The Evans function is a well known tool for locating spectra of differential operators in one spatial dimension. In this paper we construct a multidimensional analogue as the modified Fredholm determinant of a ratio of Dirichlet-to-Robin…
We show that the Dirac operator on a compact globally hyperbolic Lorentzian spacetime with spacelike Cauchy boundary is a Fredholm operator if appropriate boundary conditions are imposed. We prove that the index of this operator is given by…
We review previous work on spectral flow in connection with certain self-adjoint model operators $\{A(t)\}_{t\in \mathbb{R}}$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, joining endpoints $A_\pm$, and the index of the operator $D_{A}^{}= (d/d t) + A$…
We revisit a construction principle of Fredholm operators using Hilbert complexes of densely defined, closed linear operators and apply this to particular choices of differential operators. The resulting index is then computed with the help…
In the analysis of parametrized nonautonomous evolutionary equations, bounded entire solutions are natural candidates for bifurcating objects. Appropriate explicit and sufficient conditions for such branchings, however, require to combine…
For nonuniform exponentially bounded evolution families on the half-line we introduce a class of Banach function spaces on which we define nonuniform evolution semigroups. We completely characterize nonuniform exponential stability in terms…
The Riesz projection and the corresponding eigenfunction of a positive operator satisfying the Doeblin condition are explicitly constructed using the partial Bell polynomials. While classical Fredholm theory requires stringent summability…
We are concerned with periodic problems for nonlinear evolution equations at resonance of the form $\dot u(t) = - A u(t) + F (t,u(t))$, where a densely defined linear operator $A\colon D(A)\to X$ on a Banach space $X$ is such that $-A$…
We prove some uniform and pointwise gradient estimates for the Dirichlet and the Neumann evolution operators $G_{\mathcal{D}}(t,s)$ and $G_{\mathcal{N}}(t,s)$ associated with a class of nonautonomous elliptic operators $\A(t)$ with…
In a refined Sobolev scale, we investigate an elliptic boundary-value problem with additional unknown functions in boundary conditions for which the maximum of orders of boundary operators is grater than or equal to the order of the…
In the first part of the article we establish the existence in the sense of sequences of solutions in $H^{2}(R)$ for some nonhomogeneous linear differential equation in which one of the terms has the argument translated by a constant. It is…
Let $\{A(t)\}_{t \in \mathbb{R}}$ be a path of self-adjoint Fredholm operators in a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, joining endpoints $A_\pm$ as $t \to \pm \infty$. Computing the index of the operator $D_A= (d/d t) + A$ acting in…
We study the model operator $\mathbf{D}_{\mathbf{A}} = (d/dt) + \mathbf{A}$ in $L^2(\mathbb{R};\mathcal{H})$ associated with the operator path $\{A(t)\}_{t=-\infty}^{\infty}$, where $(\mathbf{A} f)(t) = A(t) f(t)$ for a.e.\…
Let $\Gamma$ be a finitely generated discrete exact group. We consider operators on $l^2(\Gamma)$ which are composed by operators of multiplication by a function in $l^\infty (\Gamma)$ and by the operators of left-shift by elements of…
Families of representations of suitable Banach algebras provide a powerful tool in the study of the spectral theory of (pseudo)differential operators and of their Fredholmness. We introduce the new concept of an exhausting family of…
In a previous paper we introduced the unitary conjugation groupoid associated to any unital separable Type I C*-algebra. This groupoid encodes the representation-theoretic structure of the algebra through the action of its unitary group on…
Proofs that Fredholm determinants of transfer operators for hyperbolic flows are entire can be extended to a large new class of multiplicative evolution operators. We construct such operators both for the Gutzwiller semi-classical quantum…
We revisit an argument due to Lesch (Topology 32 (1993), no. 3, 611-623) for proving the cobordism invariance of the index of Dirac operators on even-dimensional closed manifolds and combine this with recent work by the author (New York J.…
This paper investigates realisations of elliptic differential operators of general order on manifolds with boundary following the approach of B\"ar-Ballmann to first order elliptic operators. The space of possible boundary values of…
