In this article, we prove Herglotz's theorem for Hilbert-valued time series. This requires the notion of an operator-valued measure, which we shall make precise for our setting. Herglotz's theorem for functional time series allows to…
This article is devoted to the spectral analysis of the electro-magnetic Schr\"odinger operator on the Euclidean plane. In the semiclassical limit, we derive a pseudo-differential effective operator that allows us to describe the spectrum…
The spectral shift function of a pair of self-adjoint operators is expressed via an abstract operator valued Titchmarsh--Weyl $m$-function. This general result is applied to different self-adjoint realizations of second-order elliptic…
Spectral functions of symmetric matrices -- those depending on matrices only through their eigenvalues -- appear often in optimization. A cornerstone variational analytic tool for studying such functions is a formula relating their…
A complete classification of continuous, dually epi-translation invariant, and rotation equivariant valuations on convex functions is established. This characterizes the recently introduced functional Minkowski vectors, which naturally…
We study several natural multiplicity questions that arise in the context of the Birman-Schwinger principle applied to non-self-adjoint operators. In particular, we re-prove (and extend) a recent result by Latushkin and Sukhtyaev by…
Given a collection of test functions, one defines the associated Schur-Agler class as the intersection of the contractive multipliers over the collection of all positive kernels for which each test function is a contractive multiplier. We…
We develop aspects of functional analysis in an abstract axiomatic setting, through monoidal and enriched category theory. We work in a given closed category, whose objects we call spaces, and we study R-module objects therein (or algebras…
A number of results on radial positive definite functions on ${\mathbb R^n}$ related to Schoenberg's integral representation theorem are obtained. They are applied to the study of spectral properties of self-adjoint realizations of two- and…
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.…
Herglotz's representation of holomorphic functions with positive real part and Carath\'eodory's theorem on approximation by inner functions are two well-known classical results in the theory of holomorphic functions on the unit disc. We…
We derive an integral representation for Herglotz-Nevanlinna functions in two variables which provides a complete characterization of this class in terms of a real number, two non-negative numbers and a positive measure satisfying certain…
This habilitation thesis centres on linearisation of vector-valued functions which means that vector-valued functions are represented by continuous linear operators. The first question we face is which vector-valued functions may be…
The homogenization of eigenvalues of non-Hermitian Maxwell operators is studied by the H-convergence method. It is assumed that the Maxwell systems are equipped with suitable m-dissipative boundary conditions, namely, with Leontovich or…
This paper deals with families of matrix-valued Aleksandrov--Clark measures $\{\boldsymbol{\mu}^\alpha\}_{\alpha\in\mathcal{U}(n)}$, corresponding to purely contractive $n\times n$ matrix functions $b$ on the unit disc of the complex plane.…
The spectral and scattering properties of non-selfadjoint problems pose a mathematical challenge. Apart from exceptional cases, the well-developed methods used to examine the spectrum of selfadjoint problems are not applicable. One of the…
In this paper, we introduce a Helmholtz-type decomposition for the space of square integrable, symmetric-matrix-valued functions analogous to the standard Helmholtz decomposition for vector fields. This decomposition provides a better…
Part II of the review article focuses on the applications of Herglotz-Nevanlinna functions in material sciences. It presents a diverse set of applications with details and the role of Herglotz-Nevanlinna functions clearly pointed out. This…
We prove that given a symmetric completely non-selfadjoint operator $B$ with finite deficiency indices $(n,n)$ on a Hilbert space and a boundary triplet $\left(\mathbb{C}^{n},\Gamma_{1},\Gamma_{2}\right)$ for $B^{*}$, the set of points in…
We consider Dirac, Pauli and Schr\"odinger quantum magnetic Hamiltonians of full rank in ${\rm L}^2 \big(\mathbb{R}^{2d} \big)$, $d \ge 1$, perturbed by non-self-adjoint (matrix-valued) potentials. On the one hand, we show the existence of…
