The main result of the paper is an extension of the Dirichlet problem from (closures of) bounded open domains U to arbitrary compact subsets X of the complex plane, i.e. the closure of the corresponding space of functions which are harmonic…
We study the numerical range of bounded linear operators on quaternionic Hilbert spaces and its relation with the S-spectrum. The class of complex operators on quaternionic Hilbert spaces is introduced and the upper bild of normal complex…

We study a family of differential operators $L_\alpha$ in two variables, depending on the coupling parameter $\alpha\ge0$ that appears only in the boundary conditions. Our main concern is the spectral properties of $L_\alpha$, which turn…
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…
Semibounded symmetric operators have a distinguished self-adjoint extension, the Friedrichs extension. The eigenvalues of the Friedrichs extension are given by a variational principle that involves only the domain of the symmetric operator.…
We consider equivariant continuous families of discrete one-dimensional operators over arbitrary dynamical systems. We introduce the concept of a pseudo-ergodic element of a dynamical system. We then show that all operators associated to…
We consider the matrix-valued Schr\"odinger operator on the half line with the general selfadjoint boundary condition. When the discrete spectrum is changed without changing the continuous spectrum, we present a review of the…
We define a class of discrete operators acting on infinite, finite or periodic sequences mimicking the standard properties of pseudo-differential operators. In particular we can define the notion of order and regularity, and we recover the…
The spectral properties of the singular Schr\"odinger operator with complex-valued potential which takes values in a wider region than the half-plane, have been little studied. In general case, the operator is non-sectorial, and the…
