Bohr--Sommerfeld rules for systems

Simon Becker, Setsuro Fujiié, Jens Wittsten

We present a complete, self-contained formulation of the Bohr--Sommerfeld quantization rule for a semiclassical self-adjoint system on the real line, arising from a si…

Warehouse storage and retrieval optimization via clustering, dynamical systems modeling, and GPU-accelerated routing

Magnus Bengtsson, Jens Wittsten, Jonas Waidringer

This paper introduces a warehouse optimization procedure aimed at enhancing the efficiency of product storage and retrieval. By representing product locations and order flows withi…

Discrete vs. continuous in the semiclassical limit

Simon Becker, Jens Wittsten, Maciej Zworski

We compare the bottom of the spectrum of discrete and continuous Schrödinger operators with periodic potentials with barriers at the boundaries of their fundamental domains. Our re…

Chiral limit of twisted trilayer graphene

Simon Becker, Tristan Humbert, Jens Wittsten +1

We initiate the mathematical study of the Bistritzer-MacDonald Hamiltonian for twisted trilayer graphene in the chiral limit (and beyond). We develop a spectral theoretic approach…

Hofstadter butterflies and metal/insulator transitions for moiré heterostructures

Simon Becker, Lingrui Ge, Jens Wittsten

We consider a tight-binding model recently introduced by Timmel and Mele for strained moiré heterostructures. We consider two honeycomb lattices to which layer antisymmetric shear…

Semiclassical quantization conditions in strained moiré lattices

Simon Becker, Jens Wittsten

In this article we generalize the Bohr-Sommerfeld rule for scalar symbols at a potential well to matrix-valued symbols having eigenvalues that may coalesce precisely at the bottom…

Uniqueness theorems for weighted harmonic functions in the upper half-plane

Anders Olofsson, Jens Wittsten

We consider a class of weighted harmonic functions in the open upper half-plane known as -harmonic functions. Of particular interest is the uniqueness problem for such functions…

Finite-difference modeling of 2-D wave propagation in the vicinity of dipping interfaces: a comparison of anti-aliasing and equivalent medium approaches

Erik F. M. Koene, Jens Wittsten, Johan O. A. Robertsson

Finite-difference (FD) modeling of seismic waves in the vicinity of dipping interfaces gives rise to artifacts. Examples are phase and amplitude errors, as well as staircase diffra…

Quenched limit theorems for random U(1) extensions of expanding maps

Yong Moo Chung, Yushi Nakano, Jens Wittsten

The Lyapunov spectra of random U(1) extensions of expanding maps on the torus were investigated in our previous work [NW2015]. Using the result, we extend the recent spectral appro…

Spectral characterization of magic angles in twisted bilayer graphene

Simon Becker, Mark Embree, Jens Wittsten +1

Twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) has been experimentally observed to exhibit almost flat bands when the twisting occurs at certain magic angles. In this letter, we report new results…

Complex eigenvalue splitting for the Dirac operator

Koki Hirota, Jens Wittsten

We analyze the eigenvalue problem for the semiclassical Dirac (or Zakharov-Shabat) operator on the real line with general analytic potential. We provide Bohr-Sommerfeld quantizatio…

Removing numerical dispersion from linear evolution equations

Jens Wittsten, Erik F. M. Koene, Fredrik Andersson +1

We describe a method for removing the numerical errors in the modeling of linear evolution equations that are caused by approximating the time derivative by a finite difference ope…

Quantization conditions of eigenvalues for semiclassical Zakharov-Shabat systems on the circle

Setsuro Fujiié, Jens Wittsten

Bohr-Sommerfeld type quantization conditions of semiclassical eigenvalues for the non-selfadjoint Zakharov-Shabat operator on the circle are derived using an exact WKB method. The…
