We study real resonances and embedded eigenvalues of the Kramers--Fokker--Planck operator with a long-range potential. We prove that thresholds are only possible accumulation points of eigenvalues and that the limiting absorption principle…

We study the spectral theory of operators, generated as direct sums of self-adjoint extensions of quasi-differential minimal operators on a multi-interval set (self-adjoint vector-operators), acting in a Hilbert space. Spectral theorems for…

The goal of this note is to present some arguments leading to the conjecture that a formally self-adjoint differential operator on a closed manifold is essentially self-adjoint if and only if the Hamiltonian flow of its symbol is complete.…

For a given self-adjoint operator $A$ with discrete spectrum, we completely characterize possible eigenvalues of its rank-one perturbations~$B$ and discuss the inverse problem of reconstructing $B$ from its spectrum.

We consider a non-self-adjoint $H$ given as the perturbation of a self-adjoint operator $H_0$. We suppose that $H$ is of the form $H=H_0+CWC$ where $C$ is a bounded, positive definite and relatively compact with respect to $H_0$, and $W$ is…

We study singular Sturm-Liouville operators of the form \[ \frac{1}{r_j}\left(-\frac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}p_j\frac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}+q_j\right),\qquad j=0,1, \] in $L^2((a,b);r_j)$, where, in contrast to the usual assumptions, the…

Regular Sturm-Liouville problems with indefinite weight functions may possess finitely many non-real eigenvalues. In this note we prove explicit bounds on the real and imaginary parts of these eigenvalues in terms of the coefficients of the…

We use nonstandard methods to prove the direct integral version of the Spectral Theorem for Unbounded Self-adjoint Operators. Our proof avoids the standard reduction to the case of bounded normal operators via the Cayley transform and, as…

This paper concerns spectral stability of nonlinear waves in KdV-type evolution equations. The relevant eigenvalue problem is defined by the composition of an unbounded self-adjoint operator with a finite number of negative eigenvalues and…

General point interactions for the second derivative operator in one dimension are studied. In particular, ${\mathcal P \mathcal T}$-self-adjoint point interactions with the support at the origin and at points $\pm l$ are considered. The…

The spectral problem for the high order differential operator with singular weight is considered. If the weight is a generalized derivative of self-similar function with zero spectral degree the asymptotics of eigenvalues is obtained. They…

We show that for any $\lambda \in \mathbb{C}$ with $|\lambda|<1$ there exists an analytic expanding circle map such that the eigenvalues of the associated transfer operator (acting on holomorphic functions) are precisely the nonnegative…

It is established that a PT-symmetric elliptic quadratic differential operator with real spectrum is similar to a self-adjoint operator precisely when the associated fundamental matrix has no Jordan blocks.

The paper concerns the spectral theory for a class of non-self-adjoint block convolution operators. We mainly discuss the spectral representations of such operators. It is considered the general case of operators defined on Banach spaces.…

For the example of the infinitely deep well potential, we point out some paradoxes which are solved by a careful analysis of what is a truly self-adjoint operator. We then describe the self-adjoint extensions and their spectra for the…
