Korotyaev EL, Laptev A, 2017, Trace formulas for a discrete Schrodinger operator, Functional Analysis and Its Applications, Vol: 51, Pages: 225-229, ISSN: 0016-2663

The Schrödinger operator with complex decaying potential on a lattice is considered. Trace formulas are derived on the basis of classical results of complex analysis. These formulas are applied to obtain global estimates of all zeros of the Fredholm determinant in terms of the potential.

Laptev A, Sasane SM, 2017, Perturbations of embedded eigenvalues for a magnetic Schrodinger operator on a cylinder, Journal of Mathematical Physics, Vol: 58, ISSN: 0022-2488

Perturbation problems for operators with embedded eigenvalues are generally challenging since the embedded eigenvalues cannot be separated from the rest of the spectrum. In this paper, we study a perturbation problem for embedded eigenvalues for a magnetic Schrödinger operator, when the underlying domain is a cylinder. The magnetic potential is C2 with an algebraic decay rate as the unbounded variable of the cylinder tends to ±∞. In particular, no analyticity of the magnetic potential is assumed. We also assume that the embedded eigenvalue of the unperturbed problem is not the square of an integer, thus avoiding the thresholds of the continuous spectrum of the unperturbed operator. We show that the set of nearby potentials, for which a simple embedded eigenvalue persists, forms a smooth manifold of finite codimension.

We consider Zaremba type boundary value problem for the Laplace operator in the unit circle on the complex plane. Using the theorem on the exponential representation for solutions to equations with constant coefficients we indicate a way to find eigenvalues of the problem and to construct its eigenfunctions.

For an arbitrary open, nonempty, bounded set , , and sufficiently smooth coefficients , we consider the closed, strictly positive, higher-order differential operator in defined on , associated with the differential expression (equations missing) and its Krein–von Neumann extension in . Denoting by , , the eigenvalue counting function corresponding to the strictly positive eigenvalues of , we derive the bound (equations missing)where (with ) is connected to the eigenfunction expansion of the self-adjoint operator in defined on , corresponding to .

Laptev A, Schimmer L, Takhtajan LA, 2016, Weyl type asymptotics and bounds for the eigenvalues of functional-difference operators for mirror curves, Geometric and Functional Analysis, Vol: 26, Pages: 288-305, ISSN: 1420-8970

We investigate Weyl type asymptotics of functional-difference operators associated to mirror curves of special del Pezzo Calabi-Yau threefolds. These operators are H(ζ)=U+U−1+V+ζV−1H(ζ)=U+U−1+V+ζV−1 and Hm,n=U+V+q−mnU−mV−nHm,n=U+V+q−mnU−mV−n, where UU and VV are self-adjoint Weyl operators satisfying UV=q2VUUV=q2VU with q=eiπb2q=eiπb2, b>0b>0 and ζ>0ζ>0, m,n∈Nm,n∈N. We prove that H(ζ)H(ζ) and Hm,nHm,n are self-adjoint operators with purely discrete spectrum on L2(R)L2(R). Using the coherent state transform we find the asymptotical behaviour for the Riesz mean ∑j≥1(λ−λj)+∑j≥1(λ−λj)+ as λ→∞λ→∞ and prove the Weyl law for the eigenvalue counting function N(λ)N(λ) for these operators, which imply that their inverses are of trace class.

Ilyin AA, Laptev AA, 2015, Lieb-Thirring inequalities on the torus, Sbornik: Mathematics, Vol: 207, Pages: 1410-1434, ISSN: 1064-5616

We consider the Lieb-Thirring inequalities on the $d$-dimensional torus with arbitrary periods. In the space of functions with zero average with respect to the shortest coordinate we prove the Lieb-Thirring inequalities for the $\gamma$-moments of the negative eigenvalues with constants independent of ratio of the periods. Applications to the attractors of the damped Navier-Stokes system are given.

In this paper we study the best constant in a Hardy inequality for the p-Laplace operator on convex domains with Robin boundary conditions. We show, in particular, that the best constant equals ((p−1)/p)p whenever Dirichlet boundary conditions are imposed on a subset of the boundary of non-zero measure. We also discuss some generalizations to non-convex domains.

Ilyin A, Laptev A, Zelik S, 2014, Sharp interpolation inequalities for discrete operators and applications, Bulletin of Mathematical Sciences, Vol: 5, Pages: 19-57, ISSN: 1664-3615

We consider interpolation inequalities for imbeddings of the l2-sequencespaces over d-dimensional lattices into the l∞0 spaces written as interpolation inequalitybetween the l2-norm of a sequence and its difference. A general method is developedfor finding sharp constants, extremal elements and correction terms in this type ofinequalities.

his paper is devoted to one-dimensional interpolation Gagliardo–Nirenberg–Sobolev inequalities. We study how various notions of duality, transport and monotonicity of functionals along flows defined by some non-linear diffusion equations apply.We start by reducing the inequality to a much simpler dual variational problem using mass transportation theory. Our second main result is devoted to the construction of a Lyapunov functional associated with a non-linear diffusion equation, that provides an alternative proof of the inequality. The key observation is that the inequality on the line is equivalent to Sobolev's inequality on the sphere, at least when the dimension is an integer, or to the critical interpolation inequality for the ultraspherical operator in the general case. The time derivative of the functional along the flow is itself very interesting. It explains the machinery of some rigidity estimates for non-linear elliptic equations and shows how eigenvalues of a linearized problem enter into the computations. Notions of gradient flows are then discussed for various notions of distances.Throughout this paper, we shall deal with two classes of inequalities corresponding either to p>2p>2 or to 1<p<21<p<2. The algebraic part in the computations is very similar in both cases, although the case 1<p<21<p<2 is definitely less standard.

Dolbeault J, Esteban MJ, Laptev A, 2014, Spectral estimates on the sphere, Analysis & PDE, Vol: 7, Pages: 435-460, ISSN: 1948-206X

In this article we establish optimal estimates for the first eigenvalue of Schrödinger operators on the dd-dimensional unit sphere. These estimates depend on LpLp norms of the potential, or of its inverse, and are equivalent to interpolation inequalities on the sphere. We also characterize a semiclassical asymptotic regime and discuss how our estimates on the sphere differ from those on the Euclidean space.

In this paper we obtain sharp Lieb–Thirring inequalities for a Schrödingeroperator on semiaxis with a matrix potential and show how they can be used to otherrelated problems.

This note is devoted to optimal spectral estimates for Schrödinger operators on compact connected Riemannian manifolds without boundary. These estimates are based on the use of appropriate interpolation inequalities and on some recent rigidity results for nonlinear elliptic equations on those manifolds.

We show that the non-embedded eigenvalues of the Dirac operatoron the real line with complex mass and non-Hermitian potentialV lie in the disjoint union of two disks, provided that the L1-norm of Vis bounded from above by the speed of light times the reduced Planckconstant. The result is sharp; moreover, the analogous sharp result forthe Schr¨odinger operator, originally proved by Abramov, Aslanyan andDavies, emerges in the nonrelativistic limit. For massless Dirac operators,the condition on V implies the absence of non-real eigenvalues. Our resultsare further generalized to potentials with slower decay at infinity. Asan application, we determine bounds on resonances and embedded eigenvaluesof Dirac operators with Hermitian dilation-analytic potentials.

Laptev A, Solomyak M, 2013, On spectral estimates for two-dimensional Schrodinger operators, Journal of Spectral Theory, Vol: 3, Pages: 505-515, ISSN: 1664-0403

For the two-dimensional Schrödinger operator HαV=−Δ−αV, V≥0HαV=−Δ−αV, V≥0, we study the behavior of the number N−(HαV)N−(HαV) of its negative eigenvalues (bound states), as the coupling parameter αα tends to infinity. A wide class of potentials is described, for which N−(HαV)N−(HαV) has the semi-classical behavior, i.e. N−(HαV)=O(α)N−(HαV)=O(α). For the potentials from this class, the necessary and sufficient condition is found for the validity of the Weyl asymptotic law.

For a two-dimensional Schrödinger operatorHαV = −−αV with the radialpotential V(x) = F(|x|), F(r) ≥ 0, we study the behavior of the number N−(HαV )of its negative eigenvalues, as the coupling parameter α tends to infinity. We obtain thenecessary and sufficient conditions for the semi-classical growth N−(HαV ) = O(α)and for the validity of the Weyl asymptotic law.

Kovarik H, Laptev A, 2012, Hardy inequalities for robin laplacians, Journal of Functional Analysis, Vol: 262, Pages: 4972-4985, ISSN: 1096-0783

In this paper we establish a Hardy inequality for Laplace operators with Robin boundary conditions. For convex domains, in particular, we show explicitly how the corresponding Hardy weight depends on the coefficient of the Robin boundary conditions. We also study several extensions to non-convex and unbounded domains.

We study the eigenvalues of the Dirichlet Laplace operator on an arbitrary bounded, open set in RdRd, d≥2d≥2. In particular, we derive upper bounds on Riesz means of order σ≥3/2σ≥3/2, that improve the sharp Berezin inequality by a negative second term. This remainder term depends on geometric properties of the boundary of the set and reflects the correct order of growth in the semi-classical limit.Under certain geometric conditions these results imply new lower bounds on individual eigenvalues, which improve the Li–Yau inequality.
