It is well known that the sum of negative (positive) eigenvalues of some finite Hermitian matrix $V$ is concave (convex) with respect to $V$. Using the theory of the spectral shift function we generalize this property to self-adjoint…

We obtain a representation formula for the derivative of the spectral shift function $\xi(\lambda; B, \epsilon)$ related to the operators $H_0(B,\epsilon) = (D_x - By)^2 + D_y^2 + \epsilon x$ and $H(B, \epsilon) = H_0(B, \epsilon) + V(x,y),…

We derive two main results: First, assume that $A$, $B$, $A_n$, $B_n$ are self-adjoint operators in the Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, and suppose that $A_n$ converges to $A$ and $B_n$ to $B$ in strong resolvent sense as $n \to \infty$. Fix…

We explore connections between Krein's spectral shift function $\xi(\lambda,H_0,H)$ associated with the pair of self-adjoint operators $(H_0,H)$, $H=H_0+V$ in a Hilbert space $\calH$ and the recently introduced concept of a spectral shift…

Given a self-adjoint operator $H_0$ and a relatively $H_0$-compact self-adjoint operator $V,$ the functions $r_j(z) = - \sigma_j^{-1}(z),$ where $\sigma_j(z)$ are eigenvalues of the compact operator $(H_0-z)^{-1}V,$ bear a lot of important…
