Considering the radial nonlinear Schrodinger equation - \Delta u + V(x)u = g(x,u) in R^N, N \geq 3 we aim to find a radial nontrivial solution for it, where V changes sign ensuring this problem is indefinite and g is an asymptotically…

Let $H_0$, $H$ be a pair of self-adjoint operators for which the standard assumptions of the smooth version of scattering theory hold true. We give an explicit description of the absolutely continuous spectrum of the operator…

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:…

Aubry-Mather is traditionally concerned with Tonelli Hamiltonian (convex and super-linear). In \cite{Vi,MVZ}, Mather's $\alpha$ function is recovered from the homogenization of symplectic capacities. This allows the authors to extend the…

This paper delves into three research directions, leveraging the Lov\'{a}sz $\vartheta$-function of a graph. First, it focuses on the Shannon capacity of graphs, providing new results that determine the capacity for two infinite subclasses…

Let $(W,S)$ be a Coxeter system whose graph is connected, with no infinite edges. A self-map $\tau$ of $W$ such that $\tau_{\sigma\theta}\in \{\tau_{\theta},\ \sigma\tau_{\theta}\}$ for all $\theta\in W$ and all reflections $\sigma$…

Suppose $\alpha, \beta$ are Lipschitz strongly concave functions from $[0, 1]$ to $\mathbb{R}$ and $\gamma$ is a concave function from $[0, 1]$ to $\mathbb{R}$, such that $\alpha(0) = \gamma(0) = 0$, and $\alpha(1) = \beta(0) = 0$ and…

For a $n\times n$ unitary matrix $u=e^z$ with $z$ skew-Hermitian, the angles of $u$ are the arguments of its spectrum, i.e. the spectrum of $-iz$. For $1\le m\le n$, we show that $s_m(t)$, the sum of the first $m$ angles of the path…

We prove some Schur positivity results for the chromatic symmetric function $X_G$ of a (hyper)graph $G$, using connections to the group algebra of the symmetric group. The first such connection works for (hyper)forests $F$: we describe the…

In (J. Funct. Anal. 257, 1092-1132 (2009)), Dykema and Skripka showed the existence of higher order spectral shift functions when the unperturbed self-adjoint operator is bounded and the perturbations is Hilbert-Schmidt. In this article, we…

We compute spectra and Brown measures of some non self-adjoint operators in $(M_2(\cc), {1/2}Tr)*(M_2(\cc), {1/2}Tr)$, the reduced free product von Neumann algebra of $M_2(\cc)$ with $M_2(\cc)$. Examples include $AB$ and $A+B$, where A and…

We show that Sarnak's conjecture on M\"obius disjointness holds in every uniquely ergodic modelof a quasi-discrete spectrum automorphism. A consequence of this result is that, for each non constant polynomial $P\in\R[x]$ with irrational…

We consider the discrete Schr\"odinger operator $H = -\Delta + V$ on $\ell^2(\mathbb{Z}^d)$ with a decaying potential, in arbitrary lattice dimension $d\in\mathbb{N}^*$, where $\Delta$ is the standard discrete Laplacian and $V_n =…

The product $s_\mu s_\nu$ of two Schur functions is one of the most famous examples of a Schur-positive function, i.e. a symmetric function which, when written as a linear combination of Schur functions, has all positive coefficients. We…

The celebrated Heinz inequality asserts that $ 2|||A^{1/2}XB^{1/2}|||\leq |||A^{\nu}XB^{1-\nu}+A^{1-\nu}XB^{\nu}|||\leq |||AX+XB|||$ for $X \in \mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H})$, $A,B\in \+$, every unitarily invariant norm $|||\cdot|||$ and $\nu \in…

We consider contractive operators $T$ that are trace class perturbations of a unitary operator $U$. We prove that the dimension functions of the absolutely continuous spectrum of $T$, $T^*$ and of $U$ coincide. In particular, if $U$ has a…

Avila and Jitomirskaya prove that the quasi-periodic Schr\"{o}dinger operator $H_{\lambda v,\alpha,\theta}$ has purely absolutely continuous spectrum for $\alpha $ in sub-exponential regime (i.e., $\beta(\alpha)=0$) with small $\lambda$, if…

Let $(M,g)$ be a compact $n$-dimensional Riemannian manifold without boundary and $e_\lambda$ be an $L^2$-normalized eigenfunction of the Laplace-Beltrami operator with respect to the metric $g$, i.e \[ -\Delta_g e_\lambda = \lambda^2…

Let $u=\int_{-\infty}^{+\infty}\lambda dE_{\lambda}$ be a self-adjoint operator in a Hilbert space $H$. Our purpose is to provide a non-standard description of the spectral family $(E_{\lambda})$ and the generalized Gelfand eigenvectors.

The study of harmonic functions on a locally compact group $G$ has recently been transferred to a ``non-commutative'' setting in two different directions: C.-H. Chu and A. T.-M. Lau replaced the algebra $L^\infty(G)$ by the group von…
