Abstract

Spectral properties of Schrödinger operators of the type H_e{open}=-Δ+e{open}V, where Δ is the Laplacian, V a quasiperiodic potential and e{open} a coupling constant, are developed. V is taken to be finite sum of exponentials with generic frequencies. For small e{open} a strong stability is shown. On the other hand, examples (in the finite diffeence case) are given, for which a transition in the type of spectrum occurs, as e{open} is increased.
