It is well known that, given an equivariant and continuous (in a suitable sense) family of selfadjoint operators in a Hilbert space over a minimal dynamical system, the spectrum of all operators from that family coincides. As shown recently…

We consider the problem of embedding eigenvalues into the essential spectrum of periodic Jacobi operators, using an oscillating, decreasing potential. To do this we employ a geometric method, previously used to embed eigenvalues into the…
We provide characterizations of continuous eigenvalues for minimal symbolic dynamical systems described by $S$-adic structures satisfying natural mild conditions, such as recognizability and primitiveness. Under the additional assumptions…
We describe the spectrum of a non-self-adjoint elliptic system on a finite interval. Under certain conditions we find that the eigenvalues form a discrete set and converge asymptotically at infinity to one of several straight lines. The…
For a compact spin manifold $M$ isometrically embedded into Euclidean space, we derive the extrinsic estimates from above and below for eigenvalues of the Dirac operators, which depend on the second fundamental form of the embedding. We…
In this paper we study absence of embedded eigenvalues for Schr\"odinger operators on non-compact connected Riemannian manifolds. A principal example is given by a manifold with an end (possibly more than one) in which geodesic coordinates…
We discuss an eigenvalue problem which arises in the studies of asymptotic stability of a self-similar attractor in the sigma model. This problem is rather unusual from the viewpoint of the spectral theory of linear operators and requires…
In this work we continue the study of the Weyl asymptotics of the distribution of eigenvalues of non-self-adjoint (pseudo)differential operators with small random perturbations, by treating the case of multiplicative perturbations in…
The minimax principle for eigenvalues in gaps of the essential spectrum in the form presented by Griesemer, Lewis, and Siedentop in [Doc. Math. 4 (1999), 275--283] is adapted to cover certain abstract perturbative settings with bounded or…
We consider a well-posed eigenvalue problem on $(a,0)$, depending on a continuous function $m$. The boundary conditions in the points $a,0$ are depending on the eigenvalues. We divide $(a,0)$ into small intervals and approximate the…
Eigenvalue problems for semidefinite operators with infinite dimensional kernels appear for instance in electromagnetics. Variational discretizations with edge elements have long been analyzed in terms of a discrete compactness property. As…
We examine perturbations of eigenvalues and resonances for a class of multi-channel quantum mechanical model-Hamiltonians describing a particle interacting with a localized spin in dimension $d=1,2,3$. We consider unperturbed Hamiltonians…
The aim of this paper is to study the existence of eigenvalues in the gap of the essential spectrum of the one-dimensional Dirac operator in the presence of a bounded potential. We employ a generalized variational principle to prove…
A lower semi-definite self-adjoint linear operator in a Hilbert space is taken whose discrete spectrum is not empty and comprises at least several eigenvalues $\lambda_{min}=\lambda_1\leqslant\ldots\leqslant\lambda_m<\sigma_{ess}$. The…
We characterize possible spectra of rank-one perturbations B of a self-adjoint operator A with discrete spectrum and, in particular, prove that the spectrum of B may include any number of real or non-real eigenvalues of arbitrary algebraic…
A spatially localized initial condition for an energy-conserving wave equation with periodic coefficients disperses (spatially spreads) and decays in amplitude as time advances. This dispersion is associated with the continuous spectrum of…
This paper is concerned with {an extension and reinterpretation} of previous results on the variational characterization of eigenvalues in gaps of the essential spectrum of self-adjoint operators. {We state} two general abstract results on…
I present an example of a discrete Schr"odinger operator that shows that it is possible to have embedded singular spectrum and, at the same time, discrete eigenvalues that approach the edges of the essential spectrum (much) faster than…
The spectrum of the Schr\"odinger operator in a quantum waveguide is known to be unstable in two and three dimensions. Any enlargement of the waveguide produces eigenvalues beneath the continuous spectrum. Also if the waveguide is bent…
