We consider the magnetic Schr\"odinger operator $H=(i \nabla +A)^2- V$ with a non-negative potential $V$ supported over a strip which is a local deformation of a straight one, and the magnetic field $B:=\mathrm{rot}(A)$ is assumed to be…

We study the behavior of the wave kernel of the Laplacian on asymptotically complex hyperbolic manifolds for finite times. We show that the wave kernel on such manifolds belongs to an appropriate class of Fourier integral operators and…

We review some results and proofs on eigenvalue bounds for random Schr\"odinger operators with complex-valued potentials. We also include new Schatten norm estimates for the resolvent and use them to obtain bounds for sums of eigenvalues.

We consider 1D discrete Schr\"odinger operators with aperiodic potentials given by a Sturmian word, which is a natural generalisation of the Fibonacci Hamiltonian. Via a standard approximation by periodic potentials, we establish Hausdorff…

We prove spectral rigidity theorems for the infinitesimal generators of representations of twisted $S_\nu U(2)$ groups

This article undertakes an analysis of the one-dimensional heat equation, wherein the Dirichlet condition is applied at the left end and Neumann condition at the right end. The heat equation is restructured as a non-self-adjoint $2\times 2$…

From the general inverse theory of periodic Jacobi matrices, it is known that a periodic Jacobi matrix of minimal period $p \geq 2$ may have at most $p-2$ closed spectral gaps. We discuss the maximal number of closed gaps for…

We consider the limit measures induced by the rescaled eigenfunctions of single-well Schr\"odinger operators. We show that the limit measure is supported on $[-1,1]$ and with the density proportional to $(1-|x|^\beta)^{-1/2}$ when the…

We exploit the so called form-local subordination in the analysis of non-symmetric perturbations of unbounded self-adjoint operators with isolated simple positive eigenvalues. If the proper condition relating the size of gaps between the…

We analyze perturbations of the harmonic oscillator type operators in a Hilbert space H, i.e. of the self-adjoint operator with simple positive eigenvalues $\mu_k$ satisfying $\mu_{k+1}-\mu_k \geq \Delta >0$. Perturbations are considered in…

We constrain the low-energy spectra of Laplace operators on closed hyperbolic manifolds and orbifolds in three dimensions, including the standard Laplace-Beltrami operator on functions and the Laplacian on powers of the cotangent bundle.…

This is a pedagogic introduction to certain aspects of inverse spectral theory for Schr\"{o}dinger operators and Jacobi matrices that revolves around my joint work with Fritz Gesztesy whose $70^{th}$ birthday we are honoring.

For a partially specified stochastic matrix, we consider the problem of completing it so as to minimize Kemeny's constant. We prove that for any partially specified stochastic matrix for which the problem is well-defined, there is a…

We prove two upper bounds for the Steklov eigenvalues of a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary. The first involves the volume of the manifold and of its boundary, as well as packing and volume growth constants of the boundary and its…

We solve the ten martini problem (Cantor spectrum with no condition on irrational frequencies, previously only established for the almost Mathieu) for a large class of one-frequency quasiperiodic operators, including nonperturbative…

For any pseudo-Riemannian hyperbolic space $X$ over $\mathbb{R},\mathbb{C},\mathbb{H}$ or $\mathbb{O}$, we show that the resolvent $R(z)=(\Box-z\operatorname{Id})^{-1}$ of the Laplace-Beltrami operator $-\Box$ on $X$ can be extended…

In this article we develop a systematic approach to treat Dirac operators $A_{\eta, \tau, \lambda}$ with singular electrostatic, Lorentz scalar, and anomalous magnetic interactions of strengths $\eta, \tau, \lambda \in \mathbb{R}$,…

In this article, we consider the asymptotic behaviour of the spectral function of Schr\"odinger operators on the real line. Let $H: L^2(\mathbb{R})\to L^2(\mathbb{R})$ have the form $$ H:=-\frac{d^2}{dx^2}+V, $$ where $V$ is a formally…

We study the inverse spectral problems of recovering Dirac-type functional-differential operator with two constant delays $a_1$ and $a_2$ not less than one-third of the interval. It has been proved that the operator can be recovered…

We consider the indefinite Sturm-Liouville differential expression \[\mathfrak{a}(f) := - \frac{1}{w}\left( \frac{1}{r} f' \right)',\] where $\mathfrak{a}$ is defined on a finite or infinite open interval $I$ with $0\in I$ and the…
