We introduce a class of Jacobi operators with discrete spectra which is characterized by a simple convergence condition. With any operator J from this class we associate a characteristic function as an analytic function on a suitable…

Extending earlier work of Killip-Simon and Simon-Zlatos, we obtain sum rules for Jacobi matrices in which the a.c. part of the spectral measure and the eigenvalues of the matrix appear on opposite sides of the equation. We use these to…

In this paper, a family of random Jacobi matrices, with off-diagonal terms that exhibit power-law growth, is studied. Since the growth of the randomness is slower than that of these terms, it is possible to use methods applied in the study…

We study spectrum inclusion regions for complex Jacobi matrices which are compact perturbations of real periodic Jacobi matrices. The condition sufficient for the lack of discrete spectrum for such matrices is given

For tridiagonal block Jacobi operators, the standard transfer operator techniques only work if the off-diagonal entries are invertible. Under suitable assumptions on the range and kernel of these off-diagonal operators which assure a…

A matrix pattern is often either a sign pattern with entries in {0,+,-} or, more simply, a nonzero pattern with entries in {0,*}. A matrix pattern A is spectrally arbitrary if for any choice of a real matrix spectrum, there is a real matrix…

We construct a functional model (direct integral expansion) and study the spectra of certain periodic block-operator Jacobi matrices, in particular, of general 2D partial difference operators of the second order. We obtain the upper bound,…

Convergence problems in coupled-cluster iterations are discussed, and a new iteration scheme is proposed. Whereas the Jacobi method inverts only the diagonal part of the large matrix of equation coefficients, we invert a matrix which also…

We apply the methods of classical approximation theory (extreme properties of polynomials) to study the essential support $\Sigma_{ac}$ of the absolutely continuous spectrum of Jacobi matrices. First, we prove an upper bound on the measure…

A real vector space combined with an inverse for vectors is sufficient to define a vector continued fraction whose parameters consist of vector shifts and changes of scale. The choice of sign for different components of the vector inverse…

We develop a matrix bordering technique that can be applied to an irreducible spectrally arbitrary sign pattern to construct a higher order spectrally arbitrary sign pattern. This technique generalizes a recently developed triangle…

Consider the Jacobi operators $\cJ$ given by $(\cJ y)_n=a_ny_{n+1}+b_ny_n+a_{n-1}^*y_{n-1}$, $y_n\in \C^m$ (here $y_0=y_{p+1}=0$), where $b_n=b_n^*$ and $a_n:\det a_n\ne 0$ are the sequences of $m\ts m$ matrices, $n=1,..,p$. We study two…

In this paper we study the inverse spectral problem for Jacobi-type pencils. By a Jacobi-type pencil we mean the following pencil $J_5 - \lambda J_3$, where $J_3$ is a Jacobi matrix and $J_5$ is a semi-infinite real symmetric five-diagonal…

Jacobi operators appear as kinetic operators of several classes of noncommutative field theories (NCFT) considered recently. This paper deals with the case of bounded Jacobi operators. A set of tools mainly issued from operator and spectral…

We look at periodic Jacobi matrices on trees. We provide upper and lower bounds on the gap of such operators analogous to the well known gap in the spectrum of the Laplacian on the upper half-plane with hyperbolic metric. We make some…

We study Jacobi matrices on star-like graphs, which are graphs that are given by the pasting of a finite number of half-lines to a compact graph. Specifically, we extend subordinacy theory to this type of graphs, that is, we find a…

We begin the systematic study of the spectral theory of periodic Jacobi matrices on trees including a formal definition. The most significant result that appears here for the first time is that these operators have no singular continuous…

We study the spectrum of unbounded J-self-adjoint block operator matrices. In particular, we prove enclosures for the spectrum, provide a sufficient condition for the spectrum being real and derive variational principles for certain real…

We propose a spectral method by using the Jacobi functions for computing eigenvalue gaps and their distribution statistics of the fractional Schr\"{o}dinger operator (FSO). In the problem, in order to get reliable gaps distribution…
