In classical matrix theory, there exist useful extremal characterizations of eigenvalues and their sums for Hermitian matrices (due to Ky Fan, Courant-Fischer-Weyl and Wielandt) and some consequences such as the majorization assertion in…
The $u$-plane integrals of topologically twisted $N = 2$ supersymmetric gauge theories generally contain contact terms of nonlocal topological observables. This paper proposes an interpretation of these contact terms from the point of view…
We analyze the large $N$ spectrum of chiral primary operators of three dimensional fixed points of the renormalization group. Using the space-time picture of the fixed points and the correspondence between anti-de Sitter compactifications…
A general representation formula for the scattering matrix of a scattering system consisting of two self-adjoint operators in terms of an abstract operator valued Titchmarsh-Weyl $m$-function is proved. This result is applied to scattering…
The paper deals with spectral order isomorphisms in the framework of AW*-algebras. We establish that every spectral order isomorphism between sets of all self-adjoint operators (or between sets of all effects, or between sets of all…
Some preliminaries and basic facts regarding unbounded Wiener-Hopf operators (WH) are provided. WH with rational symbols are studied in detail showing that they are densely defined closed and have finite dimensional kernels and deficiency…
We study refinements between spectral resolutions in an arbitrary II$_1$ factor $\M$ and obtain diffuse (maximal) refinements of spectral resolutions. We construct models of operators with respect to diffuse spectral resolutions. As an…
We develop a general technique for finding self-adjoint extensions of a symmetric operator that respect a given set of its symmetries. Problems of this type naturally arise when considering two- and three-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators…
A number of results on radial positive definite functions on ${\mathbb R^n}$ related to Schoenberg's integral representation theorem are obtained. They are applied to the study of spectral properties of self-adjoint realizations of two- and…
We canonically associate to any planar algebra two type II_{\infty} factors M_{+} and M_{-}. The subfactors constructed previously by the authors in a previous paper are isomorphic to compressions of M_{+} and M_{-} to finite projections.…
We extend to infinite dimensional separable Hilbert spaces the Schur convexity property of eigenvalues of a symmetric matrix with real entries. Our framework includes both the case of linear, selfadjoint, compact operators, and that of…
A remarkable feature of Schur functions -- the common eigenfunctions of cut-and-join operators from $W_\infty$ -- is that they factorize at the peculiar two-parametric topological locus in the space of time-variables, what is known as the…
We establish connections between Schur parameters of the Schur class operator-valued functions, the corresponding simple conservative realizations, lower triangular Toeplitz matrices, and Kre\u\i n shorted operators. By means of Schur…
Assume that $T_1,T_2$ are equivalent Schauder operators. In this paper, we show that even in this case their Schauder spectrum may be very different in the view of operator theory. In fact, we get that if a self-adjoint Schauder operator…
We prove inclusion theorems for both spectra and essential spectra as well as two-sided bounds for isolated eigenvalues for Klein-Gordon type Hamiltonian operators. We first study operators of the form $JG$, where $J$, $G$ are selfadjoint…
Let $u\not\equiv -\infty$ and $M\not\equiv -\infty$ are two subharmonic functions in the complex plane $\mathbb C$ with the Riesz measures $\nu_u$ and $\mu_M$ such that $u(z)\leq O(|z|)$ and $M(z)\leq O(|z|)$ as $z\to \infty$. If the growth…
We propose a definition for a Tau function and a spinor kernel (closely related to Baker-Akhiezer functions), where times parametrize slow (of order 1/N) deformations of an algebraic plane curve. This definition consists of a formal…
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…
For selfadjoint extensions tilde-A of a symmetric densely defined positive operator A_min, the lower boundedness problem is the question of whether tilde-A is lower bounded {\it if and only if} an associated operator T in abstract boundary…
Let $\dot A$ be a densely defined, closed, symmetric operator in the complex, separable Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ with equal deficiency indices and denote by $\mathcal{N}_i = \ker \big(\big(\dot A\big)^* - i I_{\mathcal{H}}\big)$, $\dim…
