The notion of the flow introduced by Kitaev is a manifestly topological formulation of the winding number on a real lattice. First, we show in this paper that the flow is quite useful for practical numerical computations for systems without…

We study the semi-classical behavior of the spectral function of the Schr\"{o}dinger operator with short range potential. We prove that the spectral function is a semi-classical Fourier integral operator quantizing the forward and backward…
The index of a pseudo B-Fredholm operator will be defined and generalize the usual index of a B-Fredholm operator. This concept will be used to extend some known results in Fredholm's theory. Among other results, the nullity, the…
We show that the principle "nonvanishing of spectral flow of the linearization along the trivial branch entails bifurcation of nontrivial solutions ", proved in \cite{FPR} for critical points of one parameter families of $C^2$ functionals…
We compute the Fredholm index, ${\rm ind}(D_A)$, of the operator $D_A = (d/dt) + A$ on $L^2(\mathbb{R};\mathcal{H})$ associated with the operator path $\{A(t)\}_{t=-\infty}^{\infty}$, where $(A f)(t) = A(t) f(t)$ for a.e. $t\in\mathbb{R}$,…

A generalized Friedel sum rule is derived for a quantum dot with internal orbital and spin degrees of freedom. The result is valid when all many-body correlations are taken into account and it links the phase shift of the scattered electron…
Let {D_x} be a family of unbounded self-adjoint Fredholm operators representing an element of K^1(M). Consider the first two components of the Chern character of the family. It is known that these correspond to the spectral flow of the…

In this thesis we consider the free surface flow due to a submerged source in a channel of finite depth. This problem has been considered previously in the literature, with some disagreement about whether or not a train of waves exist on…
In this paper, we establish a condition on the coefficients of differential operators generated in the space of square-integrable functions on the entire real line by an ordinary differential expression with periodic, complex-valued…
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…

Scaling of the mean velocity profiles has been studied by many researchers, since it provides a template of universal dynamical patterns across a range of Reynolds numbers. Various normalization schemes have been shown in the past, some…
