Using Carleman estimates, we give a lower bound for solutions to the discrete Schr\"odinger equation in both dynamic and stationary settings that allows us to prove uniqueness results, under some assumptions on the decay of the solutions.
Motivated by applications to stochastic differential equations, an extension of H\"{o}rmander's hypoellipticity theorem is proved for second-order degenerate elliptic operators with non-smooth coefficients. The main results are established…

Previous results on Hessian measures by Trudinger and Wang are extended to the subelliptic case. Specifically we prove the weak continuity of the 2-Hessian operator, with respect to local L1 convergence, for a system of m vector fields of…

We study Schroedinger operators with periodic magnetic field in Euclidean 2-space, in the case of irrational magnetic flux. Positive measure Cantor spectrum is generically expected in the presence of an electric potential. We show that,…
This paper concerns about the weak unique continuation property of solutions of a general system of differential equation/inequality with a second order strongly elliptic system as its leading part. We put not only some natural assumption…
Let $H$ be a selfadjoint operator and $A$ a closed operator on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. If $A$ is $H$-(super)smooth in the sense of Kato-Yajima, we prove that $AH^{-\frac14}$ is $\sqrt{H}$-(super)smooth. This allows to include wave…

We present an estimate for the lower bound for the Schoenberg operator with equidistant knots in terms of the second order modulus of smoothness. We investigate the behaviour of iterates of the Schoenberg operator and in addition, we show…
