Friedrichs extension of operators defined by linear Hamiltonian systems on unbounded interval

Roman Šimon Hilscher, Petr Zemánek (2010)

Mathematica Bohemica

In this paper we consider a linear operator on an unbounded interval associated with a matrix linear Hamiltonian system. We characterize its Friedrichs extension in terms of the recessive system of solutions at infinity. This generalizes a similar result obtained by Marletta and Zettl for linear operators defined by even order Sturm-Liouville differential equations.

Identification of a wave equation generated by a string

Amin Boumenir (2014)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We show that we can reconstruct two coefficients of a wave equation by a single boundary measurement of the solution. The identification and reconstruction are based on Krein’s inverse spectral theory for the first coefficient and on the Gelfand−Levitan theory for the second. To do so we use spectral estimation to extract the first spectrum and then interpolation to map the second one. The control of the solution is also studied.

Inverse problems on star-type graphs: differential operators of different orders on different edges

Vyacheslav Yurko (2014)

Open Mathematics

We study inverse spectral problems for ordinary differential equations on compact star-type graphs when differential equations have different orders on different edges. As the main spectral characteristics we introduce and study the so-called Weyl-type matrices which are generalizations of the Weyl function (m-function) for the classical Sturm-Liouville operator. We provide a procedure for constructing the solution of the inverse problem and prove its uniqueness.

New spectral criteria for almost periodic solutions of evolution equations

Toshiki Naito, Nguyen Van Minh, Jong Son Shin (2001)

Studia Mathematica

We present a general spectral decomposition technique for bounded solutions to inhomogeneous linear periodic evolution equations of the form ẋ = A(t)x + f(t) (*), with f having precompact range, which is then applied to find new spectral criteria for the existence of almost periodic solutions with specific spectral properties in the resonant case where e i s p ( f ) ¯ may intersect the spectrum of the monodromy operator P of (*) (here sp(f) denotes the Carleman spectrum of f). We show that if (*) has a bounded...

Four applications are outlined of pseudospectra of highly nonnormal linear operators.

On a Five-Diagonal Jacobi Matrices and Orthogonal Polynomials on Rays in the Complex Plane

Zagorodniuk, S. (1998)

Serdica Mathematical Journal

∗ Partially supported by Grant MM-428/94 of MESC.Systems of orthogonal polynomials on the real line play an important role in the theory of special functions [1]. They find applications in numerous problems of mathematical physics and classical analysis. It is known, that classical polynomials have a number of properties, which uniquely define them.

On discreteness of spectrum of a functional differential operator

Sergey Labovskiy, Mário Frengue Getimane (2014)

Mathematica Bohemica

We study conditions of discreteness of spectrum of the functional-differential operator u = - u ' ' + p ( x ) u ( x ) + - ( u ( x ) - u ( s ) ) d s r ( x , s ) on ( - , ) . In the absence of the integral term this operator is a one-dimensional Schrödinger operator. In this paper we consider a symmetric operator with real spectrum. Conditions of discreteness are obtained in terms of the first eigenvalue of a truncated operator. We also obtain one simple condition for discreteness of spectrum.
