We consider the Klein-Gordon equation on a static spacetime and minimally coupled to a static electromagnetic potential. We show that it is essentially self-adjoint on $C_{\mathrm{c}}^\infty$. We discuss various distinguished inverses and…
We prove that all the solutions of a quasi-periodically forced linear Klein-Gordon equation $\psi_{tt}-\psi_{xx}+\mathtt{m}\psi+Q(\omega t)\psi=0 $ where $ Q(\omega t) := a^{(2)}(\omega t, x) \partial_{xx} + a^{(1)}(\omega t, x)\partial_x +…
We discuss the essential self-adjointness of wave operators, as well as the limiting absorption principle, in generalizations of asymptotically Minkowski settings. This is obtained via using a Fredholm framework for inverting the spectral…
This paper addresses two different but related questions regarding an unbounded symmetric tridiagonal operator: its self-adjointness and the approximation of its spectrum by the eigenvalues of its finite truncations. The sufficient…
We characterize by boundary conditions the Krein-von Neumann extension of a strictly positive minimal operator corresponding to a regular even order quasi-differential expression of Shin-Zettl type. The characterization is stated in terms…
Formally self-adjoint, conformally covariant, polydifferential operators provide a general framework for studying variational problems, such as prescribing the scalar, $Q$-, or $\sigma_2$-curvatures, within a conformal class. We describe…
In this paper, we report on new results related to the existence of an adjoint for operators on separable Banach spaces and discuss a few interesting applications. (Some results are new even for Hilbert spaces.) Our first two applications…
We construct the causal (forward/backward) propagators for the massive Klein-Gordon equation perturbed by a first order operator which decays in space but not necessarily in time. In particular, we obtain global estimates for…
We are interested in an open question raised by Fong-Tsui (dating back to the beginning of the eighties of last century) as to whether a bounded operator whose absolute value is less than the absolute value of its real part is self-adjoint.…
Algebraic and analytic aspects of self-adjoint operators of order four or more with polynomial coefficients are investigated. As a consequence, a systematic way of constructing such operators is given. The procedure is applied to obtain…
In this paper, we study some fourth order singular critical equations of Lichnerowicz type involving the Paneitz-Branson operator, and we prove existence and non existence results under given assumptions.
A famous theorem due to Weyl and von Neumann asserts that two bounded self-adjoint operators are unitarily equivalent modulo the compacts, if and only if their essential spectrum agree. The above theorem does not hold for unbounded…
We consider Dirac operators defined on planar domains. For a large class of boundary conditions, we give a direct proof of their self-adjointness in the Sobolev space $H^1$.
Monotone operators are of central importance in modern optimization and nonlinear analysis. Their study has been revolutionized lately, due to the systematic use of the Fitzpatrick function. Pioneered by Penot and Svaiter, a topic of recent…
In recent years we have seen several new models of dependent type theory extended with some form of modal necessity operator, including nominal type theory, guarded and clocked type theory, and spatial and cohesive type theory. In this…
Given a symmetric, semi-bounded, second order elliptic differential operator on a bounded domain with $C^{1,1}$ boundary, we provide a Krein-type formula for the resolvent difference between its Friedrichs extension and an arbitrary…
We extend a result of Stolz and Weidmann on the approximation of isolated eigenvalues of singular Sturm-Liouville and Dirac operators by the eigenvalues of regular operators.
This is a continuation of our papers \cite{AP2} and \cite{AP3}. In those papers we obtained estimates for finite differences $(\D_Kf)(A)=f(A+K)-f(A)$ of the order 1 and $(\D_K^mf)(A)\df\sum\limits_{j=0}^m(-1)^{m-j}(m\j)f\big(A+jK\big)$ of…
In this paper spectral theorems for not necessarily continuous normal and self-adjoint random operators on a complex separable Hilbert space are proved.
Different finite difference replacements for the derivative are analyzed in the context of the Heisenberg commutation relation. The type of the finite difference operator is shown to be tied to whether one can naturally consider $P$ and $X$…
