Some Computational Aspects of the Consistent Mass Finite Element Method for a (semi-)periodic Eigenvalue Problem

De Schepper, H. (1999)

Serdica Mathematical Journal

We consider a model eigenvalue problem (EVP) in 1D, with periodic or semi–periodic boundary conditions (BCs). The discretization of this type of EVP by consistent mass finite element methods (FEMs) leads to the generalized matrix EVP Kc = λ M c, where K and M are real, symmetric matrices, with a certain (skew–)circulant structure. In this paper we fix our attention to the use of a quadratic FE–mesh. Explicit expressions for the eigenvalues of the resulting algebraic EVP are established. This leads...

Some estimates concerning the Zeeman effect

Wiesław Cupała (1993)

Studia Mathematica

The Itô integral calculus and analysis on nilpotent Lie grops are used to estimate the number of eigenvalues of the Schrödinger operator for a quantum system with a polynomial magnetic vector potential. An analogue of the Cwikel-Lieb-Rosenblum inequality is proved.

Some new problems in spectral optimization

Giuseppe Buttazzo, Bozhidar Velichkov (2014)

Banach Center Publications

We present some new problems in spectral optimization. The first one consists in determining the best domain for the Dirichlet energy (or for the first eigenvalue) of the metric Laplacian, and we consider in particular Riemannian or Finsler manifolds, Carnot-Carathéodory spaces, Gaussian spaces. The second one deals with the optimal shape of a graph when the minimization cost is of spectral type. The third one is the optimization problem for a Schrödinger potential in suitable classes.

Spectral shift and multiplicity of the first eigenvalue of the magnetic Schrödinger operator in two dimensions

László Erdős (2002)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

We show that the lowest eigenvalue of the magnetic Schrödinger operator on a line bundle over a compact Riemann surface M is bounded by the L 1 -norm of the magnetic field B . This implies a similar bound on the multiplicity of the ground state. An example shows that this degeneracy can indeed be comparable with M | B | even in case of the trivial bundle.

Spectre négatif d'un opérateur elliptique avec des conditions au bord de Robin.

Yuri V. Egorov, Mohammed El Aidi (2001)

Publicacions Matemàtiques

In this article we discuss some estimates of the number of the negative eigenvalues and their moments of energy for an elliptic operator L = L0 - V(x) defined in Hm(R+n) with the Robin boundary conditions containing a potential W(x), in terms of some integrals of V and W.

Spectrum of the laplacian in a narrow curved strip with combined Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions

David Krejčiřík (2009)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We consider the laplacian in a domain squeezed between two parallel curves in the plane, subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions on one of the curves and Neumann boundary conditions on the other. We derive two-term asymptotics for eigenvalues in the limit when the distance between the curves tends to zero. The asymptotics are uniform and local in the sense that the coefficients depend only on the extremal points where the ratio of the curvature radii of the Neumann boundary to the Dirichlet one...
