In this paper we solve the problem of approximating functionals $(\varphi(A)x, f)$ (where $\varphi(A)$ is some function of self-adjoint operator $A$) on the class of elements of a Hilbert space that is defined with the help of another…
Motivated by Fredholm theory, we develop a framework to establish the convergence of spectral methods for operator equations $\mathcal L u = f$. The framework posits the existence of a left-Fredholm regulator for $\mathcal L$ and the…
We present a streamlined approach for generalized strong and norm convergence of self-adjoint operators in different Hilbert spaces. In particular, we establish convergence of associated (semi-)groups, (essential) spectra and spectral…
We improve known perturbation results for self-adjoint operators in Hilbert spaces and prove spectral enclosures for diagonally dominant $J$-self-adjoint operator matrices. These are used in the proof of the central result, a perturbation…
We describe majorization between selfadjoint operators in a $\sigma$-finite II$_\infty$ factor $(\mathcal{M},\tau)$ in terms of simple spectral relations. For a diffuse abelian von Neumann subalgebra $\mathcal{A}\subset \mathcal{M}$ with…
Given an n-tuple {b_1, ..., b_n} of self-adjoint operators in a finite von Neumann algebra M and a faithful, normal tracial state tau on M, we define a map Psi from M to R^{n+1} by Psi(a) = (tau(a), tau(b_1a), ..., tau(b_na)). The image of…
In this work, we study the inverse spectral problem, using the Weyl matrix as the input data, for the matrix Schrodinger operator on the half-line with the boundary condition being the form of the most general self-adjoint. We prove the…
We study the spectral bounds of self-adjoint operators on the Hilbert space of square-integrable functions, arising from the representation theory of the Heisenberg group. Interestingly, starting either with the von Neumann lattice or the…
We consider a family of compact manifolds which shrinks with respect to an appropriate parameter to a graph. The main result is that the spectrum of the Laplace-Beltrami operator converges to the spectrum of the (differential) Laplacian on…
We discuss abstract Birman-Schwinger principles to study spectra of self-adjoint operators subject to small non-self-adjoint perturbations in a factorised form. In particular, we extend and in part improve a classical result by Kato which…
We establish a spectral duality for certain unbounded operators in Hilbert space. The class of operators includes discrete graph Laplacians arising from infinite weighted graphs. The problem in this context is to establish a practical…
On a fairly general class of Riemannian manifolds M, we prove lower estimates in terms of the Ricci curvature for the spectral bound (when M has infinite volume) and for the spectral gap (when M has finite volume) for the Laplace-Beltrami…
We investigate quantum graphs with infinitely many vertices and edges without the common restriction on the geometry of the underlying metric graph that there is a positive lower bound on the lengths of its edges. Our central result is a…
Let $$L_0=\suml_{j=1}^nM_j^0D_j+M_0^0,\,\,\,\,D_j=\frac{1}{i}\frac{\pa}{\paxj}, \quad x\in\Rn,$$ be a constant coefficient first-order partial differential system, where the matrices $M_j^0$ are Hermitian. It is assumed that the homogeneous…
Spectral theory and functional calculus for unbounded self-adjoint operators on a Hilbert space are usually treated through von Neumann's Cayley transform. Based on ideas of Woronowicz, we redevelop this theory from the point of view of…
In mathematical physics, the gradient operator with nonconstant coefficients encompasses various models, including Fourier's law for heat propagation and Fick's first law, that relates the diffusive flux to the gradient of the…
We present an order-theoretical fixed point theorem for increasing multivalued operators suitable for the method of sub-supersolutions and its application to the following multivalued quasi-variational inclusion: Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb…
For a $n\times n$ unitary matrix $u=e^z$ with $z$ skew-Hermitian, the angles of $u$ are the arguments of its spectrum, i.e. the spectrum of $-iz$. For $1\le m\le n$, we show that $s_m(t)$, the sum of the first $m$ angles of the path…
We consider the Schr\"odinger operator $$-\frac{d^2}{d x^2} + V \qquad \mbox{on an interval}~~[a,b]~\mbox{with Dirichlet boundary conditions},$$ where $V$ is bounded from below and prove a lower bound on the first eigenvalue $\lambda_1$ in…
We consider symmetric second-order differential operators with real coefficients such that the corresponding differential equation is in the limit circle case at infinity. Our goal is to construct the theory of self-adjoint realizations of…
