This volume gathers the articles based on a series of lectures from a workshop held at the Institute of Applied Mathematics of the National University of Mexico. The aim of the book is to present to a non-specialized audience the basic tools needed to understand and appreciate new trends of research on Schrödinger operator theory.

Topics discussed include various aspects of the spectral theory of differential operators, the theory of self-adjoint operators, finite rank perturbations, spectral properties of random Schrödinger operators, and scattering theory for Schrödinger operators.

The material is suitable for graduate students and research mathematicians interested in differential operators, in particular, spectral theory of Schrödinger operators.

This book is published in cooperation with Sociedad Matemática Mexicana.
