The spectral curve of a quaternionic holomorphic line bundle over a 2-torus

A conformal immersion of a 2-torus into the 4-sphere is characterized by an auxiliary Riemann surface, its spectral curve. This complex curve encodes the monodromies of a certain Dirac type operator on a quaternionic line bundle associated to the immersion. The paper provides a detailed description of the geometry and asymptotic behavior of the spectral curve. If this curve has finite genus the Dirichlet energy of a map from a 2-torus to the 2-sphere or the Willmore energy of an immersion from a 2-torus into the 4-sphere is given by the residue of a specific meromorphic differential on the curve. Also, the kernel bundle of the Dirac type operator evaluated over points on the 2-torus linearizes in the Jacobian of the spectral curve. Those results are presented in a geometric and self contained manner.Comment: 36 page

Generalized Weierstrass Relations and Frobenius reciprocity

This article investigates local properties of the further generalized Weierstrass relations for a spin manifold $S$ immersed in a higher dimensional spin manifold $M$ from viewpoint of study of submanifold quantum mechanics. We show that kernel of a certain Dirac operator defined over $S$, which we call submanifold Dirac operator, gives the data of the immersion. In the derivation, the simple Frobenius reciprocity of Clifford algebras $S$ and $M$ plays important roles.Comment: 17pages. to be published in Mathematical Physics, Analysis and Geometr

On Darboux-Treibich-Verdier potentials

It is shown that the four-parameter family of elliptic functions $$u_D(z)=m_0(m_0+1)\wp(z)+\sum_{i=1}^3 m_i(m_i+1)\wp(z-\omega_i)$$ introduced by Darboux and rediscovered a hundred years later by Treibich and Verdier, is the most general meromorphic family containing infinitely many finite-gap potentials.Comment: 8 page

On numerical study of the discrete spectrum of a two-dimensional Schrödinger operator with soliton potential

Abstract The discrete spectra of certain two-dimensional Schrödinger operators are numerically calculated. These operators are obtained by the Moutard transformation and have interesting spectral properties: their kernels are multi-dimensional and the deformations of potentials via the Novikov–Veselov equation (a two-dimensional generalization of the Korteweg–de Vries equation) lead to blowups. The calculations supply the numerical evidence for some statements about the integrable systems related to a 2D Schrödinger operator. The numerical scheme is applicable to a general 2D Schrödinger operator with fast decaying potential
