The requirement of Hermiticity of a Quantum Mechanical Hamiltonian, for the description of physical processes with real eigenvalues which has been challenged notably by Carl Bender, is examined for the case of a Fock space Hamilitonian…
The fractional Laplacian $(-\Delta)^{\alpha/2}$ is a non-local operator which depends on the parameter $\alpha$ and recovers the usual Laplacian as $\alpha \to 2$. A numerical method for the fractional Laplacian is proposed, based on the…
Let $\mathcal L=-\Delta+V$ be a Schr\"odinger operator on $\mathbb R^d$, $d\geq3$, where $\Delta$ is the Laplacian operator on $\mathbb R^d$ and the nonnegative potential $V$ belongs to the reverse H\"older class $RH_s$ for $s\geq d/2$. For…
We show that some non-Hermitian Hamiltonian operators with tridiagonal matrix representation may be quasi Hermitian or similar to Hermitian operators. In the class of Hamiltonian operators discussed here the transformation is given by a…
We define an infinite class of unitary transformations between position and momentum fractional spaces, thus generalizing the Fourier transform to a special class of fractal geometries. Each transform diagonalizes a unique Laplacian…
We show that a closed four-manifold with $4\frac{1}{2}$-positive curvature operator of the second kind is diffeomorphic to a spherical space form. The curvature assumption is sharp as both $\mathbb{CP}^2$ and $\mathbb{S}^3 \times…

A quasi-Hermitian operator is an operator that is similar to its adjoint in some sense, via a metric operator, i.e., a strictly positive self-adjoint operator. Whereas those metric operators are in general assumed to be bounded, we analyze…
In the recent years a generalization $H=p^2 +x^2(ix)^\epsilon$ of the harmonic oscillator using a complex deformation was investigated, where \epsilon\ is a real parameter. Here, we will consider the most simple case: \epsilon even and x…
To develop a unitary quantum theory with probabilistic description for pseudo- Hermitian systems one needs to consider the theories in a different Hilbert space endowed with a positive definite metric operator. There are different…
The aim of this paper is to study radial symmetry and monotonicity properties for positive solution of elliptic equations involving the fractional Laplacian. We first consider the semi-linear Dirichlet problem (-\Delta)^{\alpha} u=f(u)+g,\…
We prove that the principal pivot transform (also known as the partial inverse, sweep operator, or exchange operator in various contexts) maps matrices with positive imaginary part to matrices with positive imaginary part. We show that the…
We consider nonlinear elliptic problems involving a nonlocal operator: the square root of the Laplacian in a bounded domain with zero Dirichlet boundary conditions. For positive solutions to problems with power nonlinearities, we establish…
One may obtain, using operator transformations, algebraic relations between the Fourier transforms of the causal propagators of different exactly solvable potentials. These relations are derived for the shape invariant potentials. Also,…

We found hermitian realizations of the position vector $\vec{r}$, the angular momentum $\vec{\Lambda}$ and the linear momentum $\vec{p}$, all behaving like vectors under the $su_q(2)$ algebra, generated by $L_0$ and $L_\pm$. They are used…
In this paper we consider a one quartic operator on the $\mathbb{R}^2$ with positive coefficients. Positive fixed points for a quartic operator, were investigated. Theorems on number of positive fixed points of the quartic operator, are…
We construct a discrete non-hermitean momentum operator, which implements faithfully the non self-adjoint nature of momentum for a particle in a box. Its eigenfunctions are strictly limited to the interior of the box in the continuum limit,…
