WKB structure in a scalar model of flat bands

Semyon Dyatlov, Henry Zeng, Maciej Zworski

We consider a family of periodic scalar operators for which one can define flat bands in the sense of Floquet-Bloch theory. One puzzling question originating in recent physics lite…

Semiclassical measures for complex hyperbolic quotients

Jayadev Athreya, Semyon Dyatlov, Nicholas Miller

We study semiclassical measures for Laplacian eigenfunctions on compact complex hyperbolic quotients. Geodesic flows on these quotients are a model case of hyperbolic dynamical sys…
