The adjacency operator of a graph has a spectrum and a class of scalar-valued spectral measures which have been systematically analyzed; it also has a spectral multiplicity function which has been less studied. The first purpose of this…

We obtain a new general extension theorem in Banach spaces for operators which are not required to be symmetric, and apply it to obtain Harnack estimates and a priori regularity for solutions of fractional powers of several second order…

We develop the method of similar operators to study the spectral properties of unbounded perturbed linear operators that can be represented by matrices of various kinds. The class of operators under consideration includes various…

We establish a spectral duality for certain unbounded operators in Hilbert space. The class of operators includes discrete graph Laplacians arising from infinite weighted graphs. The problem in this context is to establish a practical…

Let $(M_i, g_i)_{i \in \mathbb{N}}$ be a sequence of spin manifolds with uniform bounded curvature and diameter that converges to a lower dimensional Riemannian manifold $(B,h)$ in the Gromov-Hausdorff topology. Lott showed that the…

We develop the idea of an effective conformal theory describing the low-lying spectrum of the dilatation operator in a CFT. Such an effective theory is useful when the spectrum contains a hierarchy in the dimension of operators, and a small…

Let H be an infinite-dimensional (real or complex) Hilbert space, viewed as a metric structure in its natural signature. We characterize the definable linear operators on H as exactly the "scalar plus compact" operators.

In this note, we review some recent developments related to metric aspects of scalar curvature from the point of view of index theory for Dirac operators. In particular, we revisit index-theoretic approaches to a conjecture of Gromov on the…

Indicial operators are model operators associated to an elliptic differential operator near a corner singularity on a stratified manifold. These model operators are defined on generalized tangent cone configurations and exhibit a natural…

Results concerning set theoretic continuity properties of the spectrum of the Harper operator are extended to a large class (generalized Harper operators (GHO)) of operators in $L^{2}(\bZ^{2})$.

In this work we introduce a new measure for the dispersion of the spectral scale of a Hermitian (self-adjoint) operator acting on a separable infinite dimensional Hilbert space that we call spectral spread. Then, we obtain some…

In this article, the existence of the spectrum (the eigenvalues) for the nonlinear continuous operators acting in the Banach spaces is investigated. For the study, this question is used a different approach that allows the studying of all…

We obtain inequalities for the Riesz means for the discrete spectrum of a class of self-adjoint compact integral operators. Such bounds imply some inequalities for the counting function of the Dirichlet boundary problem for the Laplace…

Let $A$ be an unbounded operator on a Banach space $X$. It is sometimes useful to improve the operator $A$ by extending it to an operator $B$ on a larger Banach space $Y$ with smaller spectrum. It would be preferable to do this with some…

In this paper we introduce and study some Hilbert-type operators acting from the function spaces into the sequence spaces. We give some sufficient and necessary conditions for the boundedness and compactness of these Hilbert-type operators.…

We study the recovery of operators with bandlimited Kohn-Nirenberg symbol from the action of such operators on a weighted impulse train, a procedure we refer to as operator sampling. Kailath, and later Kozek and the authors have shown that…

We study extensions of direct sums of symmetric operators $S=\oplus_{n\in\mathbb{N}} S_n$. In general there is no natural boundary triplet for $S^*$ even if there is one for every $S_n^*$, $n\in\mathbb{N}$. We consider a subclass of…

We revisit a construction principle of Fredholm operators using Hilbert complexes of densely defined, closed linear operators and apply this to particular choices of differential operators. The resulting index is then computed with the help…

This expository essay discusses a finite dimensional approach to dilation theory. How much of dilation theory can be worked out within the realm of linear algebra? It turns out that some interesting and simple results can be obtained. These…

The scaling limit $A_{\hbar,\eta}(\hat{sl_2})$ of the elliptic algebra $A_{q,p}(\hat{sl_2})$ is investigated. The limiting algebra is defined in terms of a continuous family of generators being Fourier harmonics of Gauss coordinates of the…
