We obtain the estimate of the Lebesgue measure of the spectrum for the direct integral of matrix-valued functions. These estimates are applicable for a wide class of discrete periodic operators. For example: these results give new and sharp…

Two trace formulas for the spectra of arbitrary Hermitian matrices are derived by transforming the given Hermitian matrix $H$ to a unitary analogue. In the first type the unitary matrix is $e^{i(\lambda\II - H)}$ where $\lambda$ is the…

A Heisenberg uniqueness pair is a pair $\left(\Gamma, \Lambda\right)$, where $\Gamma$ is a curve and $\Lambda$ is a set in $\mathbb R^2$ such that whenever a finite Borel measure $\mu$ having support on $\Gamma$ which is absolutely…

A list $\Lambda =\{\lambda _{1},\ldots ,\lambda _{n}\}$ of complex numbers (repeats allowed) is said to be \textit{realizable} if it is the spectrum of an entrywise nonnegative matrix $A$. $\Lambda $ is \textit{diagonalizably realizable} if…

To every $n$-dimensional lens space $L$, we associate a congruence lattice $\mathcal L$ in $\mathbb Z^m$, with $n=2m-1$ and we prove a formula relating the multiplicities of Hodge-Laplace eigenvalues on $L$ with the number of lattice…

Let $\Omega$ be an open, simply connected, and bounded region in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$, $d\geq2$, and assume its boundary $\partial\Omega$ is smooth. Consider solving the eigenvalue problem $Lu=\lambda u$ for an elliptic partial differential…

Let $\mu$ be a self-similar measure generated by iterated function system of four maps of equal contraction ratio $0<\rho<1$. We study when $\mu$ is a spectral measure which means that it admits an exponential orthonormal basis $\{e^{2\pi i…

Effect algebras were introduced as an abstract algebraic model for Hilbert space effects representing quantum mechanical measurements. We study additional structures on an effect algebra $E$ that enable us to define spectrality and spectral…

In this paper we show that if $\mu$ is any locally and uniformly $\alpha$-dimensional measure supported on a $\alpha$-quasi-regular set $E$, then $L^2(\mu)$ admits a frame of exponentials. In particular, for the uniform middle third Cantor…

A subset $S$ of the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^2$ is called orthogonal-pair-free if and only if there do not exist two distinct points $u, v \in S$ at distance $\frac{\pi}{2}$ from each other. Witsenhausen \cite{witsenhausen} asked the…

Let ${\cal D}$ denote the class of bounded real analytic plane domains with the symmetry of an ellipse. We prove that if $\Omega_1, \Omega_2 \in {\cal D}$ and if the Dirichlet spectra coincide, $Spec(\Omega_1) = Spec(\Omega_2)$, then…

In this paper, we investigate the relationship between positive definite functions on the unit sphere $\sph$ and on the Euclidean space $\RR^d$. For the dimension $d$ to be odd, a new technique is developed to establish the inheritance of…

Given a bounded domain $\Omega \subset {\Bbb R}^d$ with positive measure and a finite set $A=\{a^1, a^2, \dots, a^d\}$, we say that the set ${\mathcal E}(A)={\{e^{2 \pi i x \cdot a^j}\}}_{a^j \in A}$ is a complete exponential system if for…

In connection to the Fuglede conjecture, and to Fuglede's original work \cite{Fug74}, we study one-parameter unitary groups associated to self-adjoint extensions of the differential operator $Df=\frac1{2\pi i}f'$ on a union of finite…

We give an example of a set $\Omega \subset \R^5$ which is a finite union of unit cubes, such that $L^2(\Omega)$ admits an orthonormal basis of exponentials $\{\frac{1}{|\Omega|^{1/2}} e^{2\pi i \xi_j \cdot x}: \xi_j \in \Lambda \}$ for…

Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a right quaternionic Hilbert space and let $T$ be a bounded normal right quaternionic linear operator on $\mathcal{H}$. In this paper, we prove that there exists a unique spectral measure $E$ in $\mathcal{H}$ such that…

We call a set $K \subset {\mathbb R}^s$ with positive Lebesgue measure a {\it spectral set} if $L^2(K)$ admits an exponential orthonormal basis. It was conjectured that $K$ is a spectral set if and only if $K$ is a tile (Fuglede's…
