Spectral asymptotics of all the eigenvalues of Schrödinger operators on flat tori

Abstract

We study Schrödinger operators with Floquet boundary conditions on flat tori obtaining a spectral result giving an asymptotic expansion of all the eigenvalues. The expansion is in λ−δ with δ∈(0,1) for most of the eigenvalues λ (stable eigenvalues), while it is a “directional expansion” for the remaining eigenvalues (unstable eigenvalues). The proof is based on a structure theorem which is a variant of the one proved in [31,32] and on a new iterative quasimode argument.
