We study singular Sturm-Liouville operators of the form \[ \frac{1}{r_j}\left(-\frac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}p_j\frac{\mathrm d}{\mathrm dx}+q_j\right),\qquad j=0,1, \] in $L^2((a,b);r_j)$, where, in contrast to the usual assumptions, the…
We study the spectrum of a periodic non-self-adjoint Dirac operator, and its dependence on a semiclassical parameter is also considered. Several bounds on the spectrum are obtained which provide sharp spectral enclosure estimates.…
Operators with continuous spectra naturally arise in spectral theory, quantum mechanics, automorphic forms, and noncommutative geometry. However, analyzing such operators, particularly in the non-selfadjoint setting, remains challenging due…
In this work we introduce a new measure for the dispersion of the spectral scale of a Hermitian (self-adjoint) operator acting on a separable infinite dimensional Hilbert space that we call spectral spread. Then, we obtain some…
The spectral and scattering properties of non-selfadjoint problems pose a mathematical challenge. Apart from exceptional cases, the well-developed methods used to examine the spectrum of selfadjoint problems are not applicable. One of the…
This article proposes a framework for the study of periodic maps $T$ from a (typically finite) set $X$ to itself when the set $X$ is equipped with one or more real- or complex-valued functions. The main idea, inspired by the time-evolution…
We present a spectral theory of hypergraphs that closely parallels Spectral Graph Theory. A number of recent developments building upon classical work has led to a rich understanding of "hyperdeterminants" of hypermatrices, a.k.a.…
We discuss a few integral operators and provide expressions for them in terms of smooth functions of some natural self-adjoint operators. These operators appear in the context of scattering theory, but are independent of any perturbation…
Random contractions (sub-unitary random matrices) appear naturally when considering quantized chaotic maps within a general theory of open linear stationary systems with discrete time. We analyze statistical properties of complex…
The quaternionic spectral theorem has already been considered in the literature, see e.g. [22], [31], [32], however, except for the finite dimensional case in which the notion of spectrum is associated to an eigenvalue problem, see [21], it…
In a previous paper (arXiv:math-ph/0604055) we introduced a very simple PT-symmetric non-Hermitian Hamiltonian with real spectrum and derived a closed formula for the metric operator relating the problem to a Hermitian one. In this note we…
Let $\mathbf{A}$ be a bounded self-adjoint operator on a separable Hilbert space $\mathfrak{H}$ and $\mathfrak{H}_0\subset\mathfrak{H}$ a closed invariant subspace of $\mathbf{A}$. Assuming that $\mathfrak{H}_0$ is of codimension 1, we…
In this paper we study the small-$\lambda$ spectral asymptotics of an integral operator $\mathscr{K}$ defined on two multi-intervals $J$ and $E$, when the multi-intervals touch each other (but their interiors are disjoint). The operator…
In this article we compute and analyze the spectrum of operators defined by the metaplectic representation $\mu$ on the unitary group $\mathbb{U}(d)$ or operators defined by the corresponding induced representation $d\mu$ of the Lie algebra…
We consider a nonlocal differential--difference Schr\"odinger operator on a segment with the Neumann conditions and two translations in the free term. The values of the translations are denoted by $\alpha$ and $\beta$ and are treated as…
We consider single-particle spectra of a symmetric narrow-band Anderson impurity model, where the host bandwidth $D$ is small compared to the hybridization strength $\Delta_{0}$. Simple 2nd order perturbation theory (2PT) in $U$ is found to…
We give general spectral and eigenvalue perturbation bounds for a selfadjoint operator perturbed in the sense of the pseudo-Friedrichs extension. We also give several generalisations of the aforementioned extension. The spectral bounds for…
We consider selfadjoint operators obtained by pasting a finite number of boundary relations with one-dimensional boundary space. A typical example of such an operator is the Schr\"odinger operator on a star-graph with a finite number of…
We study the spectral bounds of self-adjoint operators on the Hilbert space of square-integrable functions, arising from the representation theory of the Heisenberg group. Interestingly, starting either with the von Neumann lattice or the…
We define a class of pseudo-ergodic non-self-adjoint Schr\"odinger operators acting in spaces $l^2(X)$ and prove some general theorems about their spectral properties. We then apply these to study the spectrum of a non-self-adjoint Anderson…
