Let $L$ be a linear, closed, densely defined in a Hilbert space operator, not necessarily selfadjoint. Consider the corresponding wave equations &(1) \quad \ddot{w}+ Lw=0, \quad w(0)=0,\quad \dot{w}(0)=f, \quad \dot{w}=\frac{dw}{dt}, \quad…

We investigate spectral properties of limit-periodic Schr\"odinger operators in $\ell^2(\Z)$. Our goal is to exhibit as rich a spectral picture as possible. We regard limit-periodic potentials as generated by continuous sampling along the…

The recently introduced concept of a spectral shift operator is applied in several instances. Explicit applications include Krein's trace formula for pairs of self-adjoint operators, the Birman-Solomyak spectral averaging formula and its…

For a large class of integral operators or second order differential operators, their isospectral (or cospectral) operators are constructed explicitly in terms of $h$-transform (duality). This provides us a simple way to extend the known…

It is shown that the nonselfadjoint (and non-normal) linear ordinary differential operators of a certain class are spectral operators of scalar type in the sense of Dunford and Bade. Operators of this kind appear in physical problems such…

Ordinary and partial differential operators with an indefinite weight function can be viewed as bounded perturbations of non-negative operators in Krein spaces. Under the assumption that 0 and $\infty$ are not singular critical points of…

This note deals with the direct and inverse spectral analysis for a class of infinite band symmetric matrices. This class corresponds to operators arising from difference quations with usual and inner boundary conditions. We give a…

We provide a description of the spectrum and essential spectra of invertible weighted composition operators acting in some algebras of smooth functions on the interval.

In this paper we perform a numerical study of the spectra, eigenstates, and Lyapunov exponents of the skew-shift counterpart to Harper's equation. This study is motivated by various conjectures on the spectral theory of these…

First we study the spectral singularity at infinity and investigate the connections of the spectral singularities and the spectrality of the Hill operator. Then we consider the spectral expansion when there is not the spectral singularity…

In this paper, we study the problem of scattering by several strictly convex obstacles, with smooth boundary and satisfying a non eclipse condition. We show, in dimension 2 only, the existence of a spectral gap for the meromorphic…

We consider perturbations of quasi-periodic Schr\"odinger operators on the integer lattice with analytic sampling functions by decaying potentials and seek decay conditions under which various spectral properties are preserved. In the…

We investigate the spectral properties of a class of weighted shift semigroups associated to abstract transport equations with a Lipschitz--continuous vector field with no--reentry boundary conditions. We illustrate our results with various…

We derive necessary and sufficient conditions for a one-dimensional periodic Schr\"odinger (i.e., Hill) operator H=-d^2/dx^2+V in L^2(R) to be a spectral operator of scalar type. The conditions demonstrate the remarkable fact that the…

A new approach to normal operators in real Hilbert spaces is discussed, and a spectral representation is obtained, derived directly from the complex case. The results are then applied to quaternionic normal operators, regarded as a special…

In the smooth scattering theory framework, we consider a pair of self-adjoint operators $H_0$, $H$ and discuss the spectral projections of these operators corresponding to the interval $(-\infty,\lambda)$. The purpose of the paper is to…
