In this article, we present a new subadditivity behavior of convex and concave functions, when applied to Hilbert space operators. For example, under suitable assumptions on the spectrum of the positive operators $A$ and $B$, we prove that…

Let $\sigma(A)$, $\rho(A)$ and $r(A)$ denote the spectrum, spectral radius and numerical radius of a bounded linear operator $A$ on a Hilbert space $H$, respectively. We show that a linear operator $A$ satisfying $$\rho(AB)\le r(A)r(B)…

Let $S$ be a bounded linear operator on a Hilbert space. We show that if $S$ is accretive (resp. dissipative the sense that $\frac{S-{{S}^{*}}}{2i}$ is positive) in the sense that $\frac{S+{{S}^{*}}}{2}$ is positive, then…

We consider the semilinear diffusion equation $\partial$ t u = Au + |u| $\alpha$ u in the half-space R N + := R N --1 x (0, +$\infty$), where A is a linear diffusion operator, which may be the classical Laplace operator, or a fractional…

Let -Delta+V be the Schrodinger operator acting on L^2(R^d,C) with d odd larger than 2. Here V is a bounded real- or complex-valued function vanishing outside the closed ball of center 0 and radius a. If V belongs to the class of potentials…

Let $\mu \in {\cal E}'({\mathbb R}^n)$ be a compactly supported distribution such that its support is a convex set with non-empty interior. Let $X_2$ be a convex domain in ${\mathbb R}^n$, $X_1 = X_2 + supp \ \mu $. Assuming that a…

Given a self-adjoint involution J on a Hilbert space H, we consider a J-self-adjoint operator L=A+V on H where A is a possibly unbounded self-adjoint operator commuting with J and V a bounded J-self-adjoint operator anti-commuting with J.…

Let X be a compact manifold with boundary, and g a scattering metric on X, which may be either of short range or `gravitational' long range type. Thus, g gives X the geometric structure of a complete manifold with an asymptotically conic…

The Kato square root problem for divergence form elliptic operators with potential $V : \mathbb{R}^{n} \rightarrow \mathbb{C}$ is the equivalence statement $\left\Vert (L + V)^{\frac{1}{2}} u\right\Vert_{2} \simeq \left\Vert \nabla u…

We study the inverse spectral problem for Bessel type operators with potential (v(x)): (H_\kappa=-\partial_x^2+\frac{k}{x^2}+v(x)). The potential is assumed smooth in ((0,R)) and with an asymptotic expansion in powers and logarithms as…

In this paper, we consider a rather general linear evolution equation of fractional type, namely a diffusion type problem in which the diffusion operator is the $s$th power of a positive definite operator having a discrete spectrum in…

For an unbounded operator $S$ on a Banach space the existence of invariant subspaces corresponding to its spectrum in the left and right half-plane is proved. The general assumption on $S$ is the uniform boundedness of the resolvent along…

In this paper we prove that, under suitable assumptions on {\alpha} > 0, the operator L = (1 + |x|{\alpha})\Delta admits realizations generating contraction or analytic semigroups in Lp (RN). For some values of {\alpha}, we also explicitly…

This paper is concerned with a parabolic evolution equation of the form $A(u_t) + B(u) = f$, settled in a smooth bounded domain of ${\bf R}^d$, $d \geq 1$, and complemented with the initial conditions and with (for simplicity) homogeneous…

Resolvent compositions were recently introduced as monotonicity-preserving operations that combine a set-valued monotone operator and a bounded linear operator. They generalize in particular the notion of a resolvent average. We analyze the…

We introduce the resolvent composition, a monotonicity-preserving operation between a linear operator and a set-valued operator, as well as the proximal composition, a convexity-preserving operation between a linear operator and a function.…

We study the spectral gap behavior of an operator obtained by summing a random permutation $M$ and a deterministic bistochastic matrix $Q$. We are interested in the asymptotic in terms of dimension. In the case where $(M,Q)$ are…
