We prove Strichartz estimates for the absolutely continuous evolution of a Schr\"odinger operator $H = (i\nabla + A)^2 + V$ in $\R^n$, $n > 2$. Both the magnetic and electric potentials are time-independent and satisfy pointwise polynomial…

We prove that the spectrum of the almost Mathieu operator is absolutely continuous if and only if the coupling is subcritical. This settles Problem 6 of Barry Simon's list of Schr\"odinger operator problems for the twenty-first century.

We review a geometric approach to proving absolutely continuous (ac) spectrum for random and deterministic Schr\"odinger operators developed in \cite{FHS1,FHS2,FHS3,FHS4}. We study decaying potentials in one dimension and present a…

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…

Let $T$ be a self-adjoint operator in a Hilbert space $H$ with domain $\mathcal D(T)$. Assume that the spectrum of $T$ is confined in the union of disjoint intervals $\Delta_k =[\alpha_{2k-1},\alpha_{2k}]$, $k\in \mathbb{Z}$, and $$…

Using a perturbative argument, we show that in any finite region containing the lowest transverse eigenmode, the spectrum of a periodically curved smooth Dirichlet tube in two or three dimensions is absolutely continuous provided the tube…

We consider the Stark operator perturbed by a compactly supported potential (of a certain class) on the real line. We prove the following results: (a) upper and lower bounds on the number of resonances in complex discs with large radii, (b)…

This paper investigates the stability properties of the spectrum of the classical Steklov problem under domain perturbation. We find conditions which guarantee the spectral stability and we show their optimality. We emphasize the fact that…

We establish criteria for the stability of the essential spectrum for unbounded operators acting in Banach modules. The applications cover operators acting on sections of vector fiber bundles over non-smooth manifolds or locally compact…

We consider decaying oscillatory perturbations of periodic Schr\"odinger operators on the half line. More precisely, the perturbations we study satisfy a generalized bounded variation condition at infinity and an $L^p$ decay condition. We…

We show that a large class of limit-periodic Schr\"odinger operators has purely absolutely continuous spectrum in arbitrary dimensions. This result was previously known only in dimension one. The proof proceeds through the non-perturbative…

We consider the discrete Schr\"odinger operator $H=-\Delta+V$ with a sparse potential $V$ and find conditions guaranteeing either existence of wave operators for the pair $H$ and $H_0=-\Delta$, or presence of dense purely point spectrum of…

We prove that the spectrum of Schroedinger operators in three dimensions is purely continuous and coincides with the non-negative semiaxis for all potentials satisfying a form-subordinate smallness condition. By developing the method of…

In this paper we present a complete spectral analysis of Dirac operators with non-Hermitian matrix potentials of the form $i\operatorname{sgn}(x)+V(x)$ where $V\in L^1$. For $V=0$ we compute explicitly the matrix Green function. This allows…
