Abstract

We obtain rapidly convergent series expansions of resolvents of operators taking the form A=Γ1BΓ1{\bf A}=\Gamma_1{\bf B}\Gamma_1 where Γ1(k)\Gamma_1({\bf k}) is a projection that acts locally in Fourier space and B(x){\bf B}({\bf x}) is an operator that acts locally in real space. Such resolvents arise naturally when one wants to solve any of the large class of linear physical equations surveyed in Parts I, II, III, and IV that can be reformulated as problems in the extended abstract theory of composites. We show how the information about the spectrum of A{\bf A} can be used to greatly improve the convergence rate.
