study measures whose essential support is $\fre$ and whose discrete eigenvalues obey a 1/2-power condition. We show that a Szeg\H{o} condition is equivalent to \[…

Let $\Gamma < G := \operatorname{SO}(d+1, 1)$ for $d \geq 1$ be a Zariski dense, geometrically finite, discrete subgroup with critical exponent strictly greater than $d/2$. We show that $L^2(\Gamma\backslash G)$ admits a strong spectral…

Recent results of Denisov and Kaluzhny-Shamis describe the absolutely continuous spectrum of Jacobi matrices with coefficients that obey an l^2 bounded variation condition with step p and are asymptotically periodic. We extend these results…
