We study realizations generated by the original Weyl-Titchmarsh functions $m_\infty(z)$ and $m_\alpha(z)$. It is shown that the Herglotz-Nevanlinna functions $(-m_\infty(z))$ and $(1/m_\infty(z))$ can be realized as the impedance functions…

Variational principles are proved for self-adjoint operator functions arising from variational evolution equations of the form \[ \langle\ddot{z}(t),y \rangle + \mathfrak{d}[\dot{z} (t), y] + \mathfrak{a}_0 [z(t),y] = 0. \] Here…

We investigate the connections between Weyl-Titchmarsh-Kodaira theory for one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators and the theory of $n$-entire operators. As our main result we find a necessary and sufficient condition for a one-dimensional…

In this paper we consider an initial/boundary value problem for the Schr\"odinger equation with a right-hand side involving the fractional Sturm-Liouville operator with singular propagation and potential. To construct a solution, first…

We study two problems. The first one is the similarity problem for the indefinite Sturm-Liouville operator \[ A=-(\sgn\, x)\frac{d}{wdx}\frac{d}{rdx} \] acting in $L^2_{w}(-b,b)$. It is assumed that $w,r\in L^1_{\loc}(-b,b)$ are even and…

We develop a sharp boundary trace theory in arbitrary bounded Lipschitz domains which, in contrast to classical results, allows "forbidden" endpoints and permits the consideration of functions exhibiting very limited regularity. This is…

Let $H$ be any $\PT$ symmetric Schr\"odinger operator of the type $ -\hbar^2\Delta+(x_1^2+...+x_d^2)+igW(x_1,...,x_d)$ on $L^2(\R^d)$, where $W$ is any odd homogeneous polynomial and $g\in\R$. It is proved that $\P H$ is self-adjoint and…

The classical Weyl-von Neumann theorem states that for any self-adjoint operator $A$ in a separable Hilbert space $\mathfrak H$ there exists a (non-unique) Hilbert-Schmidt operator $C = C^*$ such that the perturbed operator $A+C$ has purely…

The spectral shift function of a pair of self-adjoint operators is expressed via an abstract operator valued Titchmarsh--Weyl $m$-function. This general result is applied to different self-adjoint realizations of second-order elliptic…

In this paper we study the L-system realizations generated by the original Weyl-Titchmarsh functions $m_\alpha(z)$ in the case when the minimal symmetric Shr\"o\-dinger operator in $L_2[\ell,+\infty)$ is non-negative. We realize functions…

In this paper, we consider discrete Schr\"odinger operators of the form, \begin{equation*} (Hu)(n)= u({n+1})+u({n-1})+V(n)u(n). \end{equation*} We view $H$ as a perturbation of the free operator $H_0$, where $(H_0u)(n)= u({n+1})+u({n-1})$.…

We study general (not necessarily Hamiltonian) first-order symmetric systems $J y'(t)-B(t)y(t)=\D(t) f(t)$ on an interval $[a,b> $ with the regular endpoint $a$. The deficiency indices $n_\pm$ of the corresponding minimal relation $\Tmi$…

For a two-dimensional Schr\"odinger operator $H_{\alpha V}=-\Delta-\alpha V,\ V\ge 0,$ we study the behavior of the number $N_-(H_{\alpha V})$ of its negative eigenvalues (bound states), as the coupling parameter $\alpha$ tends to infinity.…

In the setting of adjoint pairs of operators we consider the question: to what extent does the Weyl M-function see the same singularities as the resolvent of a certain restriction $A_B$ of the maximal operator? We obtain results showing…

We study self-adjoint extensions of a second order differential operator of Sturm-Liouville type on a graph. We relate self-adjointness of the operator to the existence of non-complete trajectories of the Hamiltonian vector field defined by…

We obtain generalizations of classical versions of the Weyl formula involving Schr\"odinger operators $H_V=-\Delta_g+V(x)$ on compact boundaryless Riemannian manifolds with critically singular potentials $V$. In particular, we extend the…

We study spectral properties of Schr\"odinger operators with $\delta$-interactions on a semi-axis by using the theory of boundary triplets and the corresponding Weyl functions. We establish a connection between spectral properties…

We prove a new criterion for the essential self-adjointness of pseudodifferential operators that does not involve ellipticity-type assumptions. For example, we show that self-adjointness holds in case the symbol is $C^{2d+3}$ with…

We discuss direct and inverse spectral theory of self-adjoint Sturm-Liouville relations with separated boundary conditions in the left-definite setting. In particular, we develop singular Weyl-Titchmarsh theory for these relations.…
