    An Algorithm for Finding the Periodic Potential of the Three-dimensional Schrodinger Operator from the Spectral Invariants

    In this paper, we investigate the three-dimensional Schrodinger operator with a periodic, relative to a lattice {\Omega} of R3, potential q. A special class V of the periodic potentials is constructed, which is easily and constructively determined from the spectral invariants. First, we give an algorithm for the unique determination of the potential q in V of the three-dimensional Schrodinger operator from the spectral invariants that were determined constructively from the given Bloch eigenvalues. Then we consider the stability of the algorithm with respect to the spectral invariants and Bloch eigenvalues. Finally, we prove that there are no other periodic potentials in the set of large class of functions whose Bloch eigenvalues coincides with the Bloch eigenvalues of q in V

    A matrix model for simple Hurwitz numbers, and topological recursion

    Full text link
    We introduce a new matrix model representation for the generating function of simple Hurwitz numbers. We calculate the spectral curve of the model and the associated symplectic invariants developed in [Eynard-Orantin]. As an application, we prove the conjecture proposed by Bouchard and Marino, relating Hurwitz numbers to the spectral invariants of the Lambert curve exp(x)=y exp(-y).Comment: 24 pages, 3 figure

    Spectral Invariants in Rabinowitz Floer homology and Global Hamiltonian perturbations

    Get PDF
    Spectral invariant were introduced in Hamiltonian Floer homology by Viterbo, Oh, and Schwarz. We extend this concept to Rabinowitz Floer homology. As an application we derive new quantitative existence results for leaf-wise intersections. The importance of spectral invariants for the presented application is that spectral invariants allow us to derive existence of critical points of the Rabinowitz action functional even in degenerate situations where the functional is not Morse.Comment: 29 page

    Heat Determinant on Manifolds

    Full text link
    We introduce and study new invariants associated with Laplace type elliptic partial differential operators on manifolds. These invariants are constructed by using the off-diagonal heat kernel; they are not pure spectral invariants, that is, they depend not only on the eigenvalues but also on the corresponding eigenfunctions in a non-trivial way. We compute the first three low-order invariants explicitly.Comment: 41 page

    Three-Dimensional Integrable Models and Associated Tangle Invariants

    Get PDF
    In this paper we show that the Boltzmann weights of the three-dimensional Baxter-Bazhanov model give representations of the braid group, if some suitable spectral limits are taken. In the trigonometric case we classify all possible spectral limits which produce braid group representations. Furthermore we prove that for some of them we get cyclotomic invariants of links and for others we obtain tangle invariants generalizing the cyclotomic ones.Comment: Number of pages: 21, Latex fil
