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 study self-adjoint extensions of a second order differential operator of Sturm-Liouville type on a graph. We relate self-adjointness of the operator to the existence of non-complete trajectories of the Hamiltonian vector field defined by…
We consider deformations of unbounded operators by using the novel construction tool of warped convolutions. By using the Kato-Rellich theorem we show that unbounded self-adjoint deformed operators are self-adjoint if they satisfy a certain…
In [Camano, Lackner, Monk, SIAM J. Math. Anal., Vol. 49, No. 6, pp. 4376-4401 (2017)] it was suggested to use Stekloff eigenvalues for Maxwell equations as target signature for nondestructive testing via inverse scattering. The authors…
We present a mathematically rigorous quantum-mechanical treatment of a one-dimensional nonrelativistic quantum dual theories (with oscillator and Coulomb-like potentials) and compare their spectra and the sets of eigenfunctions. We…
Considerable attention has been recently focused on quantum-mechanical systems with boundaries and/or singular potentials for which the construction of physical observables as self-adjoint (s.a.) operators is a nontrivial problem. We…
We obtain bounds on the complex eigenvalues of non-self-adjoint Schr\"odinger operators with complex potentials, and also on the complex resonances of self-adjoint Schr\"odinger operators. Our bounds are compared with numerical results, and…
We prove a variant of Krein's resolvent formula expressing the resolvents of self-adjoint extensions through the associated boundary conditions. Applications to solvable quantum-mechanical problems are discussed.
Using the concept of intrinsic metric on a locally finite weighted graph, we give sufficient conditions for the magnetic Schr\"odinger operator to be essentially self-adjoint. The present paper is an extension of some recent results proven…
We obtain analytic solution of the time-independent Schrodinger equation in two dimensions for a charged particle moving in the field of an electric quadrupole. The solution is written as a series in terms of special functions that support…
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 are focused on the idea that observables in quantum physics are a bit more than just hermitian operators and that this is, in general, a "tricky business". The origin of this idea comes from the fact that there is a subtle difference…
In [J. Math. Phys. 51 (2010) 022104] a self-adjoint operator was introduced that has the property that it indicates the direction of time within the framework of standard quantum mechanics, in the sense that as a function of time its…
We consider the one-dimensional Schr\"odinger equation $-f''+q_\alpha f = Ef$ on the positive half-axis with the potential $q_\alpha(r)=(\alpha-1/4)r^{-2}$. It is known that the value $\alpha=0$ plays a special role in this problem: all…
For the generalized eigenvalue problem, a quotient function is devised for estimating eigenvalues in terms of an approximate eigenvector. This gives rise to an infinite family of quotients, all entirely arguable to be used in estimation.…
It is shown that the Schrodinger equation is a byproduct of more deterministic Boltzmann-like equation. All physical information is derived from the solution of this equation, which is a function of space and momentum. The additional terms…
