On optimal Wannier decay in dimension three

Simon Becker, Zhongkai Tao, Mengxuan Yang

For a Chern nontrivial Bloch bundle over the three torus, we construct an orthonormal Wannier basis with the optimal pointwise decay . All but one of the g…

Don't mind the gap: Absolutely Continuous Edge Spectrum in a Mobility Gap

Simon Becker, Mengxuan Yang

We study the edge spectrum of two-dimensional lattice Hamiltonians and magnetic Schrödinger operators in a mobility gap, an energy interval in which the bulk spectrum is potentiall…

Band edges of periodic Schrödinger operators are generically isolated and nondegenerate

Zhongkai Tao, Mengxuan Yang

For periodic Schrödinger operators with bounded real-valued potentials on with , we show that for generic potentials, each endpoint of every spectra…

Regularity of Second-Order Elliptic PDEs in Spectral Barron Spaces

Ziang Chen, Liqiang Huang, Mengxuan Yang +1

We establish a regularity theorem for second-order elliptic PDEs on in spectral Barron spaces. Under mild ellipticity and smallness assumptions, the solution gains…

From resolvent expansions at zero to long time wave expansions

T. J. Christiansen, K. Datchev, M. Yang

We prove a general abstract theorem deducing wave expansions as time goes to infinity from resolvent expansions as energy goes to zero, under an assumption of polynomial boundednes…

Low energy resolvent asymptotics of the multipole Aharonov--Bohm Hamiltonian

T. J. Christiansen, K. Datchev, M. Yang

We compute low energy asymptotics for the resolvent of the Aharonov--Bohm Hamiltonian with multiple poles for both integer and non-integer total fluxes. For integral total flux we…

Dirac cones and magic angles in the Bistritzer--MacDonald TBG Hamiltonian

Simon Becker, Solomon Quinn, Zhongkai Tao +2

We demonstrate the generic existence of Dirac cones in the full Bistritzer--MacDonald Hamiltonian for twisted bilayer graphene. Its complementary set, when Dirac cones are absent,…

Twisted TMDs in the small-angle limit: exponentially flat and trivial bands

Simon Becker, Mengxuan Yang

Recent experiments discovered fractional Chern insulator states at zero magnetic field in twisted bilayer MoTe [C23,Z23] and WSe [MD23]. In this article, we study the MacDo…

Mathematical results on the chiral model of twisted bilayer graphene (with an appendix by Mengxuan Yang and Zhongkai Tao)

Maciej Zworski, Mengxuan Yang, Zhongkai Tao

The study of twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) is a hot topic in condensed matter physics with special focus on {\em magic angles} of twisting at which TBG acquires unusual properties…

The Morse index theorem for mechanical systems with reflections

Jared Wunsch, Mengxuan Yang, Yuzhou Zou

We prove a Morse index theorem for action functionals on paths that are allowed to reflect at a hypersurface (either in the interior or at the boundary of a manifold). Both fixed a…

Flat Bands and High Chern Numbers in Twisted Multilayer Graphene

Mengxuan Yang

Motivated by recent Physical Review Letters of Wang-Liu and Ledwith-Vishwanath-Khalaf, we study Tarnopolsky-Kruchkov-Vishwanath chiral model of two sheets of -layer Bernal stack…

Resolvent estimates for the magnetic Hamiltonian with singular vector potentials and applications

Mengxuan Yang

For the magnetic Hamiltonian with singular vector potentials, we analytically continue the resolvent to a logarithmic neighborhood of the positive real axis and prove resolvent est…

New counterexamples to Strichartz estimates for the wave equation on a 2d model convex domain

Oana Ivanovici, Gilles Lebeau, Fabrice Planchon

We prove that the range of Strichartz estimates on a model 2D convex domain may be further restricted compared to the known counterexamples due to the first author. Our new family…

Propagation of polyhomogeneity, Diffraction and Scattering on Product Cones

Mengxuan Yang

We consider diffraction of waves on a product cone. We first show that diffractive waves enjoy a one-step polyhomogeneous asymptotic expansion, which is an improvement of Cheeger-T…

Scattering resonances on truncated cones

Dean Baskin, Mengxuan Yang

We consider the problem of finding the resonances of the Laplacian on truncated Riemannian cones. In a similar fashion to Cheeger--Taylor, we construct the resolvent and scattering…
