In this paper, we generalize a recent result of A. Eremenko and A. Gabrielov on irreducibility of the spectral discriminant for the Schr\"odinger equation with quartic potentials. We consider the eigenvalue problem with a complex-valued…

We perform quantitative spectral analysis of the self-adjoint Dirichlet Laplacian $\mathsf{H}$ on an unbounded, radially symmetric (generalized) parabolic layer $\mathcal{P}\subset\mathbb{R}^3$. It was known before that $\mathsf{H}$ has an…

Let $K$ be a field of characteristic zero and suppose that $f:\mathbb{N}\to K$ satisfies a recurrence of the form $$f(n)\ =\ \sum_{i=1}^d P_i(n) f(n-i),$$ for $n$ sufficiently large, where $P_1(z),...,P_d(z)$ are polynomials in $K[z]$.…

We consider compact Hankel operators realized in $ \ell^2(\mathbb Z_+)$ as infinite matrices $\Gamma$ with matrix elements $h(j+k)$. Roughly speaking, we show that if $h(j)\sim (b_{1}+ (-1)^j b_{-1}) j^{-1}(\log j)^{-\alpha}$ as $j\to…

We strengthen and generalise a result of Kirsch and Simon on the behaviour of the function $N_L(E)$, the number of bound states of the operator $L = \Delta+V$ in $\R^d$ below $-E$. Here $V$ is a bounded potential behaving asymptotically…

Let $A_{p,r}^m(n)$ be the best constant that fulfills the following inequality: for every $m$-homogeneous polynomial $P(z) = \sum_{|\alpha|=m} a_{\alpha} z^{\alpha}$ in $n$ complex variables, $$\big( \sum_{|\alpha|=m} |a_{\alpha}|^{r}…

We prove that every metric graph which is a tree has an orthonormal sequence of Laplace-eigenfunctions of full support. This implies that the number of nodal domains $\nu_n$ of the $n$-th eigenfunction of the Laplacian with standard…

The paper deals with the asymptotic behavior as $\eps\to 0$ of the spectrum of Laplace-Beltrami operator $\Delta\e$ on the Riemannian manifold $M\e$ ($\mathrm{\dim} M\e=N\geq 2$) depending on a small parameter $\eps>0$. $M\e$ consists of…

In this paper we study a family of operators dependent on a small parameter $\epsilon > 0$, which arise in a problem in fluid mechanics. We show that the spectra of these operators converge to N as $\epsilon \to 0$, even though, for fixed…

The Spectral Problem is to describe possible spectra $\sigma (A_j)$ for an irreducible $n$-tuple of Hermitian operators s.t. $A_1+...+A_n$ is a scalar operator. In case when $m_j= | \sigma (A_j)|$ are finite and a rooted tree ${\rm…

Let $P\in \Bbb Q_p[x,y]$, $s\in \Bbb C$ with sufficiently large real part, and consider the integral operator $ (A_{P,s}f)(y):=\frac{1}{1-p^{-1}}\int_{\Bbb Z_p}|P(x,y)|^sf(x) |dx| $ on $L^2(\Bbb Z_p)$. We show that if $P$ is homogeneous…
