LpL^p-approximation of the integrated density of states for Schr\"odinger operators with finite local complexity

We study spectral properties of Schr\"odinger operators on \RR^d. The electromagnetic potential is assumed to be determined locally by a colouring of the lattice points in \ZZ^d, with the property that frequencies of finite patterns are well defined. We prove that the integrated density of states (spectral distribution function) is approximated by its finite volume analogues, i.e.the normalised eigenvalue counting functions. The convergence holds in the space $L^p(I)$ where $I$ is any finite energy interval and $1\leq p< \infty$ is arbitrary.Comment: 15 pages; v2 has minor fixe

On Gaussian multiplicative chaos

We propose a new definition of the Gaussian multiplicative chaos (GMC) and an approach based on the relation of subcritical GMC to randomized shifts of a Gaussian measure. Using this relation we prove general uniqueness and convergence results for subcritical GMC that hold for Gaussian fields with arbitrary covariance kernels.Comment: 34 pages.
