We consider one dimensional Schr\"{o}dinger operators $H_\lambda=-\frac{d^2}{dx^2}+U+ \lambda V_\lambda$ with nonlinear dependence on the parameter $\lambda$ and study the small $\lambda$ behaviour of eigenvalues. The potentials $U$ and…
A fundamental theorem of Liouville asserts that positive entire harmonic functions in Euclidean spaces must be constant. A remarkable Liouville-type theorem of Caffarelli-Gidas-Spruck states that positive entire solutions of $-\Delta u=u^{…
We investigate angles between Haagerup--Schultz projections of operators belonging to finite von Neumann algebras, in connection with a property analogous to Dunford's notion of spectrality of operators. In particular, we show that an…
The celebrated Cwikel-Lieb_Rozenblum inequality gives an upper estimate for the number of negative eigenvalues of Schroedinger operators in dimension three and higher. The situation is much more difficult in the two dimensional case. There…
Classical results from Sturm-Liouville theory state that the number of unstable eigenvalues of a scalar, second-order linear operator is equal to the number of associated conjugate points. Recent work has extended these results to a much…
Computing response functions by following the time evolution of superoperators in Liouville space (whose vectors are ordinary Hilbert space operators) offers an attractive alternative to the diagrammatic perturbative expansion of many-body…
Can you hear the shape of Liouville quantum gravity? We obtain a Weyl law for the eigenvalues of Liouville Brownian motion: the $n$-th eigenvalue grows linearly with $n$, with the proportionality constant given by the Liouville area of the…
A survey of estimates on the number $N_-(\BM_{\a G})$ of negative eigenvalues (bound states) of the Sturm-Liouville operator $\BM_{\a G}u=-u"-\a G$ on the half-line, as depending on the properties of the function $G$ and the value of the…

The products of weak values of quantum observables are shown to be of value in deriving quantum uncertainty and complementarity relations, for both weak and strong measurement statistics. First, a 'product representation formula' allows the…
We use spectral projections of time operator in the Liouville space for simple quantum scattering systems in order to define a space of unstable particle states evolving under a contractive semi-group. This space includes purely…
This article examines Gaussian processes generated by monotonically modulating stationary kernels. An explicit isometry between the original and the modulated reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces is established, preserving eigenvalues and…
We point out two interesting features of position-momentum uncertainty product: $U=\Delta x \Delta p$. We show that two special (non-differentiable) eigenstates of the Schr{\"o}dinger operator with the Dirac Delta potential $[V(x)=-V_0…
A spectral theory of linear operators on a rigged Hilbert space is applied to Schr\"odinger operators with exponentially decaying potentials and dilation analytic potentials. The theory of rigged Hilbert spaces provides a unified approach…
A typical result of the paper is the following. Let $H_\gamma=H_0 +\gamma V$ where $H_0$ is multiplication by $|x|^{2l}$ and $V$ is an integral operator with kernel $\cos< x,y\rang le$ in the space $L_2(R^d)$. If $l=d/2+ 2k$ for some $k=…
The spectral properties of a set of local gauge-invariant composite operators are investigated in the $U(1)$ Higgs model quantized in the 't Hooft $R_{\xi}$ gauge. These operators enable us to give a gauge-invariant description of the…

The classical Gaussian concentration inequality for Lipschitz functions is adapted to a setting where the classical assumptions (i.e. Lipschitz and Gaussian) are not met. The theory is more direct than much of the existing theory designed…
In this paper, we investigate the eigenvalue problem for a non-local dispersal operator defined on a bounded spatial domain with Neumann-type boundary conditions. Unlike the classical Laplacian, the non-local operator lacks compactness,…
