We study linear time dispersive and dissipative systems. Very often such systems are not conservative and the standard spectral theory can not be applied. We develop a mathematically consistent framework allowing (i) to constructively…
Starting from a symmetrization and extension of the basic definitions and results of dissipativity theory we obtain new results on cyclo-dissipativity; in particular their external characterization and description of the set of storage…
We establish the various properties as well as diverse relations of the ascent and descent spectra for bounded linear operators. We specially focus on the theory of subspectrum. Furthermore, we construct a new concept of convergence for…
In this paper we obtain several extension properties for monotone and sublinear operators. The results obtained generalize those known for positive and linear operators.
Let $A$ and $(-\widetilde{A})$ be dissipative operators on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ and let $(A,\widetilde{A})$ form a dual pair, i.e. $A\subset\widetilde{A}^*$, resp.\ $\widetilde{A}\subset A^*$. We present a method of determining the…
This is a series of 5 lectures around the common subject of the construction of self-adjoint extensions of symmetric operators and its applications to Quantum Physics. We will try to offer a brief account of some recent ideas in the theory…
This work deals with the functional model for a class of extensions of symmetric operators and its applications to the theory of wave scattering. In terms of Boris Pavlov's spectral form of this model, we find explicit formulae for the…
This paper investigates quasi-selfadjoint extensions of dual pairs of linear relations in Hilbert spaces. Some properties of dual pairs of linear relations are given and an Hermitian linear relation associated with a dual pair of linear…
The techniques of dispersion relations match very well with those of effective field theory. I describe the techniques for using dispersion relations effectively, and give some pedagogical examples to illustrate the range of applications.
There is constructed and considered the extension of classical Diriclet operator corresponding to uniformly log-concave measure in the space of symmetric differential forms. Sufficient conditions for its essential self-adjointness in…
This is a short survey on the connection between general extension theories and the study of realizations of elliptic operators A on smooth domains in R^n, n > 1. The theory of pseudodifferential boundary problems has turned out to be very…
The novel concept of spectral diffusivity is introduced to analyse the dissipative properties of continua. The dissipative components of a linear system of evolution equations are separated into noninteracting parts. This separation is…
The following version of the Lumer-Phillips is proved: a surjective dissipative operator is m-dissipative and invertible. The result remains true if dissipative linear relations (i.e multivalued operators) are considered. The main purpose…
For scattering systems consisting of a (family of) maximal dissipative extension(s) and a selfadjoint extension of a symmetric operator with finite deficiency indices, the spectral shift function is expressed in terms of an abstract…
This expository essay discusses a finite dimensional approach to dilation theory. How much of dilation theory can be worked out within the realm of linear algebra? It turns out that some interesting and simple results can be obtained. These…
We consider dissipative operators $A$ of the form $A=S+iV$, where both $S$ and $V\geq 0$ are assumed to be symmetric but neither of them needs to be (essentially) selfadjoint. After a brief discussion of the relation of the operators $S\pm…
Given two different self-adjoint extensions of the same symmetric operator, we analyse the intersection of their point spectra. Some simple examples are provided.
Various notions of dissipativity type for partial differential operators and their applications are surveyed. We deal with functional dissipativity and its particular case $L^p$-dissipativity. Most of the results are due to the authors.
Given a dissipative operator $A$ on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ such that the quadratic form $f\mapsto \mbox{Im}\langle f,Af\rangle$ is closable, we give a necessary and sufficient condition for an extension of $A$ to still be…
Some open questions exist with fluctuation-induced forces between extended dipoles. Conventional intuition derives from large-separation perturbative approximations to dispersion force theory. Here we present a full non-perturbative theory.…
