M.Levitin and E.Shargorodsky purposed in a recent article, [math.SP/0212087], the use of the so called ``second order relative spectrum'', to find eigenvalues of self-adjoint operators in gaps of the essential spectrum. Let $M$ be a…

Let $T$ be a self-adjoint operator in a Hilbert space $H$ with domain $\mathcal D(T)$. Assume that the spectrum of $T$ is confined in the union of disjoint intervals $\Delta_k =[\alpha_{2k-1},\alpha_{2k}]$, $k\in \mathbb{Z}$, and $$…

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…

Let $A$ be a self-adjoint operator on a Hilbert space $\fH$. Assume that the spectrum of $A$ consists of two disjoint components $\sigma_0$ and $\sigma_1$. Let $V$ be a bounded operator on $\fH$, off-diagonal and $J$-self-adjoint with…

In this paper we explore a certain class of non-selfadjoint operators acting in a complex separable Hilbert space. We consider a perturbation of a non-selfadjoint operator by an operator that is also non-selfadjoint. Our consideration is…

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…

Let $H_0$, $H$ be a pair of self-adjoint operators for which the standard assumptions of the smooth version of scattering theory hold true. We give an explicit description of the absolutely continuous spectrum of the operator…

In the smooth scattering theory framework, we consider a pair of self-adjoint operators $H_0$, $H$ and discuss the spectral projections of these operators corresponding to the interval $(-\infty,\lambda)$. The purpose of the paper is to…

Criteria are formulated both for the existence and for the non-existence of complex eigenvalues for a class of non self-adjoint operators in Hilbert space invarariant under a particular discrete symmetry. Applications to the PT-symmetric…

We study the spectral properties of bounded and unbounded Jacobi matrices whose entries are bounded operators on a complex Hilbert space. In particular, we formulate conditions assuring that the spectrum of the studied operators is…

This paper is concerned with a certain aspect of the spectral theory of unitary operators in a Hilbert space and its aim is to give an explicit construction of continuous functions of unitary operators. Starting from a given unitary…

We describe some numerical experiments which determine the degree of spectral instability of medium size randomly generated matrices which are far from self-adjoint. The conclusion is that the eigenvalues are likely to be intrinsically…

In this article, we prove the following spectral theorem for right linear normal operators (need not to be bounded) in quaternionic Hilbert spaces: Let $T$ be an unbounded right quaternionic linear normal operator in a quaternionic Hilbert…

We use trace class scattering theory to exclude the possibility of absolutely continuous spectrum in a large class of self-adjoint operators with an underlying hierarchical structure and provide applications to certain random hierarchical…

In this paper several joint spectra for a finite commuting family of closed operators in Banach space are considered, some new relations between these spectra established (earlier only the inclusion of the Taylor spectrum in the commutant…

In this paper using a transform defined by the translation operator we introduce the concept of spectrum of sequences that are bounded by $n^\nu$, where $\nu$ is a natural number. We apply this spectral theory to study the asymptotic…

Linear spaces with an Euclidean metric are ubiquitous in mathematics, arising both from quadratic forms and inner products. Operators on such spaces also occur naturally. In recent years, the study of multivariate operator theory has made…

We study the spectrum of unbounded J-self-adjoint block operator matrices. In particular, we prove enclosures for the spectrum, provide a sufficient condition for the spectrum being real and derive variational principles for certain real…
