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 (Hβ) is strictly great than zero for any irrational β, and is strictly less than 1 if and only if lim infk→∞ (a1a2 ⋯ ak))1/k < ∞.
