Solutions, spectrum, and dynamics for Schrödinger operators on infinite domains (Q1975648): Difference between revisions

The authors investigate the Schrödinger operator on some connected infinite domain \(\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^d\) with a smooth boundary and with Dirichlet boundary conditions on \(\partial\Omega\). The first main result shows that certain upper bounds on the rate of growth of \(L^r\) norms of generalized eigenfunctions over expanding balls imply certain minimal singularity of the spectral measures. From this follow new criteria for the existence of the absolutely continuous spectrum or the singular continuous spectrum of given dimensional characteristics. The second major result establishes a fundamental relation between generalized eigenfunctions and the behavior of the time-averaged moments of the position operator \(X\) under the Schrödinger evolution.
