Abstract

We study the point spectrum of a second order difference operator with complex potential on the half-line via Fredholm determinants of the corresponding Birman-Schwinger operator pencils, the Evans and the Jost functions. An application is given to instability of a generalization of the Kolmogorov flow for the Euler equation of ideal fluid on the two dimensional torus.
