Abstract

Consider the operator T=-d2dx2+x2+q(x) in L2(R), where real functions q, q' and ∫0xq(s)ds are bounded. In particular, q is periodic or almost periodic. The spectrum of T is purely discrete and consists of the simple eigenvalues \μn\n=0∞, μn<μn+1. We determine their asymptotics μn = (2n+1) + (2π)-1∫-ππq(2n+1θ)dθ+ O(n-1/3).
