Spectral problems of a class of non-self-adjoint one-dimensional Schrodinger operators

In this paper we investigate the one-dimensional Schrodinger operator L(q)$L(q)$ with complex-valued periodic potential q   when q∈_L1[0,1]$q\in L_1[0,1]$ and _qn=0$q_n=0$ for n=0,−1,−2,...$n=0,-1,-2,...$, where _qn$q_n$ are the Fourier coefficients of q   with respect to the system {e^i2πnx}$\{e^{i2\pi nx}\}$. We prove that the Bloch eigenvalues are (2πn+t)²${(2\pi n+t)}^2$ for n∈Z$n\in \mathbb{Z}$, t∈C$t\in \mathbb{C}$ and find explicit formulas for the Bloch functions. Then we consider the inverse problem for this operator.     

Affine crystals,one-dimensional sums and parabolic Lusztig q-analogues

Mathematische Zeitschrift - This paper is concerned with one-dimensional sums in classical affine types. We prove a conjecture of Shimozono and Zabrocki (J Algebra 299:33–61, 2006) by showing...     

Mixing properties of one-dimensional cellular automata

We study a class of endomorphisms on the space of bi-infinite sequences over a finite set, and show that such a map is onto if and only if it is measure-preserving. A class of dynamical systems arising from these endomorphisms are strongly mixing, and some of them even -mixing. Some of these are isomorphic to the one-sided shift on in both the topological and measure-theoretical sense. Such dynamical systems can be associated to , the Cuntz-algebra of order , in a natural way.

     

Log-dimensional spectral properties of one-dimensional quasicrystals

We consider discrete one-dimensional Schrödinger operators on the whole line and establish a criterion for continuity of spectral measures with respect to log-Hausdorff measures. We apply this result to operators with Sturmian potentials and thereby prove logarithmic quantum dynamical lower bounds for all coupling constants and almost all rotation numbers, uniformly in the phase.

     

Spectral properties of threshold functions

We examine the spectra of boolean functions obtained as the sign of a real polynomial of degreed. A tight lower bound on various norms of the lowerd levels of the function's Fourier transform is established. The result is applied to derive best possible lower bounds on the influences of variables on linear threshold functions. Some conjectures are posed concerning upper and lower bounds on influences of variables in higher order threshold functions.Supported by an Eshkol fellowship, administered by the National Council for Research and Development—Israel Ministry of Science and Development.     

Spectral properties of Faddeev's equations

The spectral properties of the matrix operators corresponding to the three-particle Faddeev equations are investigated. It is shown that these operators have two types of invariant subspace. On the subspaces of the first type, the operators possess an eigenvalue spectrum identical to the spectrum of the three-particle Hamiltonian, while the eigenfunctions can be expressed in terms of solutions of the Schrödinger equation. On the subspaces of the second type, the operators are equivalent to the kinetic-energy operator of the system, and therefore their eigenfunctions do not correspond to the dynamics of the interacting particles.State University, St. Petersburg.

Spectral properties of Pascal graphs

We obtain spectral properties of the Pascal graphs by exploring its spectral graph invariants such as the algebraic connectivity, the first three largest Laplacian eigenvalues and the nullity. Some open problems pertaining to the Pascal graphs are given.     

Spectral collocation and radial basis function methods for one-dimensional interface problems

Differential equations with singular sources or discontinuous coefficients yield non-smooth or even discontinuous solutions. This problem is known as the interface problem. High-order numerical solutions suffer from the Gibbs phenomenon in that the accuracy deteriorates if the discontinuity is not properly treated. In this work, we use the spectral and radial basis function methods and present a least squares collocation method to solve the interface problem for one-dimensional elliptic equations. The domain is decomposed into multiple sub-domains; in each sub-domain, the collocation solution is sought. The solution should satisfy more conditions than the given conditions associated with the differential equations, which makes the problem over-determined. To solve the over-determined system, the least squares method is adopted. For the spectral method, the weighted norm method with different scaling factors and the mixed formulation are used. For the radial basis function method, the weighted shape parameter method is presented. Numerical results show that the least squares collocation method provides an accurate solution with high efficacy and that better accuracy is obtained with the spectral method.     

Spectral properties of operator logarithms

We prove that the spectral height of the logarithm log A of a sectorial operator A equals the spectral angle of A. This yields old results of Prüss/Sohr and McIntosh as corollaries. Then we construct a sectorial operator A on a UMD space having bounded imaginary powers such that the group type of (A ^is ) _s is strictly greater than .

Spectral analysis and exponential stability of one-dimensional wave equation with viscoelastic damping

This paper presents the exponential stability of a one-dimensional wave equation with viscoelastic damping. Using the asymptotic analysis technique, we prove that the spectrum of the system operator consists of two parts: the point and continuous spectrum. The continuous spectrum is a set of N points which are the limits of the eigenvalues of the system, and the point spectrum is a set of three classes of eigenvalues: one is a subset of N isolated simple points, the second is approaching to a vertical line which parallels to the imagine axis, and the third class is distributed around the continuous spectrum. Moreover, the Riesz basis property of the generalized eigenfunctions of the system is verified. Consequently, the spectrum-determined growth condition holds true and the exponential stability of the system is then established.
