We consider non-self-adjoint operators in Hilbert spaces of the form $H=H_0+CWC$, where $H_0$ is self-adjoint, $W$ is bounded and $C$ is a metric operator, $C$ bounded and relatively compact with respect to $H_0$. We suppose that…

In this paper, we prove the relation $\frac{r_{A}(T) + r_{A}(T^{\diamond}) + |r_{A}(T^{\diamond}) - r_{A}(T)|}{2} = \sup \{ |\lambda|: \lambda \in \sigma_{A}(T)\}$, where $A$ is a positive semidefinite operator (not necessarily to have a…

The variance of a bounded linear operator $a$ on a Hilbert space $H$ at a unit vector $h$ is defined by $D_h(a)=\|ah\|^2-|<ah,h>|^2$. We show that two operators $a$ and $b$ have the same variance at all vectors $h\in H$ if and only if there…

Let $H_0$, $H$ be a pair of self-adjoint operators for which the standard assumptions of the smooth version of scattering theory hold true. We give an explicit description of the absolutely continuous spectrum of the operator…

Criteria are formulated both for the existence and for the non-existence of complex eigenvalues for a class of non self-adjoint operators in Hilbert space invarariant under a particular discrete symmetry. Applications to the PT-symmetric…

Let $H_0$ and $H$ be self-adjoint operators in a Hilbert space. In the scattering theory framework, we describe the essential spectrum of the difference $\varphi(H)-\varphi(H_0)$ for piecewise continuous functions $\varphi$. This…

It is well known that for a single bounded operator $A_0$ on a Hilbert $\mathfrak{H}$, if $\mathfrak{M}\subset \mathfrak{H}$ is hyperinvariant for $A_0$, then the spectrum of $A_0|_{\mathfrak{M}}$ is contained in the spectrum of $A_0$. In…

Let $A(t)$ be a holomorphic family of self-adjoint operators of type (B) on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. Kato-Rellich perturbation theory says that isolated eigenvalues of $A(t)$ will be analytic functions of $t$ as long as they…

Let $A$ and $A_{1}$ are unbounded selfadjoint operators in a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. Following \cite{AK} we call $A_{1}$ a \textit{singular} perturbation of $A$ if $A$ and $A_{1}$ have different domains…

We study perturbations of a self-adjoint positive operator $T$, provided that a perturbation operator $B$ satisfies "local" subordinate condition $\|B\varphi_k\|\leqslant b\mu_k^{\beta}$ with some $\beta <1$ and $b>0$. Here…

M.Levitin and E.Shargorodsky purposed in a recent article, [math.SP/0212087], the use of the so called ``second order relative spectrum'', to find eigenvalues of self-adjoint operators in gaps of the essential spectrum. Let $M$ be a…

We investigate the effect of non-symmetric relatively bounded perturbations on the spectrum of self-adjoint operators. In particular, we establish stability theorems for one or infinitely many spectral gaps along with corresponding…

In this paper we provide a quantitative comparison of two obstructions for a given symmetric operator S with dense domain in Hilbert space ${\cal H}$ to be selfadjoint. The first one is the pair of deficiency spaces of von Neumann, and the…

A closed densely defined operator $ T $ on a Hilbert space $ \mathcal{H} $ is callled $M$-hyponormal if $\mathcal{D}(T) \subset \mathcal{D}(T^{*}) $ and there exists $ M > 0 $ for which $ \parallel(T-zI)^{*}x \parallel \leq M…

We prove that if $0<\a<1$ and $f$ is in the H\"older class $\L_\a(\R)$, then for arbitrary self-adjoint operators $A$ and $B$ with bounded $A-B$, the operator $f(A)-f(B)$ is bounded and $\|f(A)-f(B)\|\le\const\|A-B\|^\a$. We prove a similar…

Let $H$ be any $\PT$ symmetric Schr\"odinger operator of the type $ -\hbar^2\Delta+(x_1^2+...+x_d^2)+igW(x_1,...,x_d)$ on $L^2(\R^d)$, where $W$ is any odd homogeneous polynomial and $g\in\R$. It is proved that $\P H$ is self-adjoint and…

Joint spectra of tuples of operators are subsets in complex projective space. The corresponding tuple of operators can be viewed as an infinite dimensional analog of a determinantal representation of the joint spectrum. We investigate the…

Let $\mathfrak{M}$ be a von Neumann algebra and let $A$ be a nonzero positive element of $\mathfrak{M}$. By $\sigma_A(T) $ and $r_A(T)$ we denote the $A$-spectrum and the $A$-spectral radius of $T\in\mathfrak{M}^A$, respectively. In this…

Let $H_1$ and $H_2$ be selfadjoint operators or relations (multivalued operators) acting on a separable Hilbert space and assume that the inequality $H_1 \leq H_2$ holds. Then the validity of the inequalities $-H_1^{-1} \leq -H_2^{-1}$ and…

In the smooth scattering theory framework, we consider a pair of self-adjoint operators $H_0$, $H$ and discuss the spectral projections of these operators corresponding to the interval $(-\infty,\lambda)$. The purpose of the paper is to…
