Asymptotic behavior of the spectrum of the Maxwell operator

For the distribution functions of the positive and the negative eigenvalues of the operator in a domain with a smooth boundary, one obtains the asymptotic formula N^±()=(3²)^–1 mes ·³+0(²). Under additional assumptions on the properties of the geodesic billiard in , one shows that N±()= (3²)^–1 mes ·³+0(²).Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.
