If $T$ is a (densely defined) self-adjoint operator acting on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ and $I$ stands for the identity operator, we introduce the delta function operator $\lambda \mapsto \delta \left(\lambda I-T\right) $ at…
In this article, we consider the Dirac operator with constant magnetic field in $\mathbb R^2$. Its spectrum consists of eigenvalues of infinite multiplicities, known as the Landau-Dirac levels. Under compactly supported perturbations, we…
Consider the Hill operator $L(v) = - d^2/dx^2 + v(x) $ on $[0,\pi]$ with Dirichlet, periodic or antiperiodic boundary conditions; then for large enough $n$ close to $n^2 $ there are one Dirichlet eigenvalue $\mu_n$ and two periodic (if $n$…
We consider a Dirac-type operator $D_P$ on a vector bundle $V$ over a compact Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ with a nonempty boundary. The operator $D_P$ is specified by a boundary condition $P(u|_{\p M})=0$ where $P$ is a projector which may…

We study the eigenvalue problem for a one-dimensional Dirac operator with a spatially varying ``mass'' term. It is well-known that when the mass function has the form of a kink, or \emph{domain wall}, transitioning between strictly positive…

If $X$ is a separable infinite dimensional Banach space, we construct a bounded and linear operator $R$ on $X$ such that $$ A_R=\{x \in X, \|R^tx\| \rightarrow \infty\} $$ is not dense and has non empty interior with the additional property…
We study sub-Dirac operators that are associated with left-invariant bracket-generating sub-Riemannian structures on compact quotients of nilpotent semi-direct products $G=\mathbb{R}^n\rtimes_A\mathbb{R}$. We will prove that these operators…
We derive upper eigenvalue bounds for the Dirac operator of a closed hypersurface in a manifold with Killing spinors such as Euclidean space, spheres or hyperbolic space. The bounds involve the Willmore functional. Relations with the…
We analyze the limit of the spectrum of a geometric Dirac-type operator under a collapse with bounded diameter and bounded sectional curvature. In the case of a smooth limit space B, we show that the limit of the spectrum is given by the…
We characterise regions in the complex plane that contain all non-embedded eigenvalues of a perturbed periodic Dirac operator on the real line with real-valued periodic potential and a generally non-symmetric matrix-valued perturbation V .…
The concept of determinant for a linear operator in an infinite-dimensional space is addressed, by using the derivative of the operator's zeta-function (following Ray and Singer) and, eventually, through its zeta-function trace. A little…
The aim of this paper is to study the existence of eigenvalues in the gap of the essential spectrum of the one-dimensional Dirac operator in the presence of a bounded potential. We employ a generalized variational principle to prove…
In this paper, we study the spectrality of the non-self-adjoint Dirac operator L(Q) with a complex-valued periodic matrix potential Q. We establish a condition on the off-diagonal elements of the matrix Q under which L(Q) is an…
Using the example of a Dirac particle in external static fields, Dirac theory is reformulated as a one-particle quantum theory in the space of normalized two-component spinors. In this formulation, the Dirac operator ``splits'' into two…
