The secular manifold $\Sigma_G$ and its singularities are intimately related to the spectra of metric graphs $(G,\ell)$. In this paper, we present a complete description of the singular locus for tree graphs, and confirm that it agrees with…

The categoricity spectrum of a class of structures is the collection of cardinals in which the class has a single model up to isomorphism. Assuming that cardinal exponentiation is injective (a weakening of the generalized continuum…

We prove several results showing that absolutely continuous spectrum for the Laplacian on radial trees is a rare event. In particular, we show that metric trees with unbounded edges have purely singular spectrum and that generically (in the…

Categorical spectra are spectrum objects in pointed $(\infty,\infty)$-categories: sequences $(X_n)$ equipped with equivalences $X_n\simeq \Omega X_{n+1}$. This thesis develops foundations for categorical spectra and constructs their tensor…

We are interested in the nature of the spectrum of the one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operator $$ - \frac{d^2}{dx^2}-Fx + \sum_{n \in \mathbb{Z}}g_n \delta(x-n) \qquad\text{in } L^2(\mathbb{R}) $$ with $F>0$ and two different choices of the…

The structure of the spectrum of random operators is studied. It is shown that if the density of states measure of some subsets of the spectrum is zero, then these subsets are empty. In particular follows that absolute continuity of the IDS…

It is proven that the absolutely continuous spectrum of matrix Schr\"{o}dinger operators coincides (with the multiplicity taken into account) with the spectrum of the unperturbed operator if the (matrix) potential is square integrable. The…

Let $A\colon H\rightarrow H$ be a normal operator on an infinite-dimensional separable Hilbert space $H$ and let $S\subseteq H$ be a finite subset such that $\{A^nx\}_{n\geq 0,\,x\in S}$ can be rescaled to form a frame for $H$. That is,…

We proved that Schr\"odinger operators with unbounded potentials $(H_{\alpha,\theta}u)_n=u_{n+1}+u_{n-1}+ \frac{g(\theta+n\alpha)}{f(\theta+n\alpha)} u_n$ have purely singular continuous spectrum on the set $\{E:…

We analyze a model quantum dynamical system subjected to periodic interaction with an environment, which can describe quantum measurements. Under the condition of strong classical chaos and strong decoherence due to large coupling with the…

For some metric spaces of self-adjoint operators, it is shown that the set of operators whose spectral measures have simultaneously zero upper-Hausdorff and one lower-packing dimensions contains a dense $G_\delta$ subset. Applications…

We show that, on a standard non-atomic probability space, invertible measure-preserving transformations form a dense $G_\delta$ subset of the space of all measure-preserving transformations endowed with the strong (=weak) operator topology.…

A bounded set $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ is called a spectral set if the space $L^2(\Omega)$ admits a complete orthogonal system of exponential functions. We prove that a cylindric set $\Omega$ is spectral if and only if its base is a…
