We apply recent results on semi-classical trace formulae and on Birkhoff normal forms for semi-classical Fourier integral operators to a wide range of semi-classical and high energy spectral inverse problems.

We prove a generalization of the well-known theorems by Borg and Hochstadt for periodic self-adjoint Schr\"odinger operators without a spectral gap, respectively, one gap in their spectrum, in the matrix-valued context. Our extension of the…

Eigenvalue behavior for the equation -\lambda y"=Vu on the edges of a graph G of final total length, with a non-negative weight function V and under the Kirchhoff matching conditions at the vertices and zero boundary condition at at least…

It is well known that the sum of negative (positive) eigenvalues of some finite Hermitian matrix $V$ is concave (convex) with respect to $V$. Using the theory of the spectral shift function we generalize this property to self-adjoint…

We construct a class of matrix-valued Schr\"odinger operators with prescribed finite-band spectra of maximum spectral multiplicity. The corresponding matrix potentials are shown to be stationary solutions of the KdV hierarchy. The methods…

We derive a general upper bound on the spreading rate of wavepackets in the framework of Schr\"odinger time evolution. Our result consists of showing that a portion of the wavepacket cannot escape outside a ball whose size grows dynamically…

For a class of non-selfadjoint h-pseudodifferential operators in dimension 2, we determine all eigenvalues in an h-independent domain in the complex plane and show that they are given by a Bohr-Sommerfeld quantization condition. No complete…

Consider an h-pseudodifferential operator P, whose symbol extends holomorphically to a tubular neighborhood of the real phase space and converges sufficiently fast to 1, so that the determinant of P is well-defined. We show that the modulus…

We construct examples of potentials $V(x)$ satisfying $|V(x)| \leq \frac{h(x)}{1+x},$ where the function $h(x)$ is growing arbitrarily slowly, such that the corresponding Schr\"odinger operator has imbedded singular continuous spectrum.…

In this work we construct logarithms and Birkhoff normal forms for elliptic Fourier integral operators in the semi-classical limit under more general assumptions than in aprevious work by the first author. The methods are similar but…

It is proved recently by Benamara-Nikolski that a contraction having finite defects and spectrum not filling in the closed unit disc, is similar to a normal operator if and only if it has the so-called linear resolvent growth property. We…

A perturbation decaying to 0 at infinity and not too irregular at 0 introduces at most a discrete set of eigenvalues into the spectral gaps of a one-dimensional Dirac operator on the half-line. We show that the number of these eigenvalues…

Assuming some regularity of the dynamical zeta function, we establish an explicit formula with an error term for the prime orbit counting function of a suspended flow. We define the subclass of self-similar flows, for which we give an…

The Schr\"odinger operator on a metric tree is a family of ordinary differential operators on its edges complemented by certain matching conditions at the vertices. The regular trees are highly symmetric. This allows one to construct an…

This paper is the continuation of the work "On an inverse problem for finite-difference operators of second order". We consider the Cauchy problem for the Toda lattice in the case when the corresponding L-operator is a Jacobi matrix with…

The Jacobi matrices with bounded elements whose spectrum of multiplicity 2 is separated from its simple spectrum and contains an interval of absolutely continuous spectrum are considered. A new type of spectral data, which are analogous for…

The Riemann problem is studied in the case when the unknown function has nonisolated singularities, concentrated on the real axis. The problem is used for the factorization of functions, holomorphic outside of the unit circle and the real…

We prove several new results on the absolutely continuous spectra of perturbed one-dimensional Stark operators. First, we find new classes of perturbations, characterized mainly by smoothness conditions, which preserve purely absolutely…

We prove existence of modified wave operators for one-dimensional Schr\"odinger equations with potential in $L^p(\reals)$, $p<2$. If in addition the potential is conditionally integrable, then the usual M\"oller wave operators exist. We…

We look at invariance of a.e. boundary condition spectral behavior under perturbations, $W$, of half-line, continuum or discrete Schr\"odinger operators. We extend the results of del Rio, Simon, Stolz from compactly supported $W$'s to…
