Eigenvalue asymptotics for Sturm-Liouville operators with singular potentials

We derive eigenvalue asymptotics for Sturm-Liouville operators with singular complex-valued potentials from the space , α∈[0,1], and Dirichlet or Neumann-Dirichlet boundary conditions. We also give application of the obtained results to the inverse spectral problem of recovering the potential from these two spectra.     

Boundary conditions of Sturm-Liouville operators with mixed spectra

We study bounds on averages of spectral functions corresponding to Sturm-Liouville operators on the half line for different boundary conditions. As a consequence constraints are obtained which imply existence of singular spectrum embedded in a.c. spectrum for sets of boundary conditions with positive measure and potentials vanishing in an interval [0,N]. These constraints are related to estimates on the measure of sets where the spectral density is positive.     

Non-self-adjoint sturm-liouville operators with matrix potentials

We obtain asymptotic formulas for non-self-adjoint operators generated by the Sturm-Liouville system and quasiperiodic boundary conditions. Using these asymptotic formulas, we obtain conditions on the potential for which the system of root vectors of the operator under consideration forms a Riesz basis.     

Spectral analysis of singular ordinary differential operators with indefinite weights

In this paper we develop a perturbation approach to investigate spectral problems for singular ordinary differential operators with indefinite weight functions. We prove a general perturbation result on the local spectral properties of selfadjoint operators in Krein spaces which differ only by finitely many dimensions from the orthogonal sum of a fundamentally reducible operator and an operator with finitely many negative squares. This result is applied to singular indefinite Sturm-Liouville operators and higher order singular ordinary differential operators with indefinite weight functions.     

Sturm-Liouville operators and their spectral functions

Assume that the differential operator −DpD+q in L²(0,∞) has 0 as a regular point and that the limit-point case prevails at ∞. If p≡1 and q satisfies some smoothness conditions, it was proved by Gelfand and Levitan that the spectral functions σ(t) for the Sturm-Liouville operator corresponding to the boundary conditions (pu′)(0)=τu(0), , satisfy the integrability condition . The boundary condition u(0)=0 is exceptional, since the corresponding spectral function does not satisfy such an integrability condition. In fact, this situation gives an example of a differential operator for which one can construct an analog of the Friedrichs extension, even though the underlying minimal operator is not semibounded. In the present paper it is shown with simple arguments and under mild conditions on the coefficients p and q, including the case p≡1, that there exists an analog of the Friedrichs extension for nonsemibounded second order differential operators of the form −DpD+q by establishing the above mentioned integrability conditions for the underlying spectral functions.     

Friedrichs extensions of Schrödinger operators with singular potentials

The Friedrichs extension for the generalized spiked harmonic oscillator given by the singular differential operator −d²/dx²+Bx²+Ax⁻²+λx^−α (B>0, A?0) in L₂(0,∞) is studied. We look at two different domains of definition for each of these differential operators in L₂(0,∞), namely C₀^∞(0,∞) and D(T_2,F)∩D(M_λ,α), where the latter is a subspace of the Sobolev space W_2,2(0,∞). Adjoints of these differential operators on C₀^∞(0,∞) exist as result of the null-space properties of functionals. For the other domain, convolutions and Jensen and Minkowski integral inequalities, density of C₀^∞(0,∞) in D(T_2,F)∩D(M_λ,α) in L₂(0,∞) lead to the other adjoints. Further density properties C₀^∞(0,∞) in D(T_2,F)∩D(M_λ,α) yield the Friedrichs extension of these differential operators with domains of definition D(T_2,F)∩D(M_λ,α).     

Weighted estimates for commutators of singular integral operators with non-doubling measures

Letμbe a nonnegative Radon measure on R~d which only satisfiesμ(B(x,r))≤C_0r~n for all x∈R~d,r>0,and some fixed constants C_0>0 and n∈(0,d].In this paper,some weighted weak type estimates with A_(p,(log L)~σ)~ρ(μ) weights are established for the commutators generated by Calder■n-Zygmund singular integral operators with RBMO(μ) functions.     

Finitely strictly singular operators between James spaces

An operator between Banach spaces is said to be finitely strictly singular if for every ε>0 there exists n such that every subspace E⊆X with dimE?n contains a vector x such that ‖Tx‖<ε‖x‖. We show that, for 1?p<q<∞, the formal inclusion operator from Jp to Jq is finitely strictly singular. As a consequence, we obtain that the strictly singular operator with no invariant subspaces constructed by C. Read is actually finitely strictly singular. These results are deduced from the following fact: if k?n then every k-dimensional subspace of Rn contains a vector x with ‖x?_∞‖=1 such that xmi=i(−1) for some m₁<?<mk.     

Inverse spectral problems for Sturm-Liouville operators with singular potentials. Part III: Reconstruction by three spectra

We solve the inverse spectral problem of recovering the singular potential from W⁻¹₂(0,1) of a Sturm-Liouville operator by its spectra on the three intervals [0,1], [0,a], and [a,1] for some a∈(0,1). Necessary and sufficient conditions on the spectral data are derived, and uniqueness of the solution is analyzed.

On the Caginalp system with dynamic boundary conditions and singular potentials

This article is devoted to the study of the Caginalp phase field system with dynamic boundary conditions and singular potentials. We first show that, for initial data in H ², the solutions are strictly separated from the singularities of the potential. This turns out to be our main argument in the proof of the existence and uniqueness of solutions. We then prove the existence of global attractors. In the last part of the article, we adapt well-known results concerning the Lojasiewicz inequality in order to prove the convergence of solutions to steady states.      

Weighted estimates for commutators of singular integral operators with non-smooth kernels

In this paper, we establish the boundedness of commutators of singular integral operators with non-smooth kernels on weighted Lipschitz spaces Lipβ,ω. The condition on the kernel in this paper is weaker than the usual pointwise H¨ormander condition.     

The spectra and singular values of multidimensional integral operators with bihomogeneous kernels

We consider the multidimensional integral operators with bihomogeneous kernel invariant under all rotations. For truncated operators of the type we describe the limit behavior of the set of singular values and in the case when these operators are selfadjoint we describe the limit behavior of their spectra.     

A note on the multilinear singular integral operators

Lp(Rn) boundedness is considered for the multilinear singular integral operator defined by TAf(x) = ∫Rn Ω(x - y)/|x - y|n 1 (A(x) - A(y) - (△)A(y)(x - y))f(y)dy,where Ω is homogeneous of degree zero, integrable on the unit sphere and has vanishing moment of order one. A has derivatives of order one in BMO(Rn). We give a smoothness condition which is fairly weaker than that Ω∈ Lipα(Sn-1) (0 ＜α≤ 1) and implies the Lp(Rn) (1 ＜ p ＜ oo) boundedness for the operator TA. Some endpoint estimates are also established.     

Criterion for uniform invertibility of families of strong approximations to one-dimensional singular integral operators with continuous coefficients

A criterion is obtained for the applicability of the approximation method based on strongly approximating operator families converging to a one-dimensional singular integral operator with coefficients continuous in the circle. Some special cases are considered. Translated fromMatematischeskie Zametki, Vol. 62, No. 3, pp. 430–439, September, 1997. Translated by A. M. Chebotarev     

On the eigenvalues of the Sturm-Liouville operator with potentials from Sobolev spaces

We study the asymptotic behavior of the eigenvalues the Sturm-Liouville operator Ly = ?y″ + q(x)y with potentials from the Sobolev space W ₂ ^θ?1 , θ ≥ 0, including the nonclassical case θ ∈ [0, 1) in which the potential is a distribution. The results are obtained in new terms. Let s _2k (q) = λ _k ^1/2 (q) ? k, s _2k?1(q) = μ _k ^1/2 (q) ? k ? 1/2, where {λ _k } ₁ ^∞ and {μ _k } ₁ ^∞ are the sequences of eigenvalues of the operator L generated by the Dirichlet and Dirichlet-Neumann boundary conditions, respectively,. We construct special Hilbert spaces t ₂ ^θ such that the mapping F:W ₂ ^θ?1 →t ₂ ^θ defined by the equality F(q) = {s _n } ₁ ^∞ is well defined for all θ ≥ 0. The main result is as follows: for θ > 0, the mapping F is weakly nonlinear, i.e., can be expressed as F(q) = Uq + Φ(q), where U is the isomorphism of the spaces W ₂ ^θ?1 and t ₂ ^θ , and Φ(q) is a compact mapping. Moreover, we prove the estimate ∥Ф(q)∥_τ ≤ C∥q∥_θ?1, where the exact value of τ = τ(θ) > θ ? 1 is given and the constant C depends only on the radius of the ball ∥q∥_θ? ≤ R, but is independent of the function q varying in this ball.     

Pointwise estimates for the maximal multilinear singular integral operators

Two pointwise estimates relating the maximal multilinear singular integral operators and some classical maximal operators are established. These pointwise estimates imply the rearrangement estimate and the BLO(Rn) estimate for the maximal multilinear singular integral operators.

An endpoint estimate for maximal multilinear singular integral operators

A weak type endpoint estimate for the maximal multilinear singular integral operator T*Af(x)=supε＞0|(f)(x-y)＞ε (Ω(x-y)/(|x-y|(n 1)))(A(x)-A(y)-▽A(y)(x-y))f(y)dy| is established, where Ω is homogeneous of degree zero, integrable on the unit sphere and has vanishing moment of order one, and A has derivatives of order one in BMO(Rn). A regularity condition on Ω which implies an LlogL type estimate of T*A is given.
