Given a self-adjoint operator H, a self-adjoint trace class operator V and a fixed Hilbert-Schmidt operator F with trivial kernel and co-kernel, using limiting absorption principle an explicit set of full Lebesgue measure is defined such that for all points of this set the wave and the scattering matrices can be defined and constructed unambiguously. Many well-known properties of the wave and scattering matrices and operators are proved, including the stationary formula for the scattering matrix. This new abstract scattering theory allows to prove that for any trace class perturbations of arbitrary self-adjoint operators the singular part of the spectral shift function is an almost everywhere integer-valued function.
We consider a twisted quantum wave guide, and are interested in the spectral analysis of the associated Dirichlet Laplacian H. We show that if the derivative of rotation angle decays slowly enough at infinity, then there is an infinite sequence of discrete eigenvalues lying below the infimum of the essential spectrum of H, and obtain the main asymptotic term of this sequence.
We study the one-dimensional Schrodinger operators $$ S(q)u:=-u+q(x)u,quad uin mathrm{Dom}left(S(q)right), $$ with $1$-periodic real-valued singular potentials $q(x)in H_{operatorname{per}}^{-1}(mathbb{R},mathbb{R})$ on the Hilbert space $L_{2}left(mathbb{R}right)$. We show equivalence of five basic definitions of the operators $S(q)$ and prove that they are self-adjoint. A new proof of continuity of the spectrum of the operators $S(q)$ is found. Endpoints of spectrum gaps are precisely described.
For a nonnegative weakly irreducible tensor $mathcal{A}$, we give some characterizations of the spectral radius of $mathcal{A}$, by using the digraph of tensors. As applications, some bounds on the spectral radius of the adjacency tensor and the signless Laplacian tensor of the $k$-uniform hypergraphs are shown.
The concepts of P- and P$_0$-matrices are generalized to P- and P$_0$-tensors of even and odd orders via homogeneous formulae. Analog to the matrix case, our P-tensor definition encompasses many important classes of tensors such as the positive definite tensors, the nonsingular M-tensors, the nonsingular H-tensors with positive diagonal entries, the strictly diagonally dominant tensors with positive diagonal entries, etc. As even-order symmetric PSD tensors are exactly even-order symmetric P$_0$-tensors, our definition of P$_0$-tensors, to some extent, can be regarded as an extension of PSD tensors for the odd-order case. Along with the basic properties of P- and P$_0$-tensors, the relationship among P$_0$-tensors and other extensions of PSD tensors are then discussed for comparison. Many structured tensors are also shown to be P- and P$_0$-tensors. As a theoretical application, the P-tensor complementarity problem is discussed and shown to possess a nonempty and compact solution set.
Product graphs have been gainfully used in literature to generate mathematical models of complex networks which inherit properties of real networks. Realizing the duplication phenomena imbibed in the definition of corona product of two graphs, we define Corona graphs. Given a small simple connected graph which we call seed graph, Corona graphs are defined by taking corona product of a seed graph iteratively. We show that the cumulative degree distribution of Corona graphs decay exponentially when the seed graph is regular and cumulative betweenness distribution follows power law when seed graph is a clique. We determine explicit formulae of eigenvalues, Laplacian eigenvalues and signless Laplacian eigenvalues of Corona graphs when the seed graph is regular. Computable expressions of eigenvalues and signless Laplacian eigenvalues of Corona graphs are also obtained when the seed graph is a star graph.
We derive dispersion estimates for solutions of the one-dimensional discrete perturbed Dirac equation. To this end we develop basic scattering theory and establish a limiting absorption principle for discrete perturbed Dirac operators.
We show that for a Jacobi operator with coefficients whose (j+1)th moments are summable the jth derivative of the scattering matrix is in the Wiener algebra of functions with summable Fourier coefficients. We use this result to improve the known dispersive estimates with integrable time decay for the time dependent Jacobi equation in the resonant case.
Given two Hilbert spaces, $mathcal{H}$ and $mathcal{K}$, we introduce an abstract unitary operator $U$ on $mathcal{H}$ and its discriminant $T$ on $mathcal{K}$ induced by a coisometry from $mathcal{H}$ to $mathcal{K}$ and a unitary involution on $mathcal{H}$. In a particular case, these operators $U$ and $T$ become the evolution operator of the Szegedy walk on a graph, possibly infinite, and the transition probability operator thereon. We show the spectral mapping theorem between $U$ and $T$ via the Joukowsky transform. Using this result, we have completely detemined the spectrum of the Grover walk on the Sierpinski lattice, which is pure point and has a Cantor-like structure.
Let $G$ be a connected undirected graph with $n$, $nge 3$, vertices and $m$ edges. Denote by $rho_1 ge rho_2 ge cdots > rho_n =0$ the normalized Laplacian eigenvalues of $G$. Upper and lower bounds of $rho_i$, $i=1,2,ldots , n-1$, are determined in terms of $n$ and general Randi c index, $R_{-1}$.
