We consider a normal operator $T$ on a Hilbert space $H$. Under various assumptions on the spectrum of $T$, we give bounds for the spectrum of $T+A$ where $A$ is $T$-bounded with relative bound less than 1 but we do not assume that $A$ is…

On finite metric graphs the set of all realizations of the Laplace operator in the edgewise defined $L^2$-spaces are studied. These are defined by coupling boundary conditions at the vertices most of which define non-self-adjoint operators.…

Consider the operator $H\p=-\p''+q\p=\l\p$, $\p(0)=0$, $\p'(1)+b\p(1)=0$ acting in $L^2(0,1)$, where $q\in L^2(0,1)$ is a real potential. Let $\l_n(q,b)$, $n\ge 0$, be the eigenvalues of $H$ and $\n_n(q,b)$ be the so-called norming…

A variety of physical phenomena, such as amplification, absorption, and radiation, can be effectively described using non-Hermitian operators. However, the introduction of non-uniform non-Hermiticity can lead to the formation of exceptional…
