We study spectral properties of the Carleman operator (the Hankel operator with kernel $h_{0}(t)=t^{-1}$) and, in particular, find an explicit formula for its resolvent. Then we consider perturbations of the Carleman operator $H_{0}$ by…
A non-Hermitean random matrix model proposed a few years ago has a remarkably intricate spectrum. Various attempts have been made to understand the spectrum, but even its dimension is not known. Using the Dyson-Schmidt equation, we show…
We determine the Schatten class for the compact resolvent of Dirichlet realizations, in unbounded domains, of a class of non-selfadjoint differential operators. This class consists of operators that can be obtained via analytic dilation…
We are interested in the nature of the spectrum of the one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operator $$ - \frac{d^2}{dx^2}-Fx + \sum_{n \in \mathbb{Z}}g_n \delta(x-n) \qquad\text{in } L^2(\mathbb{R}) $$ with $F>0$ and two different choices of the…
We compare the bottom of the spectrum of discrete and continuous Schr\"odinger operators with periodic potentials with barriers at the boundaries of their fundamental domains. Our results show that these energy levels coincide in the…
We describe the spectrum of a non-self-adjoint elliptic system on a finite interval. Under certain conditions we find that the eigenvalues form a discrete set and converge asymptotically at infinity to one of several straight lines. The…
In dimension greater than or equal to three, we investigate the spectrum of a Schr{\"o}dinger operator with a $\delta$-interaction supported on a cone whose cross section is the sphere of co-dimension two. After decomposing into fibers, we…
We consider the probem of gauging discrete symmetries. All valid constraints on such symmetries can be understood in the low energy theory in terms of instantons. We note that string perturbation theory often exhibits global discrete…
We consider selfadjoint operators obtained by pasting a finite number of boundary relations with one-dimensional boundary space. A typical example of such an operator is the Schr\"odinger operator on a star-graph with a finite number of…
The discrete one-dimensional Schr\"odinger operator is studied in the finite interval of length $N=2 M$ with the Dirichlet boundary conditions and an arbitrary potential even with respect to the spacial reflections. It is shown, that the…
A typical result of the paper is the following. Let $H_\gamma=H_0 +\gamma V$ where $H_0$ is multiplication by $|x|^{2l}$ and $V$ is an integral operator with kernel $\cos< x,y\rang le$ in the space $L_2(R^d)$. If $l=d/2+ 2k$ for some $k=…
Generalized spectra of differential operators can be related to spectra of preconditioned discretized operators. Obtaining (estimates of) the eigenvalues of the preconditioned discretized operators may lead to better estimating of the…
Continuous movement of discrete spectrum of the Schr\"{o}dinger operator $H(z)=-\frac{d^2} {dx^2}+V_0+z V_1$, with $\int_0^\infty {x |V_j(x)| dx} < \infty$, on the half-line is studied as $z$ moves along a continuous path in the complex…
We define string geometry: spaces of superstrings including the interactions, their topologies, charts, and metrics. Trajectories in asymptotic processes on a space of strings reproduce the right moduli space of the super Riemann surfaces…
In this note we investigate three-dimensional Schr\"odinger operators with $\delta$-interactions supported on $C^2$-smooth cones, both finite and infinite. Our main results concern a Faber-Krahn-type inequality for the principal eigenvalue…
In [15] we proposed a set of sufficient conditions for the approximate controllability of a discrete-spectrum bilinear Schr\"odinger equation. These conditions are expressed in terms of the controlled potential and of the eigenpairs of the…
