Review text

The author considers a discrete one-dimensional Schrödinger operator with an analytic potential. A Diophantine condition upon the frequencies is assumed. The first result is a reduction theorem for the first-order system obtained from the initial Schrödinger equation. This result resembles recent theorems for the continuous time equations [cf.\ \textit{L.~H.\ Eliasson}, Proc.\ Symp.\ Pure Math.\ 69, 679--705 (2001; Zbl 1015.34028)]. Then the author considers the density of states, proves its Hölder-\(\frac{1}2\) property, and shows that the length of the gaps has a sub-exponential estimate connected with the gap-labelling theorem.
