In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of the spectral flow of a one-parameter family $\{D_s\}$ of Dirac operators acting on the spinor bunldle $S$ twisted by a vector bundle $E$ of rank $k$, with the parameter $s\in [0,r]$ when $r$…

In this article, we are concerned with the following eigenvalue problem of a linear second order elliptic operator: \begin{equation} \nonumber -D\Delta \phi -2\alpha\nabla m(x)\cdot \nabla\phi+V(x)\phi=\lambda\phi\ \ \hbox{ in }\Omega,…

We present a model for spectral theory of families of selfadjoint operators, and their corresponding unitary one-parameter groups (acting in Hilbert space.) The models allow for a scale of complexity, indexed by the natural numbers…

We study the eigenvalues of Schr\"odinger type operators $T + \lambda V$ and their asymptotic behavior in the small coupling limit $\lambda \to 0$, in the case where the symbol of the kinetic energy, $T(p)$, strongly degenerates on a…

We consider a second order self-adjoint operator in a domain which can be bounded or unbounded. The boundary is partitioned into two parts with Dirichlet boundary condition on one of them, and Neumann condition on the other. We assume that…

The purpose of this Note is to highlight the spectral instability of some non-selfadjoint differential operators, by studying the growth rate of the norms of the spectral projections $\Pi_n$ associated with their eigenvalues. More…

We study the spectrum of one dimensional integral operators in bounded real intervals of length $2L$, for value of $L$ large. The integral operators are obtained by linearizing a non local evolution equation for a non conserved order…
