Abstract:Using control of the growth of the transfer matrices, wediscuss the spectral analysis of continuum and discrete half-line Schrödinger operators with slowly decaying potentials. Among our results we show if , where W has compact support and , then H has purely a.c. (resp. purely s.c.) spectrum on (0,∞) if ). For λn{-1/2}an potentials, where an are independent, identically distributed random variables with E(an) = 0, E(a2n)=1, and λ < 2, we find singular continuous spectrum with…

We provide a general lower bound on the dynamics of one dimensional Schrödinger operators in terms of transfer matrices. In particular it yields a non trivial lower bound on the transport exponents

For one-dimensional Schrodinger operators with potentials q subject to ∑n=−∞∞(∫nn+1|q(x)|dx)2<∞, we prove that the absolutely continuous spectrum is [0,∞), extending the 1999 result due to

Let H=−∂x2+V(x) be a properly defined Schrodinger operator on L2(R) with real potentials of the form V(x)=q(x)+p′(x) (the derivative is understood in the distributional sense) with some p,q∊L2(R). We

We construct examples of potentials V (x) satisfying |V (x)| ≤ h(x) 1+x , where the function h(x) is growing arbitrarily slowly, such that the corresponding Schrödinger operator has imbedded singular

If V is in L, virtually any perturbation technique allows one to control u (and, in fact, to show that all solutions of (1) are bounded as x → ∞). We are interested in cases where V is not L but is
