We prove sufficient conditions for Hausdorff convergence of the spectra of sequences of closed operators defined on varying Hilbert spaces and converging in norm-resolvent sense, i.e. $\|J_\varepsilon(1+A_\varepsilon)^{-1} -…

We classify non-linear proper Fredholm maps between Hilbert spaces, up to proper homotopy, in terms of the stable homotopy groups of spheres. We show that there is a surjective map from the stable homotopy groups of spheres to the set of…

We classify the homotopy classes of proper Fredholm maps from an infinite dimensional Hilbert manifold into its model space in terms of a suitable version of framed cobordism. Our construction is an alternative approach to the…

We investigate elliptic boundary-value problems for which the maximum of the orders of the boundary operators is equal to or greater than the order of the elliptic differential equation. We prove that the operator corresponding to an…

We study compactness and the Fredholm property for linear operators on coorbit spaces over locally compact abelian phase spaces. In contrast to previous works, we do not impose any countability assumptions on the underlying groups. Our…

In the paper one considers the local structure of the Fredholm joint spectrum of commuting $n$-tuples of operators. A connection between the spatial characteristics of operators and the algebraic invariant of the corresponding coherent…

We prove in full generality a formula that relates the spectral flow of a continuous path of quadratic forms of Fredholm type with the spectral flow of the restrictions of the forms to a fixed closed finite codimensional subspace. We then…

We present an improved Fredholm theory of non-elliptic operators for when the corresponding classical dynamical system exhibits normally hyperbolic trapping with smooth backward and forward trapped sets. It takes place on coisotropic…

Using an operator-theoretic framework in a Hilbert-space setting, we perform a detailed spectral analysis of the one-dimensional Laplacian in a bounded interval, subject to specific non-self-adjoint connected boundary conditions modelling a…

Let $\Gamma$ be a compact group acting on a smooth, compact manifold $M$, let $P \in \psi^m(M; E_0, E_1)$ be a $\Gamma$-invariant, classical pseudodifferential operator acting between sections of two equivariant vector bundles $E_i \to M$,…

We discuss the well known ``Fredholm index=spectral flow'' theorem and show that it can be interpreted as a limit case of an identity involving two spectral shift functions.

Jacobi operators appear as kinetic operators of several classes of noncommutative field theories (NCFT) considered recently. This paper deals with the case of bounded Jacobi operators. A set of tools mainly issued from operator and spectral…

The Vafa-Witten equations (with or without a mass term) constitute a non-linear, first order system of differential equations on a given oriented, compact, Riemannian 4-manifold. Because these are the variational equations of a functional,…

For the almost Mathieu operator with a small coupling constant, for a series of spectral gaps, we describe the asymptotic locations of the gaps and get lower bounds for their lengths. The results are obtained by analysing a monodromy…

We extend the relative index theorem on non-compact manifolds to encompass a wide variety of hypoelliptic differential operators of arbitrary order, demonstrating that the change in index when changing a differential operator locally can be…

We study the spectral theory of operators, generated as direct sums of self-adjoint extensions of quasi-differential minimal operators on a multi-interval set (self-adjoint vector-operators), acting in a Hilbert space. Spectral theorems for…

We give an elementary proof of a celebrated theorem of Cappell, Lee and Miller which relates the Maslov index of a pair of paths of Lagrangian subspaces to the spectral flow of an associated path of selfadjoint first-order operators. We…

We study concentration operators associated with either the discrete or the continuous Fourier transform, that is, operators that incorporate a spatial cut-off and a subsequent frequency cut-off to the Fourier inversion formula. Their…

We continue the development of transfer operator techniques for expanding maps on a lattice coupled by general interaction functions. We obtain a spectral gap for an appropriately defined transfer operator, and, as corollaries, the…

We present a fairly general construction of unbounded representatives for the interior Kasparov product. As a main tool we develop a theory of C^1-connections on operator * modules; we do not require any smoothness assumptions; our…
