The survey is devoted to numerical solution of the fractional equation $A^\alpha u=f$, $0 < \alpha <1$, where $A$ is a symmetric positive definite operator corresponding to a second order elliptic boundary value problem in a bounded domain…

In this note we set up the elliptic and the parabolic Dirichlet problem for linear nonlocal operators. As opposed to the classical case of second order differential operators, here the "boundary data" are prescribed on the complement of a…

We study the behavior of the limit of the spectrum of a non self-adjoint Sturm-Liouville operator with analytic potential as the semi-classical parameter $h\to 0$. We get a good description of the spectrum and limit spectrum near $\infty$.…

Optimal control problems with symmetries often admit a non stationary turnpike property called trim turnpike, which characterizes the convergence of optimal solutions to certain symmetry induced trajectories called trim primitives. In this…

A recent development in random matrix theory, the intrinsic freeness principle, establishes that the spectrum of very general random matrices behaves as that of an associated free operator. This reduces the study of such random matrices to…

Short-ranged and line-gapped non-hermitian Hamiltonians have strong topological invariants given by an index of an associated Fredholm operator. It is shown how these invariants can be accessed via the signature of a suitable spectral…

In this paper, we consider the problem of steering a family of independent, structurally identical, finite-dimensional stochastic linear systems with variation in system parameters between initial and target states of interest by using an…

We consider special elliptic operators in functional spaces on manifolds with a boundary which has some singular points. Such an operator can be represented by a sum of operators, and for a Fredholm property of an initial operator one needs…

We analyze the semiclassical $d$-dimensional Schr\"{o}dinger operator in the continuum $ \frac{1}{2} \Delta + \lambda_N^2 V$ discretized on a mesh with spacing proportional to $1/N$. The semi-classical parameter $\lambda_N$ is chosen as…

Consider quantum harmonic oscillator, perturbed by an even almost-periodic complex-valued potential with bounded derivative and primitive. Suppose that we know the first correction to the spectral asymptotics $\{\Delta\mu_n\}_{n=0}^\infty$…

We study boundary value problems for first-order elliptic differential operators on manifolds with compact boundary. The adapted boundary operator need not be selfadjoint and the boundary condition need not be pseudo-local. We show the…

In this paper we consider eigenvalues asymptotics of the energy operator in the one of the most interesting models of quantum physics, describing an interaction between two-level system and harmonic oscillator. The energy operator of this…

We study a commonly-used second-kind boundary-integral equation for solving the Helmholtz exterior Neumann problem at high frequency, where, writing $\Gamma$ for the boundary of the obstacle, the relevant integral operators map…

In this work, we investigate the spectral problem $Au = {\lambda}u$ where $A$ is a fractional elliptic operator involving left- and right-sided Riemann-Liouville derivatives. These operators are nonlocal and nonsymmetric, however, share…

We study the asymptotic behaviour of the eigenvalues of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on a compact hypersurface in \mathds{R}^{n+1} as it is flattened into a singular double-sided flat hypersurface. We show that the limit spectral problem…

We develop a calculus of variations for functionals which are defined on a set of non differentiable curves. We first extend the classical differential calculus in a quantum calculus, which allows us to define a complex operator, called the…

We consider the variational discretization of a linear-quadratic optimal control problem with pointwise control and state constraints. In order to allow for a Fr\'echet smooth norm, the problem is reformulated by means of a reflexive…

In the setting of several commuting operators on a Hilbert space one defines the notions of invertibility and Fredholmness in terms of the associated Koszul complex. The index problem then consists of computing the Euler characteristic of…

In this paper we study $2$nd order $L^\infty$ variational problems, through seeking to minimise a supremal functional involving the Hessian of admissible functions as well as lower-order terms. Specifically, given a bounded domain…

We study linear boundary-value problems for systems of first-order ordinary differential equations with the most general boundary conditions in the normed spaces of continuously differentiable functions on a finite closed interval. The…
