On spectral problems of discrete Schrödinger operators

Chi-Hua Chan, Po-Chun Huang (2021)

Applications of Mathematics

A special type of Jacobi matrices, discrete Schrödinger operators, is found to play an important role in quantum physics. In this paper, we show that given the spectrum of a discrete Schrödinger operator and the spectrum of the operator obtained by deleting the first row and the first column of it can determine the discrete Schrödinger operator uniquely, even though one eigenvalue of the latter is missing. Moreover, we find the forms of the discrete Schrödinger operators when their smallest and...

On the approximate solution of integro-differential equations arising in oscillating magnetic fields

K. Maleknejad, M. Hadizadeh, M. Attary (2013)

Applications of Mathematics

In this work, we propose the Shannon wavelets approximation for the numerical solution of a class of integro-differential equations which describe the charged particle motion for certain configurations of oscillating magnetic fields. We show that using the Galerkin method and the connection coefficients of the Shannon wavelets, the problem is transformed to an infinite algebraic system, which can be solved by fixing a finite scale of approximation. The error analysis of the method is also investigated....

On the boundary conditions associated with second-order linear homogeneous differential equations

J. Das (2004)

Archivum Mathematicum

The ideas of the present paper have originated from the observation that all solutions of the linear homogeneous differential equation (DE) y ' ' ( t ) + y ( t ) = 0 satisfy the non-trivial linear homogeneous boundary conditions (BCs) y ( 0 ) + y ( π ) = 0 , y ' ( 0 ) + y ' ( π ) = 0 . Such a BC is referred to as a natural BC (NBC) with respect to the given DE, considered on the interval [ 0 , π ] . This observation suggests the following queries : (i)  Will each second-order linear homogeneous DE possess a natural BC ? (ii)  How many linearly independent natural BCs can a...
