Motivated by the recent developments of pseudo-Hermitian quantum mechanics, we analyze the structure generated by unbounded metric operators in a Hilbert space. To that effect, we consider the notions of similarity and quasi-similarity…

The scope of this text is to study a process that induces another proof of the Spectral Embedding Theorem: that any densely defined symmetric operator can be extended by a multiplication operator through an embedding of the Hilbert space…

We introduce a refined Sobolev scale on a vector bundle over a closed infinitely smooth manifold. This scale consists of inner product H\"ormander spaces parametrized with a real number and a function varying slowly at infinity in the sense…

Some basic facts about Fredholm indices are briefly reviewed, often used in connection with Toeplitz and pseudodifferential operators, and which may be relevant for operators associated to fractals.

The spectrum of a selfadjoint second order elliptic differential operator in $L^2(\mathbb{R}^n)$ is described in terms of the limiting behavior of Dirichlet-to-Neumann maps, which arise in a multi-dimensional Glazman decomposition and…

In this paper, we extend the definition of cohomology associated to monotone graph properties, to encompass twisted functor coefficients. We introduce oriented matchings on graphs, and focus on their (twisted) cohomology groups. We…

We study the manner in which a sequence of spectral shift functions $\xi(\cdot;H_j,H_{0,j})$ associated with abstract pairs of self-adjoint operators $(H_j, H_{0,j})$ in Hilbert spaces $\cH_j$, $j\in\bbN$, converge to a limiting spectral…

Let~$H_0$ and~$V$ be self-adjoint operators such that~$V$ admits a factorisation $V = F^*JF$ with bounded self-adjoint $J$ and $|H_0|^{1/2}$-compact~$F.$ Flow of singular spectrum of the path of self-adjoint operators $H_0 + rV,$ $r \in…

The spectral theory of graphs provides a bridge between classical signal processing and the nascent field of graph signal processing. In this paper, a spectral graph analogy to Heisenberg's celebrated uncertainty principle is developed.…

Let $(\cX, \rho)$ be a discrete metric space. We suppose that the group $\sZ^n$ acts freely on $X$ and that the number of orbits of $X$ with respect to this action is finite. Then we call $X$ a $\sZ^n$-periodic discrete metric space. We…

Every oriented 4-manifold admits a folded symplectic structure, which in turn determines a homotopy class of compatible almost complex structures that are discontinuous across the folding hypersurface ("fold") in a controlled fashion. We…

We consider bifurcation of critical points from a trivial branch for families of functionals that are invariant under the orthogonal action of a compact Lie group. Based on a recent construction of an equivariant spectral flow by the…

We consider a compact Riemann surface $\mathscr{R}$ with a complex of non-intersecting Jordan curves, whose complement is a pair of Riemann surfaces with boundary, each of which may be possibly disconnected. We investigate conformally…

Let $D\subset R^d$ be a bounded domain and let \[ L=\frac12\nabla\cdot a\nabla +b\cdot\nabla \] %\[ %L=\frac12\sum_{i,j=1}^da_{i,j}\frac{\partial^2}{\partial x_i\partial x_j}+\sum_{i=1}^db_i\frac{\partial}{\partial x_i}, %\] be a second…

Classical spectral theory gives a complete description of a single normal operator, but it fails for noncommuting operators, where no canonical joint spectrum or simultaneous diagonalization exists. Existing approaches provide only partial…

We study the stability of Fredholm property for regular operators on Hilbert $C^*$-modules under some certain perturbations. We treat this problem when perturbing operators are (relatively) bounded or relatively compact. We also consider…

We prove a quantitative version of the non-uniform hyperbolicity of the Teichm\"uller geodesic flow. Namely, at each point of any Teichm\"uller flow line, we bound the infinitesimal spectral gap for variations of the Hodge norm along the…

The goal of this paper is to provide sharp spectral gap estimates for problems involving higher-order operators (including both the clamped and buckling plate problems) on Cartan-Hadamard manifolds. The proofs are symmetrization-free --…

Let $(-A,B,C)$ be a continuous time linear system with state space a separable complex Hilbert space $H$, where $-A$ generates a strongly continuous contraction semigroup $(e^{-tA})_{t\geq 0}$ on $H$, and $\phi (t)=Ce^{-tA}B$ is the impulse…

We show that elliptic complexes of (pseudo)differential operators on smooth compact manifolds with boundary can always be complemented to a Fredholm problem by boundary conditions involving global pseudodifferential projections on the…
