The spectral problem (A + V(z))\psi=z\psi is considered with A, a self-adjoint operator. The perturbation V(z) is assumed to depend on the spectral parameter z as resolvent of another self-adjoint operator A': V(z)=-B(A'-z)^{-1}B^{*}. It is…
We revisit the concept of spectral averaging and point out its origin in connection with one-parameter subgroups of $SL_2(\bbR)$ and the corresponding M\"obius transformations. In particular, we identify exponential Herglotz representations…
We examine two kinds of spectral theoretic situations: First, we recall the case of self-adjoint half-line Schr\"odinger operators on $[a,\infty)$, $a\in\mathbb{R}$, with a regular finite end point $a$ and the case of Schr\"odinger…
Applying perturbation theory methods, the absence of the point spectrum for some nonselfadjoint integro-differential operators is investigated. The considered differential operators are of arbitrary order and act in either…
We study the spectrum of one dimensional integral operators in bounded real intervals of length $2L$, for value of $L$ large. The integral operators are obtained by linearizing a non local evolution equation for a non conserved order…
In this expository article some spectral properties of self-adjoint differential operators are investigated. The main objective is to illustrate and (partly) review how one can construct domains or potentials such that the essential or…
We introduce the notion of $K$-invariant operators, $S$, (in a Hilbert space) with respect to a bounded and boundedly invertible operator $K$ defined via $K^*SK=S$. Conditions such that self-adjoint and maximally dissipative extensions of…
We study adjointable, bounded operators on the direct sum of two copies of the standard Hilbert C*-module over a unital C*-algebra A that are given by upper triangular 2 by 2 operator matrices. Using the definition of A-Fredholm and…
On a star graph $G$ with $n = n_+ + n_-$ edges of unit length, we study the operator $-\frac{\mathrm{d}^2}{\mathrm{d} x^2}$ on $n_+$ and $\frac{\mathrm{d}^2}{\mathrm{d} x^2}$ on $n_-$ edges equipped with Dirichlet boundary conditions at the…
We consider compact locally symmetric spaces $\Gamma\backslash G/H$ where $G/H$ is a non-compact semisimple symmetric space and $\Gamma$ is a discrete subgroup of $G$. We discuss some features of the joint spectrum of the (commutative)…
In this note we review spectral properties of magnetic random Schroedinger operators H_omega=H_0+V_omega + U_l + U_r defined on L^2(R x [-L/2,L/2],dx dy) with periodic boundary conditions along y. U_l and U_r are two confining potentials…
We prove sufficient conditions for Hausdorff convergence of the spectra of sequences of closed operators defined on varying Hilbert spaces and converging in norm-resolvent sense, i.e. $\|J_\varepsilon(1+A_\varepsilon)^{-1} -…
We give a spectral description of the semi-classical Schrodinger operator with a piecewise linear, complex valued potential. Moreover, using these results, we show how an arbitrarily small bounded perturbation of a non-self-adjoint operator…
A new geometric proof of the spectral theorem for unbounded self-adjoint operators A in a Hilbert space H is given based on a splitting of A in positive and negative parts A+ and A-. For both operators A+ and A- the spectral family can be…
We perform the spectral analysis of a family of Jacobi operators $J(\alpha)$ depending on a complex parameter $\alpha$. If $|\alpha|\neq1$ the spectrum of $J(\alpha)$ is discrete and formulas for eigenvalues and eigenvectors are established…
We introduce a framework for implementing quantum operations as steady states of a subsystem in an extended Hilbert space. Each operation has a spectral criterion for reaching the steady state. This adds a `spectral switch' mechanism to the…
Given two possibly unbounded selfadjoint operators A and G such that the resolvent sets of AG and GA are non-empty, it is shown that the operator AG has a spectral function on IR with singularities if there exists a non-zero polynomial p…
The $J$-matrix method is extended to difference and $q$-difference operators and is applied to several explicit differential, difference, $q$-difference and second order Askey-Wilson type operators. The spectrum and the spectral measures…
Using simple commutator relations, we obtain several trace identities involving eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of an abstract self-adjoint operator acting in a Hilbert space. Applications involve abstract universal estimates for the…
Suppose $\Cal J$ is a two-sided quasi-Banach ideal of compact operators on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space $\Cal H$. We show that an operator $T\in\Cal J$ can be expressed as finite linear combination of commutators $[A,B]$…
