Limiting absorption principle for discrete Schrödinger operators with a Wigner-von Neumann potential and a slowly decaying potential (Q2223546)

Using the framework of weighted Mourre theory, a limiting absorption principle for discrete Schrödinger operators is obtained. The result holds for Schrödinger operators \(H = \Delta + V + W\) in \(\ell^2 (\mathbb{Z}^d)\), \(d \geq 1\), satisfying the following assumptions: \(\Delta\) is the discrete Laplacian on \(\mathbb{Z}^d\), \(W\) is a Wigner--von Neumann potential \[ W (n) = w \sin (k (n_1 + \dots + n_d)) |n|^{-1}, \quad n \in \mathbb{Z}^d, \] where \(\omega \in \mathbb{R}\) and \(k \in (0, 2 \pi) \setminus \{\pi\}\), and \(V\) is a bounded real-valued function satisfying asymptotics \[ V (n) = O \left( \ln_{m+1}^{-q} (|n|) \prod_{k = 0}^m \ln_k^{-2} (|n|) \right), \quad |n| \to \infty, \] and \[ n_i (V - \tau_i V) (n) = O \left( \ln_{m+1}^{-q} (|n|) \prod_{k = 0}^m \ln_k^{-2} (|n|) \right), \quad |n| \to \infty, \quad 1 \leq i \leq d, \] where \(m \in \mathbb{N}\) and \(q > 2\). Here \[ (\tau_i V) := V (n_1, \dots, n_i - 1, \dots, n_d), \quad n \in \mathbb{Z}^d. \]
