We provide a simple recipe for obtaining all self-adjoint extensions, together with their resolvent, of the symmetric operator $S$ obtained by restricting the self-adjoint operator $A:\D(A)\subseteq\H\to\H$ to the dense, closed with respect…

We apply weighted Mourre commutator theory to prove the limiting absorption principle for the discrete Schr{\"o}dinger operator perturbed by the sum of a Wigner-von Neumann and long-range type potential. In particular, this implies a new…

We prove a limiting absorption principle for linear Schroedinger equations in Lebesgue spaces. In particular, we do not require any polynomially decaying weights as in the classical Agmon estimate. The methods used are close to the…

In a previous paper (arXiv:math-ph/0604055) we introduced a very simple PT-symmetric non-Hermitian Hamiltonian with real spectrum and derived a closed formula for the metric operator relating the problem to a Hermitian one. In this note we…

We establish a spectral representation for solutions to linear Hamilton equations with positive definite energy in a Hilbert space. Our approach is a special version of M. Krein's spectral theory of J-selfadjoint operators is the Hilbert…

In this work we construct the model of a skew--selfadjoint operator with a simple spectrum acting on a Hilbert quaternion bimodule. This result is based on the Spectral Theorem for a skew--selfadjoint operator.

In this article we prove a generalization of Weyl's criterion for the essential spectrum of a self-adjoint operator on a Hilbert space. We then apply this criterion to the Laplacian on functions over open manifolds and get new results for…

We obtain inequalities for the Riesz means for the discrete spectrum of a class of self-adjoint compact integral operators. Such bounds imply some inequalities for the counting function of the Dirichlet boundary problem for the Laplace…

The abstract theory of self-adjoint extensions of symmetric operators is used to construct self-adjoint realizations of a second-order elliptic operator on $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ with linear boundary conditions on (a relatively open part of) a…

We generalize the notion of Lagrangian subspaces to self-orthogonal subspaces with respect to a (skew-)symmetric form, thus characterizing (skew-)self-adjoint and unitary operators by means of self-ortho-gonal subspaces. By orthogonality…

We develop the concept of operators in Hilbert spaces which are similar to their adjoints via antiunitary operators, the latter being not necessarily involutive. We discuss extension theory, refined polar and singular-value decompositions,…

We produce a simple criterion and a constructive recipe to identify those self-adjoint extensions of a lower semi-bounded symmetric operator on Hilbert space which have the same lower bound as the Friedrichs extension. Applications of this…

We study the spectrum of a periodic self-adjoint operator on the axis perturbed by a small localized nonself-adjoint operator. It is shown that the continuous spectrum is independent of the perturbation, the residual spectrum is empty, and…

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…

We prove an $L^p$-version of the limiting absoprtion principle for a class of periodic elliptic differential operators of second order. The result is applied to the construction of nontrivial solutions of nonlinear Helmholtz equations with…

Using a correspondence between the spectrum of the damped wave equation and non-self-adjoint Schroedinger operators, we derive various bounds on complex eigenvalues of the former. In particular, we establish a sharp result that the…

We discuss criteria for a self-adjoint operator on L^2(X) to have empty essential spectrum. We state a general result for the case of a locally compact abelian group X and give examples for X=R^n.

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…

Using the Spectral Theorem for unbounded self-adjoint operators we prove that any countable family of Lagrangian subspaces of a symplectic Hilbert space admits a common complementary Lagrangian.

Given a densely defined and gapped symmetric operator with infinite deficiency index, it is shown how self-adjoint extensions admitting arbitrarily prescribed portions of the gap as essential spectrum are identified and constructed within a…
