We review recent developments in the spectral theory of continuum one-dimensional quasicystals, yielding purely singular continuous spectrum for these Schrödinger operators. Allowing measures as potentials we can generalize some results to very singular potentials, including Kronig-Penney type models.

We introduce a topology ${\cal T}$ on the space $U$ of uniformly discrete subsets of the Euclidean space. Assume that $S$ in $U$ admits a unique autocorrelation measure. The diffraction measure of $S$ is purely atomic if and only if $S$ is almost periodic in $(U,{\cal T})$. This result relates idealized quasicrystals to almost periodicity. In the context of ergodic point processes, the autocorrelation measure is known to exist. Then, the diffraction measure is purely atomic if and only if the dynamical system has a pure point spectrum. As an illustration, we study deformed model sets.
We review the recent developments in the spectral theory of discrete one-dimensional Schrödinger operators with potentials generated by substitutions and circle maps. We discuss how occurrences of local repetitive structures allow for estimates of generalized eigenfunctions. Among the recent applications of this general approach are almost sure and uniform results on the absence of eigenvalues as well as continuity of the spectral measures with respect to Hausdorff measures.
We consider discrete one-dimensional Schrödinger operators with quasi-Sturmian potentials. We present a new approach to the trace map dynamical system which is independent of the initial conditions and establish a characterization of the spectrum in terms of bounded trace map orbits. Using this, it is shown that the operators have purely singular continuous spectrum and their spectrum is a Cantor set of Lebesgue measure zero. We also exhibit a subclass having purely $α$-continuous spectrum. All these results hold uniformly on the hull generated by a given potential.
We study measures on the real line and present various versions of what it means for such a measure to take only finitely many values. We then study perturbations of the Laplacian by such measures. Using Kotani-Remling theory, we show that the resulting operators have empty absolutely continuous spectrum if the measures are not periodic. When combined with Gordon type arguments this allows us to prove purely singular continuous spectrum for some continuum models of quasicrystals.
We study the spectral properties of discrete one-dimensional Schrödinger operators with Sturmian potentials. It is shown that the point spectrum is always empty. Moreover, for rotation numbers with bounded density, we establish purely $α$-continuous spectrum, uniformly for all phases. The proofs rely on the unique decomposition property of Sturmian potentials, a mass-reproduction technique based upon a Gordon-type argument, and on the Jitomirskaya-Last extension of the Gilbert-Pearson theory of subordinacy.
We prove uniform absence of point spectrum for CMV operators corresponding to the period doubling subshift. We also prove almost sure absence of point spectrum for CMV operators corresponding to a class of Sturmian subshifts. Lastly, we prove almost sure absence of point spectrum for CMV operators corresponding to some subshifts generated by a coding of a rotation.
We prove an averaging formula for the derivative of the absolutely continuous part of the density of states measure for an ergodic family of CMV matrices. As a consequence, we show that the spectral type of such a family is almost surely purely absolutely continuous if and only if the density of states is absolutely continuous and the Lyapunov exponent vanishes almost everywhere with respect to the same. Both of these results are CMV operator analogues of theorems obtained by Kotani for Schrödinger operators.
A tree-strip of finite cone type is the product of a tree of finite cone type with a finite set. We consider random Schrödinger operators on these tree strips, similar to the Anderson model. We prove that for small disorder the spectrum is almost surely, purely, absolutely continuous in a certain set.
We consider multi-type Galton Watson trees that are close to a tree of finite cone type in distribution. Moreover, we impose that each vertex has at least one forward neighbor. Then, we show that the spectrum of the Laplace operator exhibits almost surely a purely absolutely continuous component which is included in the absolutely continuous spectrum of the tree of finite cone type.
We study the multi-dimensional operator $(H_x u)_n=\sum_{|m-n|=1}u_{m}+f(T^n(x))u_n$, where $T$ is the shift of the torus $\T^d$. When $d=2$, we show the spectrum of $H_x$ is almost surely purely continuous for a.e. $α$ and generic continuous potentials. When $d\geq 3$, the same result holds for frequencies under an explicit arithmetic criterion. We also show that general multi-dimensional operators with measurable potentials do not have eigenvalue for generic $α$.
We consider discrete one-dimensional random Schroedinger operators with decaying matrix-valued, independent potentials. We show that if the l^2-norm of this potential has finite expectation value with respect to the product measure then almost surely the Schroedinger operator has an interval of purely absolutely continuous (ac) spectrum. We apply this result to Schroedinger operators on a strip. This work provides a new proof and generalizes a result obtained by Delyon, Simon, and Souillard.

We are interested in the nature of the spectrum of the one-dimensional Schrödinger operator $$ - \frac{d^2}{dx^2}-Fx + \sum_{n \in \mathbb{Z}}g_n δ(x-n) \qquad\text{in } L^2(\mathbb{R}) $$ with $F>0$ and two different choices of the coupling constants $\{g_n\}_{n\in \mathbb{Z}}$. In the first model $g_n \equiv λ$ and we prove that if $F\in π^2 \mathbb{Q}$ then the spectrum is $\mathbb{R}$ and is furthermore absolutely continuous away from an explicit discrete set of points. In the second model the $g_n$ are independent random variables with mean zero and variance $λ^2$. Under certain assumptio…
