This summer school introduces the basic spectral theory of Schrödinger operators. The focus is on one-dimensional operators that are defined by some underlying dynamical system. The aim is to extract various spectral properties such as spectral types, behavior of generalized eigenfunctions, gap labels and the structure of the spectrum as a set. This allows to study different models such as the Fibonacci Hamiltonian.

The summer school is partially based on the recent book "One Dimensional Schrödinger Operators I. General Theory" and its application to specific models.

The summer school is aimed at young researchers such as graduate students and postdocs who are interested in these topics.
