The paper studies the spectral properties of the Schr\"odinger operator $A_{gV} = A_0 + gV$ on a homogeneous rooted metric tree, with a decaying real-valued potential $V$ and a coupling constant $g\ge 0$. The spectrum of the free Laplacian…

The paper mainly deals with suprema and infima of self-adjoint operators in a von Neumann algebra $\mathcal{M}$ with respect to the spectral order. Let $\mathcal{M}_{sa}$ be the self-adjoint part of $\mathcal{M}$ and let $\preceq$ be the…

We study perturbations of the self-adjoint periodic Sturm--Liouville operator \[ A_0 = \frac{1}{r_0}\left(-\frac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx} p_0 \frac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx} + q_0\right) \] and conclude under $L^1$-assumptions on the differences…

Given an n-tuple {b_1, ..., b_n} of self-adjoint operators in a finite von Neumann algebra M and a faithful, normal tracial state tau on M, we define a map Psi from M to R^{n+1} by Psi(a) = (tau(a), tau(b_1a), ..., tau(b_na)). The image of…

We develop the spectral and scattering theory for self-adjoint Hankel operators $H$ with piecewise continuous symbols. In this case every jump of the symbol gives rise to a band of the absolutely continuous spectrum of $H$. We construct…

The goal of this paper is twofold. We prove that the operator $H=L+V$ , a perturbation of the Taibleson-Vladimirov multiplier $L=\mathfrak{D}^{\alpha}$ by a potential $V(x)=b\left\Vert x\right\Vert ^{-\alpha},$ $b\geq b_{\ast},$ is…

We consider a perturbed Floquet Hamiltonian $-i\partial_t + H + \beta V(\omega t)$ in the Hilbert space $L^2([0,T],E,dt)$. Here $H$ is a self-adjoint operator in $E$ with a discrete spectrum obeying a growing gap condition, $V(t)$ is a…

We extend an example of B. Aupetit, which illustrates spectral discontinuity for operators on an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space, to a general spectral discontinuity result in abstract Banach algebras. This can then be used to…

Closed operators in Hilbert space defined by a non-self-adjoint resolution of the identity $\{X(\lambda)\}_{\lambda\in {\mb R}}$, whose adjoints constitute also a resolution of the identity, are studied . In particular, it is shown that a…

Let $(E,\mathcal F,\mu)$ be a probability space, and let $P$ be a Markov operator on $L^2(\mu)$ with $1$ a simple eigenvalue such that $\mu P=\mu$ (i.e. $\mu$ is an invariant probability measure of $P$). Then $\hat P:=\ff 1 2 (P+P^*)$ has a…

We study the propagation properties of abstract linear Schr\"odinger equations of the form $i\partial_t\psi = H_0\psi+V(t)\psi$, where $H_0$ is a self-adjoint operator and $V(t)$ a time-dependent potential. We present explicit sufficient…

Covering ill-posed problems with compact and non-compact operators regarding the degree of ill-posedness is a never ending story written by many authors in the inverse problems literature. This paper tries to add a new narrative and some…

We consider the unperturbed operator $H_0 : = (-i \nabla - A)^2 + W$, self-adjoint in $L^2(\R^2)$. Here $A$ is a magnetic potential which generates a constant magnetic field $b>0$, and the edge potential $W$ is a non-decreasing non constant…

We derive a spectral representation for the oblate spheroidal wave operator which is holomorphic in the aspherical parameter $\Omega$ in a neighborhood of the real line. For real $\Omega$, estimates are derived for all eigenvalue gaps…

This paper considers $N\times N$ matrices of the form $A_\gamma =A+ \gamma B$, where $A$ is self-adjoint, $\gamma \in C$ and $B$ is a non-self-adjoint perturbation of $A$. We obtain some monodromy-type results relating the spectral…

In this note the following theorem is proved. Let $\mathcal H$ and $\mathcal K$ be Hilbert spaces. Let $H_0$ be a self-adjoint operator on $\mathcal H,$ $F \colon \mathcal H \to \mathcal K$ be a closed $|H_0|^{1/2}$-compact operator, and $J…
