Abstract: Commutator methods are applied to get limiting absorption principles for the discrete standard and Molchanov-Vainberg Schr"odinger operators $H_{mathrmstd}=Delta+V$ and $H_{mathrmMV}=D+V$ on $el{l}^2(mathbb{Z}^d)$, with emphasis on $d=1,2,3$. Considered are electric potentials $V$ satisfying a long range condition of the type: $V-a{u}_j^{kappa}V$ decays appropriately for some $kappainmathbbN$ and all $1leqjleqd$, where $a{u}_j^{kappa}V$ is the potential shifted by $kappa$ units on the $j^{extth}$ coordinate. More comprehensive results are obtained for specific small values of $kappa$, such as $kappa=1,2,3,4$. In this article, we work in a simplified framework in which the main takeaway appears to be the existence of bands where a limiting absorption principle holds, and hence absolutely continuous (a.c.) spectrum, for $kappa>1$ and $Delta$ (resp. $kappa>2$ and $D$). Other decay conditions for $V$ arise from an isomorphism between $Delta$ and $D$ in dimension 2. Oscillating potentials are natural examples in application.
