Suppose $\alpha$ is an orientation preserving diffeomorphism (shift) of $\mR_+=(0,\infty)$ onto itself with the only fixed points $0$ and $\infty$. We establish sufficient conditions for the Fredholmness of the singular integral operator \[…

We provide a purely variational proof of the existence of eigenvalues below the bottom of the essential spectrum for the Schr\"odinger operator with an attractive $\delta$-potential supported by a star graph, i.e. by a finite union of rays…

We study a minimum problem and associated maximum problem for finite, complex, self-adjoint Toeplitz matrices. If $A$ is such a matrix, of size $(N+1)$-by-$(N+1)$, we identify $A$ with the operator it represents on $P_N$, the space of…

For every $\alpha \in (0,+\infty)$ and $p,q \in (1,+\infty)$ let $T_\alpha$ be the operator $L^p[0,1]\to L^q[0,1]$ defined via the equality $(T_\alpha f)(x) := \int_0^{x^\alpha} f(y) d y$. We study the norms of $T_\alpha$ for every $p$,…

We explicitly evaluate the principal eigenvalue of the extremal Pucci's sup--operator for a class of special plane domains, and we prove that, for fixed area, the eigenvalue is minimal for the most symmetric set.

We develop a theory of "special functions" associated to a certain fourth order differential operator $\mathcal{D}_{\mu,\nu}$ on $\mathbb{R}$ depending on two parameters $\mu,\nu$. For integers $\mu,\nu\geq-1$ with $\mu+\nu\in2\mathbb{N}_0$…

For a very general class of unbounded self-adjoint operator function we prove upper bounds for eigenvalues which lie within arbitrary gaps of the essential spectrum. These upper bounds are given by triple variations. Furthermore, we find…

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…

This is a conitunation of [1] and [2]. We prove that if function $f$ belongs to the class $\Lambda_{\omega} \overset{\text{def}}{=} \{f: \omega_{f}(\delta)\leq \text{const} \omega(\delta)\} $ for an arbitrary modulus of continuity $\omega$,…
