We use the method of similar operators to study a general Dirac operator $L$ and its spectral properties. We find a similar operator to the Dirac operator that is an orthogonal direct sum of simpler operators. The result is used to describe…
After analyzing Dirac's equation, one can suggest that a well-known quantum-mechanical momentum operator is associated with relativistic momentum, rather than with non-relativistic one. Consideration of relativistic energy and momentum…

We obtain bounds for the spectrum and for the total width of the spectral gaps for Jacobi matrices on $\ell^2(\Z)$ of the form $(H\psi)_n= a_{n-1}\psi_{n-1}+b_n\psi_n+a_n\psi_{n+1}$, where $a_n=a_{n+q}$ and $b_n=b_{n+q}$ are periodic…
We consider the spectrum of the almost Mathieu operator $H_\alpha$ with frequency $\alpha$ and in the case of the critical coupling. Let an irrational $\alpha$ be such that $|\alpha-p_n/q_n|<c q_n^{-\varkappa}$, where $p_n/q_n$,…

We turn back to the well known problem of interpretation of the Schrodinger operator with the pseudopotential being the first derivative of the Dirac function. We show that the problem in its conventional formulation contains hidden…

We study the quasi-periodic Schr\"odinger operator $$ -\psi"(x) + V(x) \psi(x) = E \psi(x), \qquad x \in \mathbb{R} $$ in the regime of "small" $V(x) = \sum_{m\in\mathbb{Z}^\nu}c(m)\exp (2\pi i m\omega x)$, $\omega = (\omega_1, \dots,…
We consider the Dirichlet realization of the operator $-h^2\Delta+iV$ in the semi-classical limit $h\to0$, where $V$ is a smooth real potential with no critical points. For a one dimensional setting, we obtain the complete asymptotic…
We derive H\"older regularity estimates for operators associated with a time independent Schr\"odinger operator of the form $-\Delta+V$. The results are obtained by checking a certain condition on the function $T1$. Our general method…
The issue of general covariance of spinors and related objects is reconsidered. Given an oriented manifold $M$, to each spin structure $\sigma$ and Riemannian metric $g$ there is associated a space $S_{\sigma, g}$ of spinor fields on $M$…
In this paper we introduce the Dirac and spin-Dirac operators associated to a connection on Riemann-Cartan space(time) and standard Dirac and spin-Dirac operators associated with a Levi-Civita connection on a Riemannian (Lorentzian)…
We study an operator analogue of the classical problem of finding the rate of decay of an oscillatory integral on the real line. This particular problem arose in the analysis of oscillatory Riemann-Hilbert problems associated with partial…
We propose a correspondence between loop operators in a family of four dimensional N=2 gauge theories on S^4 -- including Wilson, 't Hooft and dyonic operators -- and Liouville theory loop operators on a Riemann surface. This extends the…
We review the construction of the Dirac operator and its properties in Riemannian geometry and show how the asymptotic expansion of the trace of the heat kernel determines the spectral invariants of the Dirac operator and its index. We also…
