Let ${\bf A} \in R^{n \times n}$ be a nonnegative irreducible square matrix and let $r({\bf A})$ be its spectral radius and Perron-Frobenius eigenvalue. Levinger asserted and several have proven that $r(t):=r((1{-}t) {\bf A} + t {\bf…

We consider a general elliptic operator in an infinite multi-dimensional cylinder with several distant perturbations; this operator is obtained by ``gluing'' several single perturbation operators $\mathcal{H}^{(k)}$, $k=1,\ldots,n$, at…

We consider the irregular (in the Birkhoff and even the Stone sense) transmission eigenvalue problem of the form $-y''+q(x)y=\rho^2 y,$ $y(0)=y(1)\cos\rho a-y'(1)\rho^{-1}\sin\rho a=0.$ The main focus is on the ''most'' irregular case…

We revisit an archive submission by P. B. Denton, S. J. Parke, T. Tao, and X. Zhang, arXiv:1908.03795, on $n \times n$ self-adjoint matrices from the point of view of self-adjoint Dirichlet Schr\"odinger operators on a compact interval.

The operator of double differentiation, perturbed by the composition of the differentiation operator and a convolution one, on a finite interval with Dirichlet boundary conditions is considered. We obtain uniform stability of recovering the…

We prove and apply two theorems: First, a quantitative, scale-free unique continuation estimate for functions in a spectral subspace of a Schr\"odinger operator on a bounded or unbounded domain, second, a perturbation and lifting estimate…

We introduce the notion of Benjamini-Schramm convergence for quantum graphs. This notion of convergence, intended to play the role of the already existing notion for discrete graphs, means that the restriction of the quantum graph to a…

We prove a generalized Birman-Schwinger principle in the non-self-adjoint context. In particular, we provide a detailed discussion of geometric and algebraic multiplicities of eigenvalues of the basic operator of interest (e.g., a…

This is largely a survey of results obtained jointly with Boris Hanin and Peng Zhou on interfaces in spectral asymptotics, both for Schr\"odinger operators on $L^2({\mathbb R}^d)$ and for Toeplitz Hamiltonians acting on holomorphic sections…

For a given graph $\mathcal{G}$ of order $n$ with $m$ edges, and a real symmetric matrix associated to the graph, $M\left(\mathcal{G}\right)\in\mathbb{R}^{n\times n}$, the interlacing graph reduction problem is to find a graph…

In the paper, Sturm--Liouville differential operators on time scales consisting of a finite number of isolated points and segments are considered. Such operators unify differential and difference operators. We obtain properties of their…

We consider the three-dimensional sloshing problem on a triangular prism whose angles with the sloshing surface are of the form $\frac{\pi}{2q}$, where $q$ is an integer. We are interested in finding a two-term asymptotic expansion of the…

Recently Fraser and Schoen showed that the solution of a certain extremal Steklov eigenvalue problem on a compact surface with boundary can be used to generate a free boundary minimal surface, i.e., a surface contained in the ball that has…

For a scalar elliptic self-adjoint operator on a compact manifold without boundary we have two-term asymptotics for the number of eigenvalues between zero and lambda when lambda tends to infinity, under an additional dynamical condition.…

We consider a two-spectra inverse problem for the one-dimensional Schr\"{o}dinger equation with boundary conditions containing rational Herglotz--Nevanlinna functions of the eigenvalue parameter and provide a complete solution of this…

We prove that the zeta-function $\zeta_\Delta$ of the Laplacian $\Delta$ on a self-similar fractals with spectral decimation admits a meromorphic continuation to the whole complex plane. We characterise the poles, compute their residues,…

We give an overview over the application of functional equations, namely the classical Poincar\'e and renewal equations, to the study of the spectrum of Laplace operators on self-similar fractals. We compare the techniques used to those…

We begin the systematic study of the spectral theory of periodic Jacobi matrices on trees including a formal definition. The most significant result that appears here for the first time is that these operators have no singular continuous…

We show that a class of de Branges spaces, generated by means of generalized Fourier transforms associated with perturbed Bessel differential equations, has the properties of oversampling and aliasing.

The Hill operator admits a band gap structure. As a special case, like the Mathieu operator, one has only open gaps, however, the instability intervals of the Whittaker-Hill operator may be open or closed. In 2007, P. Djakov and B. Mityagin…
