Abstract: We prove an upper and a lower bound on the rank of the spectral projections of the Schr"odinger operator $-Delta+V$ in terms of the volume of the sublevel sets of an effective potential $frac1u$. Here, $u$ is the `landscape function' of (David, G., Filoche, M., & Mayboroda, S. (2021) Advances in Mathematics, 390, 107946) namely the solution of $(-Delta+V)u=1$ in $mathbb{R}^d$. We prove the result for non-negative potentials satisfying a Kato and doubling condition, in all spatial dimensions, in infinite volume, and show that no coarse graining is required. Our result yields in particular a necessary and sufficient condition for discreteness of the spectrum.
