We prove that the Fermi surface of a connected doubly periodic self-adjoint discrete graph operator is irreducible at all but finitely many energies provided that the graph (1) can be drawn in the plane without crossing edges (2) has positive coupling coefficients (3) has two vertices per period. If positive is relaxed to complex, the only cases of reducible Fermi surface occur for the graph of the tetrakis square tiling, and these can be explicitly parameterized when the coupling coefficients are real. The irreducibility result applies to weighted graph Laplacians with positive weights.

We study the Bloch variety of discrete Schrodinger operators associated with a complex periodic potential and a general finite-range interaction, showing that the Bloch variety is irreducible for a wide class of lattice geometries in arbitrary dimens
ion. Examples include the triangular lattice and the extended Harper lattice.
We consider a family of periodic tight-binding models (combinatorial graphs) that have the minimal number of links between copies of the fundamental domain. For this family we establish a local condition of second derivative type under which the crit
ical points of the dispersion relation can be recognized as global maxima or minima. Under the additional assumption of time-reversal symmetry, we show that any local extremum of a dispersion band is in fact its global extremum if the dimension of the periodicity group is three or less, or (in any dimension) if the critical point in question is a symmetry point of the Floquet--Bloch family with respect to complex conjugation. We demonstrate that our results are nearly optimal with a number of examples.
This work constructs a class of non-symmetric periodic Schrodinger operators on metric graphs (quantum graphs) whose Fermi, or Floquet, surface is reducible. The Floquet surface at an energy level is an algebraic set that describes all complex wave v
ectors admissible by the periodic operator at the given energy. The graphs in this study are obtained by coupling two identical copies of a periodic quantum graph by edges to form a bilayer graph. Reducibility of the Floquet surface for all energies ensues when the coupling edges have potentials belonging to the same asymmetry class. The notion of asymmetry class is defined in this article through the introduction of an entire spectral A-function $a(lambda)$ associated with a potential--two potentials belong to the same asymmetry class if their A-functions are identical. Symmetric potentials correspond to $a(lambda)equiv0$. If the potentials of the connecting edges belong to different asymmetry classes, then typically the Floquet surface is not reducible. An exception occurs when two copies of certain bipartite graphs are coupled; the Floquet surface in this case is always reducible. This includes AA-stacked bilayer graphene.
We consider the inverse scattering on the quantum graph associated with the hexagonal lattice. Assuming that the potentials on the edges are compactly supported and symmetric, we show that the S-matrix for all energies in any given open set in the continuous spectrum determines the potentials.
We prove Anderson localization at the internal band-edges for periodic magnetic Schr{o}dinger operators perturbed by random vector potentials of Anderson-type. This is achieved by combining new results on the Lifshitz tails behavior of the integrated
density of states for random magnetic Schr{o}dinger operators, thereby providing the initial length-scale estimate, and a Wegner estimate, for such models.
