Learned Control Variates for Rare Grid-Outage Estimation at Electric Vehicle Charging Stations

Sulyman Iyanda, Mansur Arief

Public charging of electric vehicles (EVs) adds a large and synchronized load to the distribution feeders. In most networks, it is rare to overload a feeder at the same time. When…

On the identification of certain classes of gap-rich sets

Jake Fillman, Yi-Sheng Lim

The notion of gap-richness was recently introduced to quantify the ability to open spectral gaps for periodic word models by arbitrarily small perturbations and is useful in the co…

Continuum Fibonacci Schrödinger Operators in the Strongly Coupled Regime

David Damanik, Mark Embree, Jake Fillman +2

We study Schrödinger operators on the real line whose potentials are generated by the Fibonacci substitution sequence and a rule that replaces symbols by compactly supported potent…

Absence of ballistic motion and presence of almost-ballistic motion for unitary operators with pure point spectrum

Christopher Cedzich, Jake Fillman, Luis Velázquez

We adapt two results of Simon and collaborators to the setting of discrete-time unitary dynamics. We show that pure point spectrum precludes ballistic motion, and exhibit a family…

Measure of the spectra of periodic graph operators in the large-coupling limit

Jake Fillman

We derive a sharp criterion on the spectra of periodic discrete Schrödinger operators acting on connected periodic lattices: the measure of the spectrum goes to zero as the couplin…

Sharp Polynomial Velocity Decay Bounds for Multidimensional Periodic Schrödinger Operators

Houssam Abdul-Rahman, Jake Fillman, Christoph Fischbacher +1

We investigate periodic Schrödinger operators in arbitrary dimensions in the large coupling regime. Our results establish that both the Lieb--Robinson velocity and the asymptotic v…

Almost Periodic Solutions of The Cubic Defocusing Nonlinear Schrödinger Equation

Jake Fillman, Long Li, Milivoje Lukić +1

This paper addresses the Cauchy problem for the cubic defocusing nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLS) with almost periodic initial data. We prove that for small analytic quasiperio…

Optimal dispersion for discrete periodic Schrödinger operators

David Damanik, Jake Fillman, Giorgio Young

We prove a dispersive estimate for periodic discrete Schrödinger operators on the line with optimal rate of decay. Additionally, by standard methods, we deduce dispersive estimates…

On the Spectra of Sieved Schrödinger Operators

Jake Fillman, Alexandro Luna

We give a family of examples of discrete Schrödinger operators whose spectral dimension is not invariant under sieving. The examples are produced from the Fibonacci Hamiltonian, wh…

Thin Spectra for Periodic and Ergodic Word Models

Jake Fillman, Michala N. Gradner, Hannah J. Hendricks

We establish a new and simple criterion that suffices to generate many spectral gaps for periodic word models. This leads to new examples of ergodic Schrödinger operators with Cant…

Gap Labels and Asymptotic Gap Opening for Full Shifts

David Damanik, Íris Emilsdóttir, Jake Fillman

We discuss gap labelling for operators generated by the full shift over a compact subset of the real line. The set of Johnson--Schwartzman gap labels is the algebra generated by we…

Mobility edges in pseudo-unitary quasiperiodic quantum walks

Christopher Cedzich, Jake Fillman

We introduce a Floquet quasicrystal that simulates the motion of Bloch electrons in a homogeneous magnetic field in discrete time steps. We admit the hopping to be non-reciprocal w…

Computing Spectral Size: Rigorous Algorithms and the Limits of Computation

Matthew J. Colbrook, Mark Embree, Jake Fillman

Many structures in mathematical physics and dynamics exhibit intricate fractal geometry. Such behavior appears prominently in quantum mechanics and materials science through spectr…

Absence of Bound States for Quantum Walks and CMV Matrices via Reflections

Christopher Cedzich, Jake Fillman

We give a criterion based on reflection symmetries in the spirit of Jitomirskaya--Simon to show absence of point spectrum for (split-step) quantum walks and Cantero--Moral--Velázqu…

On the Number of Closed Gaps of Discrete Periodic One-Dimensional Operators

Andrew Arroyo, Faye Castro, Jake Fillman

From the general inverse theory of periodic Jacobi matrices, it is known that a periodic Jacobi matrix of minimal period may have at most closed spectral gaps. We…

Exact mobility edges for almost-periodic CMV matrices via gauge symmetries

Christopher Cedzich, Jake Fillman, Long Li +2

We investigate the symmetries of so-called generalized extended CMV matrices. It is well-documented that problems involving reflection symmetries of standard extended CMV matrices…

Algebraic Properties of the Fermi Variety for Periodic Graph Operators

Jake Fillman, Wencai Liu, Rodrigo Matos

We present a method to estimate the number of irreducible components of the Fermi varieties of periodic Schrödinger operators on graphs in terms of suitable asymptotics. Our main t…

Gap Labels for Zeros of the Partition Function of the 1D Ising Model via the Schwartzman Homomorphism

David Damanik, Mark Embree, Jake Fillman

Inspired by the 1995 paper of Baake--Grimm--Pisani, we aim to explain the empirical observation that the distribution of Lee--Yang zeros corresponding to a one-dimensional Ising mo…
