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 prove that for any $n\times n$ matrix, $A$, and $z$ with $|z|\geq \|A\|$, we have that $\|(z-A)^{-1}\|\leq\cot (\frac{\pi}{4n}) \dist (z, \spec(A))^{-1}$. We apply this result to the study of random orthogonal polynomials on the unit…

We consider multiplicative semigroups of real dxd matrices. A semigroup S is called Perron if each of its matrices has a Perron eigenvalue, i.e., an eigenvalue equal to the spectral radius. If all matrices of S leave a proper convex cone…

We consider the class of bounded symmetric Jacobi matrices $J$ with positive off-diagonal elements and complex diagonal elements. With each matrix $J$ from this class, we associate the spectral data, which consists of a pair $(\nu,\psi)$.…

Let $X$ be a simplicial complex on $n$ vertices without missing faces of dimension larger than $d$. Let $L_{j}$ denote the $j$-Laplacian acting on real $j$-cochains of $X$ and let $\mu_{j}(X)$ denote its minimal eigenvalue. We study the…

A Jacobi matrix with $a_n\to 1$, $b_n\to 0$ and spectral measure $\nu'(x)dx + d\nu_{sing}(x)$ satisfies the Szeg\H o condition if $\int_{0}^\pi \ln \bigl[ \nu'(2\cos\theta) \bigr] d\theta$ is finite. We prove that if $a_n = 1 + \frac…
