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,...
