Almost Mathieu Operator

AbstractWe consider separable 2D discrete Schrödinger operators generated by 1D almost Mathieu operators. For fixed Diophantine frequencies, we prove that for sufficiently small couplings the spectrum must be an interval. This complements a result by J. Bourgain establishing that for fixed couplings the spectrum has gaps for some (positive measure) Diophantine frequencies. Our result generalizes to separable multidimensional discrete Schrödinger operators generated by 1D quasiperiodic operators whose potential is analytic and whose frequency is Diophantine. The proof is based on the study of the thickness of the spectrum of the almost Mathieu operator and utilizes the Newhouse Gap Lemma on sums of Cantor sets.

Abstract We consider a family of strongly-asymmetric unimodal maps $$\{f_t\}_{t\in [0,1]}$$ { f t } t ∈ [ 0 , 1 ] of the form $$f_t=t\cdot f$$ f t = t · f where $$f:[0,1]\rightarrow [0,1]$$ f : [ 0 , 1 ] → [ 0 , 1 ] is unimodal, $$f(0)=f(1)=0$$ f ( 0 ) = f ( 1 ) = 0 , $$f(c)=1$$ f ( c ) = 1 is of the form and $$\begin{aligned} f(x)=\left\{ \begin{array}{ll} 1-K_-|x-c|+o(|x-c|)&{} \text{ for } x<c, \\ 1-K_+|x-c|^\beta + o(|x-c|^\beta ) &{} \text{ for } x>c, \end{array}\right. \end{aligned}$$ f ( x ) = 1 - K - | x - c | + o ( | x - c | ) for x < c , 1 - K + | x - c | β + o ( | x - c | β ) for x > c , where we assume that $$\beta >1$$ β > 1 . We show that such a family contains a Feigenbaum–Coullet–Tresser $$2^\infty $$ 2 ∞ map, and develop a renormalization theory for these maps. The scalings of the renormalization intervals of the $$2^\infty $$ 2 ∞ map turn out to be super-exponential and non-universal (i.e. to depend on the map) and the scaling-law is different for odd and even steps of the renormalization. The conjugacy between the attracting Cantor sets of two such maps is smooth if and only if some invariant is satisfied. We also show that the Feigenbaum–Coullet–Tresser map does not have wandering intervals, but surprisingly we were only able to prove this using our rather detailed scaling results.
