In this paper, we apply our minimax theory ([4], [5], [6]) with the one developed by A. Moameni in [2] to formalize a general scheme giving the multiplicity of critical points. Here is a sample of application of the scheme to a critical…
This paper establishes a theory of nonlinear spectral decompositions by considering the eigenvalue problem related to an absolutely one-homogeneous functional in an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space. This approach is both motivated by…
We consider the plasmonic eigenvalue problem for a general 2D domain with a curvilinear corner, studying the spectral theory of the Neumann--Poincar\'e operator of the boundary. A limiting absorption principle is proved, valid when the…
Quantifying the eigenvalue spectra of large random matrices allows one to understand the factors that contribute to the stability of dynamical systems with many interacting components. This work explores the effect that the interaction…
We present a new oscillation criterion to determine whether the number of eigenvalues below the essential spectrum of a given Jacobi operator is finite or not. As an application we show that Kenser's criterion for Jacobi operators follows…
We consider a positive and power-bounded linear operator $T$ on $L^p$ over a finite measure space and prove that, if $TL^p \subseteq L^q$ for some $q > p$, then the essential spectral radius of $T$ is strictly smaller than $1$. As a special…
We present a model for spectral theory of families of selfadjoint operators, and their corresponding unitary one-parameter groups (acting in Hilbert space.) The models allow for a scale of complexity, indexed by the natural numbers…
The system of equations for water waves, when linearized about equilibrium of a fluid body with a varying bottom boundary, is described by a spectral problem for the Dirichlet -- Neumann operator of the unperturbed free surface. This…
Important spectral features, such as the emptiness of the residual spectrum, countability of the point spectrum, provided the space is separable, and a characterization of spectral gap at $0$, known to hold for bounded scalar type spectral…
We show how the spectrum of normal discrete short-range infinite-volume operators can be approximated with two-sided error control using only data from finite-sized local patches. As a corollary, we prove the computability of the spectrum…
This paper concerns spectral properties of linear Schr\"odinger operators under oscillatory high-amplitude potentials on bounded domains. Depending on the degree of disorder, we prove the existence of spectral gaps amongst the lowermost…
In \cite{Os} a general spectral approximation theory was developed for compact operators on a Banach space which does not require that the operators be self-adjoint and also provides a first order correction term. Here we extend some of the…
This paper is dedicated to the spectral optimization problem \begin{equation*} \min \big\{ \lambda_1(\Omega)+\cdots+\lambda_k(\Omega) + \Lambda|\Omega| \ : \ \Omega \subset D \text{ quasi-open} \big\} \end{equation*} where…
We consider a problem in eigenvalue optimization, in particular finding a local minimizer of the spectral abscissa - the value of a parameter that results in the smallest value of the largest real part of the spectrum of a matrix system.…
We consider equivariant continuous families of discrete one-dimensional operators over arbitrary dynamical systems. We introduce the concept of a pseudo-ergodic element of a dynamical system. We then show that all operators associated to…
Let $H_0$ be a periodic operator on $\R^+$(or periodic Jacobi operator on $\N$). It is known that the absolutely continuous spectrum of $H_0$ is consisted of spectral bands $\cup[\alpha_l,\beta_l]$. Under the assumption that $\limsup_{x\to…
We study the spectral theory and inverse problem on asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds. The main subjects are as follows: (1)Location of the essential spectrum. (2)Absence of eigenvalues embedded in the continuous spectrum. (3)Limiting…
A model operator $H$ corresponding to a three-particle discrete Schr\"odinger operator on a lattice $\Z^3$ is studied. The essential spectrum is described via the spectrum of two Friedrichs models with parameters $h_\alpha(p),$…
The purpose of this paper is to prove that the spectrum of the non-self-adjoint one-particle Hamiltonian proposed by J. Feinberg and A. Zee (Phys. Rev. E 59 (1999), 6433--6443) has interior points. We do this by first recalling that the…
