We prove that 3-dimensional Schrodinger operator with slowly decaying potential has an absolutely continuous spectrum that fills the positive half-line. The asymptotics of Green's function is obtained as well.
The problem on the asymptotics for the solution of multidimensional nonlinear Boussinesq equation with respect to a small parameter $\ve$ is considered. The asymptotic expansion of the solution of this problem with respect to $\ve\to0$ for long times $t\sim {\cal O}(\ve^{-2})$ is constructed and justified. The leading terms of the asymptotic solution are defined from the multidimensional nonlinear Schrodinger equation and from the linear homogeneous wave equation.
We prove the complete asymptotic expansion of the spectral function (the integral kernel of the spectral projection) of a Schrodinger operator $H=-Δ+b$ acting in $R^d$ when the potential $b$ is real and either smooth periodic, or generic quasi-periodic (finite linear combination of exponentials), or belongs to a wide class of almost-periodic functions.
We prove that the multidimensional Schrödinger equation is exactly controllable in infinite time near any point which is a finite linear combination of eigenfunctions of the Schrödinger operator. We prove that, generically with respect to the potential, the linearized system is controllable in infinite time. Applying the inverse mapping theorem, we prove the controllability of the nonlinear system.
This paper blends two techniques recently developed in [2] and [3] to prove the presence of absolutely continuous spectrum for the multidimensional Schrodinger operator provided that the potential is summable over trajectory with positive probability. These trajectories are defined by Ito's equation and escape to infinity almost surely.
We consider scattering matrix for Schrödinger-type operators on $\mathbb{R}^d$ with perturbation $V(x)=O(\langle x\rangle^{-1})$ as $|x|\to\infty$. We show that the scattering matrix (with time-independent modifiers) is a pseudodifferential operator, and analyze its spectrum. We present examples of which the spectrum of the scattering matrices have dense point spectrum, and absolutely continuous spectrum, respectively.
In $L_2(\mathbb{R}^d)$, we consider an elliptic differential operator $\mathcal{A}_\varepsilon = - \operatorname{div} g(\mathbf{x}/\varepsilon) \nabla + \varepsilon^{-2} V(\mathbf{x}/\varepsilon)$, $ \varepsilon > 0$, with periodic coefficients. For the nonstationary Schrödinger equation with the Hamiltonian $\mathcal{A}_\varepsilon$, analogs of homogenization problems related to an arbitrary point of the dispersion relation of the operator $\mathcal{A}_1$ are studied (the so called high-energy homogenization). For the solutions of the Cauchy problems for these equations with special initial d…
The purpose of this paper is to prove that the spectrum of an isotropic Maxwell operator with electric permittivity and magnetic permeability that are periodic along certain directions and tending to a constant super-exponentially fast in the remaining directions is purely absolutely continuous. The basic technical tools is a new ``operatorial'' identity relating the Maxwell operator to a vector-valued Schrodinger operator. The analysis of the spectrum of that operator is then handled using ideas developed by the same authors in a previous paper.
We consider the multidimensional Borg-Levinson theorem of determining both the magnetic field $dA$ and the electric potential $V$, appearing in the Dirichlet realization of the magnetic Schrödinger operator $H=(-{\rm i}\nabla+A)^2+V$ on a bounded domain $Ω\subset\mathbb R^n$, $n\geq2$, from partial knowledge of the boundary spectral data of $H$. The full boundary spectral data are given by the set $\{(λ_{k},{\partial_νϕ_{k}}_{|\partialΩ}):\ k\geq1\}$, where $\{ λ_k:\ k\in \mathbb N^* \}$ is the non-decreasing sequence of eigenvalues of $H$, $\{ ϕ_k:\ k\in \mathbb N^* \}$ an associated Hilberti…
We prove the existence of ground state in a multidimensional nonlinear Schrodinger model of paraxial beam propagation in isotropic local media with saturable nonlinearity. Such ground states exist in the form of bright counterpropagating solitons. From the proof, a general threshold condition on the beam coupling constant for the existence of such fundamental solitons follows.
We prove that the spectrum of a Schrodinger operator that is periodic in certain directions and super-exponentially decaying in the others is purely absolutely continuous.
Using certain Ito's equation, we introduce the probability on the space of paths and show its relevance to the scattering properties of multidimensional Schrodinger operator. To relate the geometry of the support of potential to the spectral type we develop a special variant of Potential theory and prove some estimates on the modified Harmonic measure.
We study the Schrödinger operator $L=-Δ+V$ on a star-shaped domain $Ω$ in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with Lipschitz boundary $\partialΩ$. The operator is equipped with quite general Dirichlet- or Robin-type boundary conditions induced by operators between $H^{1/2}(\partialΩ)$ and $H^{-1/2}(\partialΩ)$, and the potential takes values in the set of symmetric $N\times N$ matrices. By shrinking the domain and rescaling the operator we obtain a path in the Fredholm-Lagrangian-Grassmannian of the subspace of $H^{1/2}(\partialΩ)\times H^{-1/2}(\partialΩ)$ corresponding to the given boundary condition. The path i…
Self-adjoint Schrödinger operators with $δ$ and $δ'$-potentials supported on a smooth compact hypersurface are defined explicitly via boundary conditions. The spectral properties of these operators are investigated, regularity results on the functions in their domains are obtained, and analogues of the Birman--Schwinger principle and a variant of Krein's formula are shown. Furthermore, Schatten--von Neumann type estimates for the differences of the powers of the resolvents of the Schrödinger operators with $δ$ and $δ'$-potentials, and the Schrödinger operator without a singular interaction are…
We show that the spectrum of a Schrödinger operator on $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\ge 3$, with a periodic smooth Riemannian metric, whose conformal multiple has a product structure with one Euclidean direction, and with a periodic electric potential in $L^{n/2}_{\text{loc}}(\mathbb{R}^n)$, is purely absolutely continuous. Previously known results in the case of a general metric are obtained in [12], see also [8], under the assumption that the metric, as well as the potential, are reflection symmetric.
We prove Strichartz estimates for the absolutely continuous evolution of a Schrödinger operator $H = (i\nabla + A)^2 + V$ in $\R^n$, $n > 2$. Both the magnetic and electric potentials are time-independent and satisfy pointwise polynomial decay bounds. The vector potential $A(x)$ is assumed to be continuous but need not possess any Sobolev regularity. This work is a refinement of previous methods, which required extra conditions on ${\rm div} A$ or $|\nabla|^{\frac12}A$ in order to place the first order part of the perturbation within a suitable class of pseudo-differential operators.
In 1974 Jürgen Moser has shown that the classical Moment Problem plays a fundamental role for the theory of completely integrable systems, by proving that the simplest case of the finite Toda lattice is described exhaustively in its terms. In particular, the Jacobi matrix defined by the Flaschka variables corresponds to the Schrödinger operator related to the Korteweg-de Vries operator. In the present paper we use a recent breakthrough in the area of the multidimensional Moment Problem in order to develop a multidimensional generalization of the finite Toda lattice. Our construction is based o…
Survey: In this paper I consider sharp spectral asymptotics for multidimensional magnetic Schrödinger operator with irregular coefficients with respect to two parameters -- semiclassical parameter $h$ and coupling parameter $μ$. There are few principally different cases, depending on dimension, rank of magnetic intensity matrix, relation between $h$ and $μ$ and some extra assumptions.
With derive sharp spectral asymptotics (with the remainder estimate $O(μ^{-1}h^{1-d}+μ^{\frac{d} {2}-1}h^{1-\frac{d}{2}})$ for $d$-dimensional Schrödinger operator with a strong magnetic field; here $h$ and $μ$ are Plank and binding constants respectively and magnetic intensity matrix has full rank at each point. In comparison with version 1 of 4.5 year ago this version contains more results (we also study some degenerations), improvements and some minor corrections.
We study the spectrum of Schrödinger operators with matrix valued potentials utilizing tools from infinite dimensional symplectic geometry. Using the spaces of abstract boundary values, we derive relations between the Morse and Maslov indices for a family of operators on a Hilbert space obtained by perturbing a given self-adjoint operator by a smooth family of bounded self-adjoint operators. The abstract results are applied to the Schrödinger operators with quasi-periodic, Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. In particular, we derive an analogue of the Morse-Smale Index Theorem for the m…
In this paper we consider linear, time dependent Schrödinger equations of the form ${\rm i} \partial_t ψ= K_0 ψ+ V(t) ψ$, where $K_0$ is a strictly positive selfadjoint operator with discrete spectrum and constant spectral gaps, and $V(t)$ a time periodic potential. We give sufficient conditions on $V(t)$ ensuring that $K_0+V (t)$ generates unbounded orbits. The main condition is that the resonant average of $V(t)$, namely the average with respect to the flow of $K_0$, has a nonempty absolutely continuous spectrum and fulfills a Mourre estimate. These conditions are stable under perturbations.…
