Spectral properties of discrete Schrodinger operators with potentials generated by substitutions can be studied using so called trace maps and their dynamical properties. The aim of the talk is to describe the recent results (joint with D.Damanik) obtained in this direction for Fibonacci Hamiltonian, and to list some related problems that could potentially turn into research projects for interested graduate students.
