How to prove the following linearized operator is positive?
In $L^2(\mathbb{R}^d)$, let $Q$ be the solution to
\begin{equation}
-\Delta Q+\alpha^2 Q = |Q|^{2\sigma} Q,
\end{equation}
and $Q$ satisfies that it is positive, radial, and exponentially decaying (...

Time dependent Hamiltonians
I'm studying time dependent perturbation theory on Reed-Simon book "Method of modern mathematical physics, II". If one considers an Hamiltonian of the form
$$H(t)=H_0+V(t)$$
the corresponding formal ...

Gap-opening perturbations of the periodic Schrödinger operator
I am trying to understand this short paper and I am getting stuck right at the end.
Let $V(x)$ be $C^\infty$ and 1-periodic (that is, $V(x)=V(x+1)$).
We are considering the operator
$$A=-\dfrac{d^2}...
