contents We consider the spectrum of the Almost Mathieu operator (AMO) and show that the moments of the restriction of the Lebesgue measure to the intersection spectrum $\text{Leb}|_{Σ_{α,λ}}$ are polynomials in coupling $λ$ with coefficients that are trigonometric polynomials in frequency $α$. The statement can be considered as a generalization of the Aubry-André formula for the measure of the spectrum of AMO. As a corollary, we obtain that the restriction of the Lebesgue measure to the intersection spectrum that we denote by $μ^{-}_{α, λ}$ depends continuously on the parameters (frequency $α$ and coupling $λ$) in weak-* topology. Moreover, we prove that the dependence is not just continuous but analytic in $λ$ and $C^{\infty}$ in $α$ in a sense that an integral of an analytic test function $φ(x)$ with respect to $μ^{-}_{α, λ}$ has the same kind of dependence. In particular, this implies that the Lebesgue measure of the part of the spectrum $Σ_{α,λ}$ that lies between two gaps depends analytically on the coupling constant $λ$ and $C^{\infty}$ on the frequency $α$ in an open domain (away from the critical coupling $λ=1$) where these gaps do not bifurcate.
