Abstract: | The spectrum of the transfer operator for the mapTx=1/x–1/x] when restricted to a certain Banach space of holomorphic functions is shown to coincide with the spectrum of the adjointU* of Koopman's isometric operatorUf(x)=f·T(x) when the former is restricted to the Hilbert space ( ) introduced in part I of this work. IfN denotes the operator –P
1 withP
1 the projector onto the eigenfunction to the dominant eigenvalue
1
=1 of , then –N is au
0-positive operator with respect to some cone and therefore has a dominant positive, simple eigenvalue –
2. A minimax principle holds giving rigorous upper and lower bounds both for
2 and the relaxation time of the mapT. |
