The limiting absorption principle for the discrete Wigner-von Neumann operator

We apply weighted Mourre commutator theory to prove the limiting absorption principle for the discrete Schrödinger operator perturbed by the sum of a Wigner-von Neumann and long-range type potential. In particular, this implies a new result concerning the absolutely continuous spectrum for these operators even for the one-dimensional operator. We show that methods of classical Mourre theory based on differential inequalities and on the generator of dilation cannot apply to the aforementioned Schrödinger operators.
