We show that every Hankel operator $H$ is unitarily equivalent to a pseudo-differential operator $A$ of a special structure acting in the space $L^2 ({\Bbb R}) $. As an example, we consider integral operators $H$ in the space $L^2 ({\Bbb…
In this paper we perform an explicit diagonalization of Hankel integral operators $ K^{(0)}, K^{(1)}, K^{(2)}, ... $ It turns out that each of these operators has a simple purely absolutely continuous spectrum filling in the interval $…
We develop the spectral and scattering theory for self-adjoint Hankel operators $H$ with piecewise continuous symbols. In this case every jump of the symbol gives rise to a band of the absolutely continuous spectrum of $H$. We construct…
A semi-infinite weighted Hankel matrix with entries defined in terms of basic hypergeometric series is explicitly diagonalized as an operator on $\ell^{2}(\mathbb{N}_{0})$. The approach uses the fact that the operator commutes with a…
We consider a class of Hankel operators $H$ realized in the space $L^2 ({\Bbb R}_{+}) $ as integral operators with kernels $h(t+s)$ where $h(t)=P (\ln t) t ^{-1}$ and $P(X)= X^n+p_{n-1} X^{n-1}+\cdots$ is an arbitrary real polynomial of…
The Carleman operator is defined as integral operator with kernel $(t+s)^{-1}$ in the space $L^2 ({\Bbb R}_{+}) $. This is the simplest example of a Hankel operator which can be explicitly diagonalized. Here we study a class of self-adjoint…
We study spectral properties of the Carleman operator (the Hankel operator with kernel $h_{0}(t)=t^{-1}$) and, in particular, find an explicit formula for its resolvent. Then we consider perturbations of the Carleman operator $H_{0}$ by…
In the paper, we prove an analogue of the Kato-Rosenblum theorem in a semifinite von Neumann algebra. Let $\mathcal{M}$ be a countably decomposable, properly infinite, semifinite von Neumann algebra acting on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$…
For a wide class of unbounded integral Hankel operators on the positive half-line, we prove essential self-adjointness on the set of smooth compactly supported functions.
We consider the class of bounded self-adjoint Hankel operators $\mathbf H$, realised as integral operators on the positive semi-axis, that commute with dilations by a fixed factor. By analogy with the spectral theory of periodic…
We show that total multiplicities of negative and positive spectra of a self-adjoint Hankel operator $H$ with kernel $h(t)$ and of an operator of multiplication by some real function $s(x)$ coincide. In particular, $\pm H\geq 0$ if and only…
Let $H_0$, $H$ be a pair of self-adjoint operators for which the standard assumptions of the smooth version of scattering theory hold true. We give an explicit description of the absolutely continuous spectrum of the operator…
Suppose that $\Gamma$ is a continuous and self-adjoint Hankel operator on $L^2(0, \infty)$ and that $Lf=-(d/dx(a(x)df/dx))+b(x)f(x)$ with $a(0)=0$. If $a$ and $b$ are both quadratic, hyperbolic or trigonometric functions, and $\phi$…
For self-adjoint Hankel operators of finite rank, we find an explicit formula for the total multiplicity of their negative and positive spectra. We also show that very strong perturbations, for example, a perturbation by the Carleman…
The paper is devoted to operators given formally by the expression \begin{equation*} -\partial_x^2+\big(\alpha-\frac14\big)x^{-2}. \end{equation*} This expression is homogeneous of degree minus 2. However, when we try to realize it as a…
We consider compact Hankel operators realized in $\ell^2(\mathbb Z_+)$ as infinite matrices $\Gamma$ with matrix elements $h(j+k)$. Roughly speaking, we show that, for all $\alpha>0$, the singular values $s_{n}$ of $\Gamma$ satisfy the…
In this article we consider the generalized integral operators acting on the Hilbert space $H^2$. We characterize when these operators are uniform, strong and weakly asymptotic Toeplitz and Hankel operators. Moreover we completely describe…
In this note, we find sufficient conditions for an operator with kernel of the form $A(x)B(y)-A(x)B(y)/(x-y)$ (which we call a Tracy-Widom type operator) to be the square of a Hankel operator. We consider two contexts: infinite matrices on…
Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a separable Hilbert space and let $A^{2}_{\varphi}(\mathcal{H})$ be the $\mathcal{H}$-valued Bergman spaces with exponential weights. In the present paper, we give the complete characterizations for the boundedness and…
The goal of this note is to study the spectrum of a self-adjoint convolution operator in $L^2(\mathbb R^d)$ with an integrable kernel that is perturbed by an essentially bounded real-valued potential tending to zero at infinity. We show…
