Abstract

Let β ∈ (0, 1) be an irrational, and [a₁, a ₂,...] be the continued fraction expansion of β. Let H _β be the one-dimensional Schrödinger operator with Sturmian potentials. We show that if the potential strength V > 20, then the Hausdorff dimension of the spectrum σ (H_β) is strictly great than zero for any irrational β, and is strictly less than 1 if and only if lim inf_k→∞ (a₁a₂ ⋯ a_k))^1/k < ∞.
