Riemannian manifolds with maximal eigenfunction growth
Using an abstract result on Riesz basis generation for discrete operators in general Hilbert spaces, we show, in this article, that the generalized eigenfunctions of an Euler-Bernoulli beam equation with joint linear feedback control form a Riesz basis for the state space. The spectrum-determined growth condition is hence obtained. Meanwhile, the exponential stability as well as the asymptotic expansion of eigenvalues are also readily obtained by a straightforward computation.
We study the Riesz means for the eigenfunction expansions of a class of hypoelliptic differential operators on the Heisenberg group. The operators we consider are homogeneous with respect to dilations and invariant under the action of the unitary group. We obtain convergence results in norm, at Lebesgue points and almost everywhere. We also prove localization results.
In this note, we study the scattering amplitude for the Schrödinger equation with constant magnetic field. We consider the case where the strengh of the magnetic field goes to infinity and we discuss the competition between the magnetic and the electrostatic effects.
These notes summarize the papers [8, 9] on the analysis of resolvent, Eisenstein series and scattering operator for geometrically finite hyperbolic quotients with rational non-maximal rank cusps. They complete somehow the talk given at the PDE seminar of Ecole Polytechnique in october 2005.
We study the stability of self-similar solutions of the binormal flow, which is a model for the dynamics of vortex filaments in fluids and super-fluids. These particular solutions form a family of evolving regular curves in that develop a singularity in finite time, indexed by a parameter . We consider curves that are small regular perturbations of for a fixed time . In particular, their curvature is not vanishing at infinity, so we are not in the context of known results of local existence...
The scattering matrix is defined on a perturbed stratified medium. For a class of perturbations, its main part at fixed energy is a Fourier integral operator on the sphere at infinity. Proving this is facilitated by developing a refined limiting absorption principle. The symbol of the scattering matrix determines the asymptotics of a large class of perturbations.
In this paper, we consider a family of scattering problems in perforated unbounded domains Ωε. We assume that the perforation is contained in a bounded region and that the holes have a ?critical? size. We study the asymptotic behaviour of the outgoing solutions of the steady-state scattering problem and we prove that an extra term appears in the limit equation. Finally, we obtain convergence results for scattering frequencies and solutions.
Strong asymptotic completeness is shown for a pair of Schrödinger type operators on a cylindrical Lipschitz domain. A key ingredient is a limiting absorption principle valid in a scale of weighted (local) Sobolev spaces with respect to the uniform topology. The results are based on a refined version of Mourre’s method within the context of pseudo-selfadjoint operators.
