Abstract: In this article we consider asymptotics for the spectral function of Schr"odinger operators on the real line. Let $P:L^2(mathbbR)o{L}^2(mathbbR)$ have the form ${\displaystyle }$ P:=- frac{d^2}{dx^2}+W, ${\displaystyle }$ where $W$ is a self-adjoint first order differential operator with certain modified almost periodic structure. We show that the kernel of the spectral projector, $mathbb{1}_{(-infty,lambd{a}^2]}(P)$ has a full asymptotic expansion in powers of $lambda$. In particular, our class of potentials $W$ is stable under perturbation by formally self-adjoint first order differential operators with smooth, compactly supported coefficients. Moreover, it includes certain potentials with dense pure point spectrum. The proof combines the gauge transform methods of Parnovski-Shterenberg and Sobolev with Melrose's scattering calculus.

Review text

The abstract of the paper itself includes the most accurate and complete explanation about the content of the article under review. Here we quote it in full: ``In this article we consider asymptotics for the spectral function of Schrödinger operators on the real line. Let \(P\colon L^2(\mathbb{R})\to L^2(\mathbb{R})\) have the form \(P:=-\frac{d^2}{dx^2}+W\), where \(W\) is a self-adjoint first order differential operator with certain modified almost periodic structure. We show that the kernel of the spectral projector, \(\mathbf{1}_{(-\infty,\lambda^2]}(P)\) has a full asymptotic expansion in powers of \(\lambda\). In particular, our class of potentials \(W\) is stable under perturbation by formally self-adjoint first order differential operators with smooth, compactly supported coefficients. Moreover, the class of potentials includes certain potentials with dense pure point spectrum. The proof combines the gauge transform methods of Parnovski-Shterenberg and Sobolev with Melrose's scattering calculus.
