On the spectrum of Robin Laplacian in a planar waveguide

Alex Ferreira Rossini (2019)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

We consider the Laplace operator in a planar waveguide, i.e. an infinite two-dimensional straight strip of constant width, with Robin boundary conditions. We study the essential spectrum of the corresponding Laplacian when the boundary coupling function has a limit at infinity. Furthermore, we derive sufficient conditions for the existence of discrete spectrum.

On Threshold Eigenvalues and Resonances for the Linearized NLS Equation

V. Vougalter (2010)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

We prove the instability of threshold resonances and eigenvalues of the linearized NLS operator. We compute the asymptotic approximations of the eigenvalues appearing from the endpoint singularities in terms of the perturbations applied to the original NLS equation. Our method involves such techniques as the Birman-Schwinger principle and the Feshbach map.

Opening gaps in the spectrum of strictly ergodic Schrödinger operators

Artur Avila, Jairo Bochi, David Damanik (2012)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

We consider Schrödinger operators with dynamically defined potentials arising from continuous sampling along orbits of strictly ergodic transformations. The Gap Labeling Theorem states that the possible gaps in the spectrum can be canonically labelled by an at most countable set defined purely in terms of the dynamics. Which labels actually appear depends on the choice of the sampling function; the missing labels are said to correspond to collapsed gaps. Here we show that for any collapsed gap,...

Particle approximations of Lyapunov exponents connected to Schrödinger operators and Feynman–Kac semigroups

Pierre Del Moral, L. Miclo (2003)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

We present an interacting particle system methodology for the numerical solving of the Lyapunov exponent of Feynman–Kac semigroups and for estimating the principal eigenvalue of Schrödinger generators. The continuous or discrete time models studied in this work consists of N interacting particles evolving in an environment with soft obstacles related to a potential function V . These models are related to genetic algorithms and Moran type particle schemes. Their choice is not unique. We will examine...

Perron-Frobenius operators and the Klein-Gordon equation

Francisco Canto-Martín, Håkan Hedenmalm, Alfonso Montes-Rodríguez (2014)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

For a smooth curve Γ and a set Λ in the plane 2 , let A C ( Γ ; Λ ) be the space of finite Borel measures in the plane supported on Γ , absolutely continuous with respect to the arc length and whose Fourier transform vanishes on Λ . Following [12], we say that ( Γ , Λ ) is a Heisenberg uniqueness pair if A C ( Γ ; Λ ) = { 0 } . In the context of a hyperbola Γ , the study of Heisenberg uniqueness pairs is the same as looking for uniqueness sets Λ of a collection of solutions to the Klein-Gordon equation. In this work, we mainly address the...
