In this article, we introduce a general theoretical framework to analyze non-consistent approximations of the discrete eigenmodes of a self-adjoint operator. We focus in particular on the discrete eigenvalues laying in spectral gaps. We…

The method of second order relative spectra has been shown to reliably approximate the discrete spectrum for a self-adjoint operator. We extend the method to normal operators and find optimal convergence rates for eigenvalues and…

We consider the problem of how to compute eigenvalues of a self-adjoint operator when a direct application of the Galerkin (finite-section) method is unreliable. The last two decades have seen the development of the so-called quadratic…

It is well known that the standard projection methods allow one to recover the whole spectrum of a bounded self-adjoint operator but they often lead to spectral pollution, i.e. to spurious eigenvalues lying in the gaps of the essential…

We consider the phenomenon of spectral pollution arising in calculation of spectra of self-adjoint operators by projection methods. We suggest a strategy of dealing with spectral pollution by using the so-called second order relative…

We consider the Galerkin method for approximating the spectrum of an operator $T+A$ where $T$ is semi-bounded self-adjoint and $A$ satisfies a relative compactness condition. We show that the method is reliable in all regions where it is…

The convergence of the so-called quadratic method for computing eigenvalue enclosures of general self-adjoint operators is examined. Explicit asymptotic bounds for convergence to isolated eigenvalues are found. These bounds turn out to…

This paper addresses two different but related questions regarding an unbounded symmetric tridiagonal operator: its self-adjointness and the approximation of its spectrum by the eigenvalues of its finite truncations. The sufficient…

We discuss the problems arising when computing eigenvalues of self-adjoint operators which lie in a gap between two parts of the essential spectrum. Spectral pollution, i.e. the apparent existence of eigenvalues in numerical computations,…

A lower semi-definite self-adjoint linear operator in a Hilbert space is taken whose discrete spectrum is not empty and comprises at least several eigenvalues $\lambda_{min}=\lambda_1\leqslant\ldots\leqslant\lambda_m<\sigma_{ess}$. The…

Spectral properties of bounded linear operators play a crucial role in several areas of mathematics and physics. For each self-adjoint, trace-class operator $O$ we define a set $\Lambda_n\subset \mathbb{R}$, and we show that it converges to…

This text is a survey of recent results obtained by the author and collaborators on different problems for non-self-adjoint operators. The topics are: Kramers-Fokker-Planck type operators, spectral asymptotics in two dimensions and Weyl…

We introduce a framework for subspace methods which approximate the spectra of self-adjoint, unbounded operators in a local region. Using the projection-valued measure, we derive integrated spectral inequalities that also apply to unbounded…

In the first part of this manuscript a relationship between the spectrum of self-adjoint operator matrices and the spectra of their diagonal entries is found. This leads to enclosures for spectral points and in particular, enclosures for…

We have developed a method for constructing spectral approximations for convolution operators of Fredholm type. The algorithm we propose is numerically stable and takes advantage of the recurrence relations satisfied by the entries of such…

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…

We establish spectral convergence results of approximations of unbounded non-selfadjoint linear operators with compact resolvents by operators that converge in generalized strong resolvent sense. The aim is to establish general assumptions…

Using the resolvent operator, we develop an algorithm for computing smoothed approximations of spectral measures associated with self-adjoint operators. The algorithm can achieve arbitrarily high-orders of convergence in terms of a…

We give a new fast method for evaluating sprectral approximations of nonlinear polynomial functionals. We prove that the new algorithm is convergent if the functions considered are smooth enough, under a general assumption on the spectral…
