We introduce the periodic Airy-Schr\"odinger operator and we study its band spectrum. This is an example of an explicitly solvable model with a periodic potential which is not differentiable at its minima and maxima. We define a…
We show that for a class of $C^2$ quasiperiodic potentials and for any Diophantine frequency, the spectrum of the corresponding Schr\"odinger operators is Cantor. Our approach is of purely dynamical systems, which depends on a detailed…
We review recent advances in the spectral theory of Schr\"odinger operators with decaying potentials. The area has seen spectacular progress in the past few years, stimulated by several conjectures stated by Barry Simon starting at the 1994…
We establish quantitative upper and lower bounds for Schr\"odinger operators with complex potentials that satisfy some weak form of sparsity. Our first result is a quantitative version of an example, due to S.\ Boegli (Comm. Math. Phys.,…
We give a spectral description of the semi-classical Schrodinger operator with a piecewise linear, complex valued potential. Moreover, using these results, we show how an arbitrarily small bounded perturbation of a non-self-adjoint operator…
The determination of the spectrum of a Schr\"odinger operator is a fundamental problem in mathematical quantum mechanics. We discuss a series of results showing that Schr\"odinger operators can exhibit spectra that are remarkably thin in…
The subject of the paper are Schr\"odinger operators on tree graphs which are radial having the branching number $b_n$ at all the vertices at the distance $t_n$ from the root. We consider a family of coupling conditions at the vertices…

We analyze two-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators with the potential $|xy|^p - \lambda (x^2+y^2)^{p/(p+2)}$ where $p\ge 1$ and $\lambda\ge 0$, which exhibit an abrupt change of its spectral properties at a critical value of the coupling…
Consider a two-dimensional domain shaped like a wire, not necessarily of uniform cross section. Let $V$ denote an electric potential driven by a voltage drop between the conducting surfaces of the wire. We consider the operator ${\mathcal…
We consider some compact non-selfadjoint perturbations of fibered one-dimensional discrete Schr\"odinger operators. We show that the perturbed operator exhibits finite discrete spectrum under suitable\- regularity conditions.
We consider magnetic Schr\"odinger operators with periodic magnetic and electric potentials on periodic discrete graphs. The spectrum of the operators consists of an absolutely continuous part (a union of a finite number of non-degenerate…
We consider discrete Schr\"odinger operators on the half line with potentials generated by the doubling map and continuous sampling functions. We show that the essential spectrum of these operators is always connected. This result is…
For certain one-dimensional Schroedinger-type difference operators with a complex potential, a "complete" set of exponentially decaying eigenvectors is shown to exist. "Completeness" entails that the parameters involved are obtained through…
We study multi-frequency quasiperiodic Schr\"{o}dinger operators on $\mathbb{Z} $. We prove that for a large real analytic potential satisfying certain restrictions the spectrum consists of a single interval. The result is a consequence of…
A tree-strip of finite cone type is the product of a tree of finite cone type with a finite set. We consider random Schr\"odinger operators on these tree strips, similar to the Anderson model. We prove that for small disorder the spectrum…

We provide sufficient conditions for the discreteness of spectrum for magnetic Schr\"odinger operators. They generalize the classical result by K.Friedrichs (1934) and earlier results by J.Avron, I.Herbst and B.Simon (1978), A.Dufresnoy…
