In this work the spectral theory of self-adjoint operator $A$ represented by Jacobi matrix is considered. The approach is based on the continued fraction representation of the resolvent matrix element of $A$. Different criteria of absolute…
Stieltjes' work on continued fractions and the orthogonal polynomials related to continued fraction expansions is summarized and an attempt is made to describe the influence of Stieltjes' ideas and work in research done after his death,…
A series of physically motivated operations appearing in the study of composite materials are interpreted in terms of elementary continued fraction transforms of matrix valued, rational Stieltjes functions.
We give a continued-fraction characterization of Stieltjes moment sequences for which there exists a representing measure with support in $[\xi, \infty)$. The proof is elementary.
This paper is essentially derived from the observation that some results used for improving constants in the Lieb-Thirring inequalities for Schrodinger operators in L2(-\infty,\infty) can be translated to the discrete Schrodinger op-…
We give a detailed account of various connections between several classes of objects: Hankel, Hurwitz, Toeplitz, Vandermonde and other structured matrices, Stietjes and Jacobi-type continued fractions, Cauchy indices, moment problems, total…
We find a necessary and sufficient condition for a Herglotz function $m$ to be the Borel transform of the spectral measure of an exponentially decaying perturbation of a periodic Jacobi matrix. The condition is in terms of meromorphic…

The property that a Jacobi matrix is reflectionless is usually characterized either in terms of Weyl m-functions or the vanishing of the real part of the boundary values of the diagonal matrix elements of the resolvent. We introduce a…
Krein condition have been used as a qualitative result to show the M-indeterminacy of some kind of densities. In this work we use results from the theory of the Hilbert transform to construct families of densities having all the same finite…
We describe all solutions of the matrix Stieltjes moment problem in the general case (no conditions besides solvability are assumed). We use Krein's formula for the generalized $\Pi$-resolvents of positive Hermitian operators in the form of…
We associate a Jacobi form over a rank s lattice to N=2, D=4 heterotic string compactifications which have s Wilson lines at a generic point in the vector multiplet moduli space. Jacobi forms of index m=1 and m=2 have appeared earlier in…
A new way of encoding a non-self-adjoint Jacobi matrix $J$ by a spectral measure of $|J|$ together with a phase function was described by Pushnitski--\v Stampach in the bounded case. We present another perspective on this correspondence,…
We use the classical results of Baxter and Gollinski-Ibragimov to prove a new spectral equivalence for Jacobi matrices on $l^2(\N)$. In particular, we consider the class of Jacobi matrices with conditionally summable parameter sequences and…
In 1986 J. Nuttall published in Constructive Approximation the paper "Asymptotics of generalized Jacobi polynomials", where with his usual insight he studied the behavior of the denominators ("generalized Jacobi polynomials") and the…
In 1959, Pelczynski and Semadeni proved a theorem in which they gave some equivalent conditions for a compact Hausdorff space to be scattered. The purpose of the current note is that to clarify the meaning of the subtle term "conditionally…
We present several new asymptotic trace formulas for Jacobi matrices whose coefficients satisfy a small deviation condition. Our results extend most of the existing trace formulas for Jacobi matrices.
The article studies a class of generalized factorial functions and symbolic product sequences through Jacobi type continued fractions (J-fractions) that formally enumerate the divergent ordinary generating functions of these sequences. The…
We investigate trace formulas for Jacobi operators which are trace class perturbations of quasi-periodic finite-gap operators using Krein's spectral shift theory. In particular we establish the conserved quantities for the solutions of the…
Let $C$ be a complex projective integral curve with planar singularities. In this note, we study numerical relations among its versal deformation space, moduli space of stable maps, and compactified Jacobian. In particular, we correct a…
