Tunnel effect and symmetries for non-selfadjoint operators

Michael Hitrik (2013)

Journées Équations aux dérivées partielles

Similarity:

We study low lying eigenvalues for non-selfadjoint semiclassical differential operators, where symmetries play an important role. In the case of the Kramers-Fokker-Planck operator, we show how the presence of certain supersymmetric and $𝒫𝒯$ -symmetric structures leads to precise results concerning the reality and the size of the exponentially small eigenvalues in the semiclassical (here the low temperature) limit. This analysis also applies sometimes to chains of oscillators coupled to two...

Some examples of cocycles with simple continuous singular spectrum

K. Frączek (2001)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We study spectral properties of Anzai skew products $T_{φ} : ² \to ²$ defined by $T_{φ} (z, ω) = (e^{2 π i α} z, φ (z) ω)$ , where α is irrational and φ: → is a measurable cocycle. Precisely, we deal with the case where φ is piecewise absolutely continuous such that the sum of all jumps of φ equals zero. It is shown that the simple continuous singular spectrum of $T_{φ}$ on the orthocomplement of the space of functions depending only on the first variable is a “typical” property in the above-mentioned class of cocycles, if α admits a sufficiently...

Young's (in)equality for compact operators

Gabriel Larotonda (2016)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

If a,b are n × n matrices, T. Ando proved that Young’s inequality is valid for their singular values: if p > 1 and 1/p + 1/q = 1, then $λ_{k} (| a b * |) \leq λ_{k} {(1 / p | a |}^{p} + 1 / {q | b |}^{q})$ for all k. Later, this result was extended to the singular values of a pair of compact operators acting on a Hilbert space by J. Erlijman, D. R. Farenick and R. Zeng. In this paper we prove that if a,b are compact operators, then equality holds in Young’s inequality if and only if ${| a |}^{p} = {| b |}^{q}$ .

Weighted norm estimates and $L_{p}$ -spectral independence of linear operators

Peer C. Kunstmann, Hendrik Vogt (2007)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We investigate the $L_{p}$ -spectrum of linear operators defined consistently on $L_{p} (Ω)$ for p₀ ≤ p ≤ p₁, where (Ω,μ) is an arbitrary σ-finite measure space and 1 ≤ p₀ < p₁ ≤ ∞. We prove p-independence of the $L_{p}$ -spectrum assuming weighted norm estimates. The assumptions are formulated in terms of a measurable semi-metric d on (Ω,μ); the balls with respect to this semi-metric are required to satisfy a subexponential volume growth condition. We show how previous results on $L_{p}$ -spectral independence...

Commutators on ${(\sum ℓ_{q})}_{p}$

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let T be a bounded linear operator on $X = {(\sum ℓ_{q})}_{p}$ with 1 ≤ q < ∞ and 1 < p < ∞. Then T is a commutator if and only if for all non-zero λ ∈ ℂ, the operator T - λI is not X-strictly singular.

Sharp $L^{1}$ estimates for singular transport equations

Sergiu Klainerman, Igor Rodnianski (2008)

Journal of the European Mathematical Society

Similarity:

We provide $L^{1}$ estimates for a transport equation which contains singular integral operators. The form of the equation was motivated by the study of Kirchhoff–Sobolev parametrices in a Lorentzian space-time satisfying the Einstein equations. While our main application is for a specific problem in General Relativity we believe that the phenomenon which our result illustrates is of a more general interest.

Propagation of singularities for operators with multiple involutive characteristics

Johannes Sjöstrand (1976)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Similarity:

Let $P$ be a classical pseudodifferential operator of order $m$ on a paracompact $C^{\infty}$ manifold $X$ . Let $p_{m}$ be the principal symbol and assume that $Σ = p_{m}^{- 1} (0)$ is an involutive $C^{\infty}$ sub-manifold of $T^{*} X ∖ 0$ , satisfying a certain transversality condition. We assume that $p_{m}$ vanishes exactly to order $M$ on $Σ$ and that the derivatives of order $M$ satisfy a certain condition, inspired from the Calderòn uniqueness theorem (usually empty when $M = 2$ ). Suppose that a Levi condition is valid for the lower order symbols. If $u \in 𝒟^{'} (X)$ , $P u \in C^{\infty} (X)$ , then...

Eigenvalue asymptotics for the Pauli operator in strong nonconstant magnetic fields

Georgi D. Raikov (1999)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Similarity:

We consider the Pauli operator $H (μ) : = {(\sum_{j = 1}^{m} σ_{j} (- i \frac{\partial}{\partial x_{j}} - μ A_{j}))}^{2} + V$ selfadjoint in $L^{2} (ℝ^{m}; ℂ^{2})$ , $m = 2, 3$ . Here $σ_{j}$ , $j = 1, ..., m$ , are the Pauli matrices, $A : = (A_{1}, ..., A_{m})$ is the magnetic potential, $μ > 0$ is the coupling constant, and $V$ is the electric potential which decays at infinity. We suppose that the magnetic field generated by $A$ satisfies some regularity conditions; in particular, its norm is lower-bounded by a positive constant, and, in the case $m = 3$ , its direction is constant. We investigate the asymptotic behaviour as $μ \to \infty$ of the number of the eigenvalues of $H (μ)$ smaller...

On the spectrum of the operator which is a composition of integration and substitution

Ignat Domanov (2008)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let ϕ: [0,1] → [0,1] be a nondecreasing continuous function such that ϕ(x) > x for all x ∈ (0,1). Let the operator $V_{ϕ} : f (x) \mapsto \int_{0}^{ϕ (x)} f (t) d t$ be defined on L₂[0,1]. We prove that $V_{ϕ}$ has a finite number of nonzero eigenvalues if and only if ϕ(0) > 0 and ϕ(1-ε) = 1 for some 0 < ε < 1. Also, we show that the spectral trace of the operator $V_{ϕ}$ always equals 1.

$L^{p} (ℝ ⁿ)$ bounds for commutators of convolution operators

Guoen Hu, Qiyu Sun, Xin Wang (2002)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

The $L^{p} (ℝ ⁿ)$ boundedness is established for commutators generated by BMO(ℝⁿ) functions and convolution operators whose kernels satisfy certain Fourier transform estimates. As an application, a new result about the $L^{p} (ℝ ⁿ)$ boundedness is obtained for commutators of homogeneous singular integral operators whose kernels satisfy the Grafakos-Stefanov condition.

Rational invariant tori, phase space tunneling, and spectra for non-selfadjoint operators in dimension $2$

Michael Hitrik, Johannes Sjöstrand (2008)

Annales scientifiques de l'École Normale Supérieure

Similarity:

We study spectral asymptotics and resolvent bounds for non-selfadjoint perturbations of selfadjoint $h$ -pseudodifferential operators in dimension 2, assuming that the classical flow of the unperturbed part is completely integrable. Spectral contributions coming from rational invariant Lagrangian tori are analyzed. Estimating the tunnel effect between strongly irrational (Diophantine) and rational tori, we obtain an accurate description of the spectrum in a suitable complex window, provided...

Operator Lipschitz functions on Banach spaces

Jan Rozendaal, Fedor Sukochev, Anna Tomskova (2016)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

Let X, Y be Banach spaces and let (X,Y) be the space of bounded linear operators from X to Y. We develop the theory of double operator integrals on (X,Y) and apply this theory to obtain commutator estimates of the form $| | f (B) S - {S f (A) | |}_{(X, Y)} \leq c o n s t | | B S - {S A | |}_{(X, Y)}$ for a large class of functions f, where A ∈ (X), B ∈ (Y) are scalar type operators and S ∈ (X,Y). In particular, we establish this estimate for f(t): = |t| and for diagonalizable operators on $X = ℓ_{p}$ and $Y = ℓ_{q}$ for p < q. We also study the estimate above in the setting of Banach...

On generalized property (v) for bounded linear operators

J. Sanabria, C. Carpintero, E. Rosas, O. García (2012)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

An operator T acting on a Banach space X has property (gw) if $σ_{a} (T) ∖ σ_{S B F ₊ ¯} (T) = E (T)$ , where $σ_{a} (T)$ is the approximate point spectrum of T, $σ_{S B F ₊ ¯} (T)$ is the upper semi-B-Weyl spectrum of T and E(T) is the set of all isolated eigenvalues of T. We introduce and study two new spectral properties (v) and (gv) in connection with Weyl type theorems. Among other results, we show that T satisfies (gv) if and only if T satisfies (gw) and $σ (T) = σ_{a} (T)$ .
