We prove that the spectrum of the almost Mathieu operator is absolutely continuous if and only if the coupling is subcritical. This settles Problem 6 of Barry Simon's list of Schr\"odinger operator problems for the twenty-first century.

    The spectrum E = R²(e^p + e^{-p}) + (e^x + e^{-x}) from local P¹ × P¹ is identified with the almost Mathieu operator, yielding three spectral phases separated by transitions at R² = 1 and R² = e^β.
