In this paper, we show the following: the Hausdorff dimension of the spectrum of period-doubling Hamiltonian is bigger than $log alpha/log 4$, where $alpha$ is the Golden number; there exists a dense uncountable subset of the spectrum such that for each energy in this set, the related trace orbit is unbounded, which is in contrast with a recent result of Carvalho (Nonlinearity 33, 2020); we give a complete characterization for the structure of gaps and the gap labelling of the spectrum. All of these results are consequences of an intrinsic coding of the spectrum we construct in this paper.

We construct multidimensional Schrodinger operators with a spectrum that has no gaps at high energies and that is nowhere dense at low energies. This gives the first example for which this widely expected topological structure of the spectrum in the class of uniformly recurrent Schrodinger operators, namely the coexistence of a half-line and a Cantor-type structure, can be confirmed. Our construction uses Schrodinger operators with separable potentials that decompose into one-dimensional potentials generated by the Fibonacci sequence and relies on the study of such operators via the trace map and the Fricke-Vogt invariant. To show that the spectrum contains a half-line, we prove an abstract Bethe--Sommerfeld criterion for sums of Cantor sets which may be of independent interest.
We add quantum fluctuations to a classical Hamiltonian model with synchronized period doubling in the thermodynamic limit, replacing the $N$ classical interacting angular momenta with quantum spins of size $l$. The full permutation symmetry of the Hamiltonian allows a mapping to a bosonic model and the application of exact diagonalization for quite large system size. {In the thermodynamic limit $Ntoinfty$ the model is described by a system of Gross-Pitaevski equations whose classical-chaos properties closely mirror the finite-$N$ quantum chaos.} For $Ntoinfty$, and $l$ finite, Rabi oscillations mark the absence of persistent period doubling, which is recovered for $ltoinfty$ with Rabi-oscillation frequency tending exponentially to 0. For the chosen initial conditions, we can represent this model in terms of Pauli matrices and apply the discrete truncated Wigner approximation. For finite $l$ this approximation reproduces no Rabi oscillations but correctly predicts the absence of period doubling. Quantitative agreement is recovered in the classical $ltoinfty$ limit.
We consider metric perturbations of the Landau Hamiltonian. We investigate the asymptotic behaviour of the discrete spectrum of the perturbed operator near the Landau levels, for perturbations with power-like decay, exponential decay or compact support.
We consider the Landau Hamiltonian perturbed by a long-range electric potential $V$. The spectrum of the perturbed operator consists of eigenvalue clusters which accumulate to the Landau levels. First, we obtain an estimate of the rate of the shrinking of these clusters to the Landau levels as the number of the cluster $q$ tends to infinity. Further, we assume that there exists an appropriate $V$, homogeneous of order $-rho$ with $rho in (0,1)$, such that $V(x) = V(x) + O(|x|^{-rho - epsilon})$, $epsilon > 0$, as $|x| to infty$, and investigate the asymptotic distribution of the eigenvalues within a given cluster, as $q to infty$. We obtain an explicit description of the asymptotic density of the eigenvalues in terms of the mean-value transform of $V$.
Consider a quantum particle trapped between a curved layer of constant width built over a complete, non-compact, $mathcal C^2$ smooth surface embedded in $mathbb{R}^3$. We assume that the surface is asymptotically flat in the sense that the second fundamental form vanishes at infinity, and that the surface is not totally geodesic. This geometric setting is known as a quantum layer. We consider the quantum particle to be governed by the Dirichlet Laplacian as Hamiltonian. Our work concerns the existence of bound states with energy beneath the essential spectrum, which implies the existence of discrete spectrum. We first prove that if the Gauss curvature is integrable, and the surface is weakly $kappa$-parabolic, then the discrete spectrum is non-empty. This result implies that if the total Gauss curvature is non-positive, then the discrete spectrum is non-empty. We next prove that if the Gauss curvature is non-negative, then the discrete spectrum is non-empty. Finally, we prove that if the surface is parabolic, then the discrete spectrum is non-empty if the layer is sufficiently thin.
