On periodic matrix-valued Weyl-Titchmarsh functions

We consider a certain class of Herglotz-Nevanlinna matrix-valued functions which can be realized as the Weyl-Titchmarsh matrix-valued function of some symmetric operator and its self-adjoint extension. New properties of Weyl-Titchmarsh matrix-valued functions as well as a new version of the functional model for such realizations are presented. In the case of periodic Herglotz-Nevanlinna matrix-valued functions, we provide a complete characterization of their realizations in terms of the corresponding functional model. We also obtain properties of a symmetric operator and its self-adjoint extension which generate a periodic Weyl-Titchmarsh matrix-valued function. We study pairs of operators (a symmetric operator and its self-adjoint extension) with constant Weyl-Titchmarsh matrix-valued functions and establish connections between such pairs of operators and representations of the canonical commutation relations for unitary groups of operators in Weyl's form. As a consequence of such an approach, we obtain the Stone-von Neumann theorem for two unitary groups of operators satisfying the commutation relations as well as some extension and refinement of the classical functional model for generators of those groups. Our examples include multiplication operators in weighted spaces, first and second order differential operators, as well as the Schrödinger operator with linear potential and its perturbation by bounded periodic potential.     

Schrödinger operators and de Branges spaces

We present an approach to de Branges's theory of Hilbert spaces of entire functions that emphasizes the connections to the spectral theory of differential operators. The theory is used to discuss the spectral representation of one-dimensional Schrödinger operators and to solve the inverse spectral problem.     

Weyl–Titchmarsh theory for CMV operators associated with orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle

We provide a detailed treatment of Weyl–Titchmarsh theory for half-lattice and full-lattice CMV operators and discuss their systems of orthonormal Laurent polynomials on the unit circle, spectral functions, variants of Weyl–Titchmarsh functions, and Green's functions. In particular, we discuss the corresponding spectral representations of half-lattice and full-lattice CMV operators.     

Higher order spectral shift

We construct higher order spectral shift functions, extending the perturbation theory results of M.G. Krein [M.G. Krein, On a trace formula in perturbation theory, Mat. Sb. 33 (1953) 597-626 (in Russian)] and L.S. Koplienko [L.S. Koplienko, Trace formula for perturbations of nonnuclear type, Sibirsk. Mat. Zh. 25 (1984) 62-71 (in Russian); translation in: Trace formula for nontrace-class perturbations, Siberian Math. J. 25 (1984) 735-743] on representations for the remainders of the first and second order Taylor-type approximations of operator functions. The higher order spectral shift functions represent the remainders of higher order Taylor-type approximations; they can be expressed recursively via the lower order (in particular, Krein's and Koplienko's) ones. We also obtain higher order spectral averaging formulas generalizing the Birman-Solomyak spectral averaging formula. The results are obtained in the semi-finite von Neumann algebra setting, with the perturbation taken in the Hilbert-Schmidt class of the algebra.     

Generalizations of the spectral theorem for matrices. II. matrix polynomials over arbitrary fields

The spectral theorem for matrices is generalized to matrix polynomials over arbitrary fields. An associated theory of generalized interpolation with respect to a set of prime polynomials is developed, and Drazin inverses are used to identify the spectral components. These results are then used to state the spectral theorem for functions of real matrices.

Transcendental trace formulas for finite-gap potentials

We show that formulas differing from classical analogues of rational trace formulas for algebraic-geometric potentials occur in the theory of finite-gap integration of spectral equations. The new formulas contain transcendental modular functions and hypergeometric series. They result in transcendental relations for theta functions.

Approximate solutions of problems involving normal operators

The spectral theory for unbounded normal operators is used to develop a systematic method of approximating functions of operators with other, more easily computable functions, leading to a priori error estimates in the operator norm. In particular, polynomial approximations are obtained for resolvents and semigroups in terms of inverses and resolvents, respectively.     

SPECTRAL APPROXIMATION ORDERS OF MULTIDIMENSIONAL NONSTATIONARY BIORTHOGONAL SEMI-MULTIRESOLUTION ANALYSIS IN SOBOLEV SPACE

Subdivision algorithm （Stationary or Non-stationary） is one of the most active and exciting research topics in wavelet analysis and applied mathematical theory. In multidimensional non-stationary situation, its limit functions are both compactly supported and infinitely differentiable. Also, these limit functions can serve as the scaling functions to generate the multidimensional non-stationary orthogonal or biorthogonal semi-multiresolution analysis （Semi-MRAs）. The spectral approximation property of multidimensional non-stationary biorthogonal Semi-MRAs is considered in this paper. Based on nonstationary subdivision scheme and its limit scaling functions, it is shown that the multidimensional nonstationary biorthogonal Semi-MRAs have spectral approximation order r in Sobolev space H^s（R^d）, for all r ≥ s ≥ 0.     

Noetherian rings of polynomial functions on Abelian groups

Polynomial functions on Abelian groups play a basic role in the theory of functional equations and spectral analysis. In this paper we investigate the ring-structure of polynomial functions on topological Abelian groups. We show that polynomial functions form a Noetherian ring if and only if the linear space of continuous homomorphisms of the group into the additive group of complex numbers is finite dimensional. In the case of discrete Abelian groups this is equivalent to the presence of spectral synthesis.     

Some remarks on Newton–Sabatier methods

It is shown how Newton–Sabatier methods (arising in inverse scattering at fixed energy) can be related to spectral measures and typically when they correspond to regular potentials. A number of spectral formulae for various transmutation kernels are also given in terms of general Kontorovi?–Lebedev theory and connections to generating functions, generalized orthogonal polynomials, etc. are indicated.     

Water waves diffraction by a submerged sphere and dual integral transforms

A solution of the diffraction problem for a submerged sphere in finite water depth based on the linearized potential theory is presented. The sphere can take different positions relative to the bottom. A new method is suggested to solve this problem. This method is a generalization of the integral transforms. Two systems of the curvilinear coordinates are used, two spectral systems are constructed and two spectral functions are introduced to obtain the solution. For the first spectral function an integral representation is obtained, for the second spectral function an integro-operator equation is derived. Different asymptotic approximations are considered.     

Evaluation of Casimir Energies Through Spectral Functions

We consider applications of elliptic differential operators and their associated spectral functions in quantum field theory problems. The role of zeta functions and traces of heat kernels in the regularization of Casimir energies is emphasized, and the renormalization procedure is discussed with simple examples.     

Lie algebras and recurrence relations I

We study representations of the Heisenberg-Weyl algebra and a variety of Lie algebras, e.g., su(2), related through various aspects of the spectral theory of self-adjoint operators, the theory of orthogonal polynomials, and basic quantum theory. The approach taken here enables extensions from the one-variable case to be made in a natural manner. Extensions to certain infinite-dimensional Lie algebras (continuous tensor products, q-analogs) can be found as well. Particularly, we discuss the relationship between generating functions and representations of Lie algebras, spectral theory for operators that lead to systems of orthogonal polynomials and, importantly, the precise connection between the representation theory of Lie algebras and classical probability distributions is presented via the notions of quantum probability theory. Coincidentally, our theory is closed connected to the study of exponential families with quadratic variance in statistical theory.     

Several Jordan-algebraic aspects of optimization†

We describe some concepts from the theory of Euclidean Jordan algebras and their use in optimization theory. This includes: primal-dual algorithms, optimality conditions, convexity of spectral functions, proof of some inequalities and a Jordan-algebraic version of Horn–Schur theorem     

The estimations for maximal operators

In this paper we study the almost everywhere convergence of the spectral expansions related to the Laplace–Beltrami operator on the unit sphere. Using the spectral properties of the functions with logarithmic singularities, the estimate for maximal operator of the Riesz means of the partial sums of the Fourier–Laplace series is established. We have constructed a different method for investigating the summability problems of Fourier–Laplace series, which based on the theory of spectral decompositions of the self-adjoint Laplace–Beltrami operator.     

A class of nonlinear equations in Hilbert space and its application to completeness problems

Nonlinear equations arising in the spectral theory of self-adjoint operator functions and related completeness problems for eigenvectors are studied. A separation theorem about the values of the Rayleigh functional on solutions of a nonlinear equation is proved. This theorem is used, as a new approach to establish completeness of eigenvectors for some classes of self-adjoint operator functions. Examples from matrix pencils are given.
