We obtain sharp asymptotic formulas for the eigenvalues and norming constants of Sturm-Liouville operators associated with the differential expression \[ -\frac{d^2}{dx^2} + x + q(x), \quad x\in [0,\infty), \] together with the boundary…

This paper deals with differential equations of the form $$ \tau(y)- \lambda ^{2m} \varrho(x) y = 0, \quad \tau(y) =\sum_{k,\,s=0}^m(\tau_{k,\,s}(x)y^{(m-k)}(x))^{(m-s)}, $$ where $n=2m\geqslant 2$, $\lambda$ is the large complex parameter,…
This is the second part of a series of papers dealing with an extensive class of analytic difference operators admitting reflectionless eigenfunctions. In the first part, the pertinent difference operators and their reflectionless…
We study the dispersionless version of the recently introduced constrained Toda hierarchy. Like the Toda lattice itself, it admits three equivalent formulations: the formulation in terms of Lax equations, the formulation of the…
In this paper, we study equations driven by a non-local integrodifferential operator $\mathcal{L}_K$ with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. More precisely, we study the problem \[ \begin{aligned} &- \mathcal{L}_K u + V(x)u =…
Lax pairs with operator valued coefficients, which are explicitly connected by means of an additional condition, are considered. This condition is proved to be covariant with respect to the Darboux transformation of a general form.…
The dynamics of finite nonperiodic Toda lattice is an isospectral deformation of the finite three--diagonal Jacobi matrix. It is known since the work of Stieltjes that such matrices are in one--to--one correspondence with their Weyl…
Our aim in the present work is to develop approximations for the collisional dynamics of traveling waves in the context of granular chains in the presence of precompression. To that effect, we aim to quantify approximations of the relevant…
Let $P$ be a symmetric $2a$-order classical strongly elliptic pseudodifferential operator with even symbol $p(x,\xi )$ on $R^n$ ($0<a<1$), for example a perturbation of $(-\Delta )^a$. Let $\Omega \subset R^n$ be bounded, and let $P_D$ be…
We study asymptotic spectral properties of the generalized Hilbert $L$-matrix \[ L_{n}(\nu)=\left(\frac{1}{\max(i,j)+\nu}\right)_{i,j=0}^{n-1}, \] for large order $n$. First, for general $\nu\neq0,-1,-2,\dots$, we deduce the asymptotic…
We present certain results on the direct and inverse spectral theory of the Jacobi operator with complex periodic coefficients. For instance, we show that any $N$-th degree polynomial whose leading coefficient is $(-1)^N$ is the Hill…
We study asymptotic behavior for determinants of $n\times n$ Toeplitz matrices corresponding to symbols with two Fisher-Hartwig singularities at the distance $2t\ge0$ from each other on the unit circle. We obtain large $n$ asymptotics which…
The article considers lattices of the two-dimensional Toda type, which can be interpreted as dressing chains for spatially two-dimensional generalizations of equations of the class of nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations. The well-known…
We consider dissipative Schroedinger operators of the form $H=-\Delta+V(x)$ on $L^2(\mathbb R^3)$, with $V(x)$ a complex, bounded and decaying potential with a non-positive imaginary part. We prove a topological version of Levinson's…
We consider functions of Wiener--Hopf type operators on the Hilbert space $L^2(\mathbb R^d)$. It has been known for a long time that the quasi-classical asymptotics for traces of resulting operators strongly depend on the smoothness of the…
This paper considers $N\times N$ matrices of the form $A_\gamma =A+ \gamma B$, where $A$ is self-adjoint, $\gamma \in C$ and $B$ is a non-self-adjoint perturbation of $A$. We obtain some monodromy-type results relating the spectral…
We determine the asymptotics of the block Toeplitz determinants $\det T_n(\phi)$ as $n\to\infty$ for $N\times N$ matrix-valued piecewise continuous functions $\phi$ with a finitely many jumps under mild additional conditions. In particular,…
This paper is essentially devoted to the study of the minimal eigenvalue $\lambda_{N,\alpha}$ of the Toepllitz matrice $T_N(\varphi_{\alpha})$ where $\varphi_{\alpha}(e^{i \theta})=|1- e^{i \theta} |^{2\alpha} c_{1}(e^{i \theta})$ with…
We consider the Neumann-Poincar'e (double layer potential) operator in 3D elasicity on a smooth closed surface. Its essential spectrum consists of 3 points. We find the asymptotics of sequences of eigenvalues converging to these three…
