Spectral gaps of potentials in weighted Sobolev spaces

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: NATO Science for Peace and Security Series ((NAPSB))

We consider the Schrödinger operator L = −d2 /dx 2 +q on the interval [0,1] depending on an L 2-potential q and endowed with periodic or anti-periodic boundary conditions. We prove results about correspondencies between the asymptotic behaviour of the spectral gaps of L and the regularity of q in the Gevrey case, among others. The proofs are based on a Fourier block decomposition due to Kappeler &Mityagin, and a novel application of the implicit function theorem.
