We consider the problem of approximation of eigenvalues of a self-adjoint operator J defined by a Jacobi matrix in the Hilbert space l 2(ℕ) by eigenvalues of principal finite submatrices of an infinite Jacobi matrix that defines this operator. We assume the operator J is bounded from below with compact resolvent. In our research we estimate the asymptotics (with n → ∞) of the joint error of approximation for the eigenvalues, numbered from 1 to N; of J by the eigenvalues of the finite submatrix J...

We consider an infinite Jacobi matrix with off-diagonal entries dominated by the diagonal entries going to infinity. The corresponding self-adjoint operator J has discrete spectrum and our purpose is to present results on the approximation of eigenvalues of J by eigenvalues of its finite submatrices.

We study the essential ascent and the related essential ascent spectrum of an operator on a Banach space. We show that a Banach space X has finite dimension if and only if the essential ascent of every operator on X is finite. We also focus on the stability of the essential ascent spectrum under perturbations, and we prove that an operator F on X has some finite rank power if and only if ${\sigma }_{asc}^e(T+F)={\sigma }_{asc}^e\left(T\right)$ for every operator T commuting with F. The quasi-nilpotent part, the analytic core and the single-valued extension...

The problem to be treated in this note is concerned with the asymptotic behaviour of stochastic semigroups, as the time becomes very large. The subject is largely motived by the Theory of Markov processes. Stochastic semigroups usually arise from pure probabilistic problems such as random walks stochastic differential equations and many others.An outline of the paper is as follows. Section one deals with the basic definitions relative to K-positivity and stochastic semigroups. Asymptotic behaviour...

Let G be a finite connected graph on two or more vertices, and $G^{[N,k]}$ the distance-k graph of the N-fold Cartesian power of G. For a fixed k ≥ 1, we obtain explicitly the large N limit of the spectral distribution (the eigenvalue distribution of the adjacency matrix) of $G^{[N,k]}$. The limit distribution is described in terms of the Hermite polynomials. The proof is based on asymptotic combinatorics along with quantum probability theory.

In the present paper, we study a-Weyl's and a-Browder's theorem for an operator T such that T or T* satisfies the single valued extension property (SVEP). We establish that if T* has the SVEP, then T obeys a-Weyl's theorem if and only if it obeys Weyl's theorem. Further, if T or T* has the SVEP, we show that the spectral mapping theorem holds for the essential approximative point spectrum, and that a-Browder's theorem is satisfied by f(T) whenever f ∈ H(σ(T)). We also provide several conditions...

We introduce and study the notions of upper and lower semiregularities in Banach algebras. These notions generalize the previously studied notion of regularity - a class is a regularity if and only if it is both upper and lower semiregularity. Each semiregularity defines in a natural way a spectrum which satisfies a one-way spectral mapping property (the spectrum defined by a regularity satisfies the both-ways spectral mapping property).

Let X, Y be Banach spaces, S: X → Y and R: Y → X be bounded operators. We investigate common spectral properties of RS and SR. We then apply the result obtained to extensions, Aluthge transforms and upper triangular operator matrices.

Using axiomatic joint spectra we obtain a functional calculus which extends our previous Gelfand-Waelbroeck type results to include a Banach-valued Taylor-Waelbroeck spectrum.

Let $X$ be a Banach space and $T$ be a bounded linear operator on $X$. We denote by $S\left(T\right)$ the set of all complex $\lambda \in ℂ$ such that $T$ does not have the single-valued extension property at $\lambda$. In this note we prove equality up to $S\left(T\right)$ between the left Drazin spectrum, the upper semi-B-Fredholm spectrum and the semi-essential approximate point spectrum. As applications, we investigate generalized Weyl’s theorem for operator matrices and multiplier operators.

For a linear operator T in a Banach space let ${\sigma }_p\left(T\right)$ denote the point spectrum of T, let ${\sigma }_{p,n}\left(T\right)$ for finite n > 0 be the set of all $\lambda \in {\sigma }_p\left(T\right)$ such that dim ker(T - λ) = n and let ${\sigma }_{p,\infty }\left(T\right)$ be the set of all $\lambda \in {\sigma }_p\left(T\right)$ for which ker(T - λ) is infinite-dimensional. It is shown that ${\sigma }_p\left(T\right)$ is ${ℱ}_{\sigma }$, ${\sigma }_{p,\infty }\left(T\right)$ is ${ℱ}_{\sigma \delta }$ and for each finite n the set ${\sigma }_{p,n}\left(T\right)$ is the intersection of an ${ℱ}_{\sigma }$ set and a ${}_{\delta }$ set provided T is closable and the domain of T is separable and weakly σ-compact. For closed densely defined operators in a separable Hilbert space a more detailed decomposition...

Let $f$ be a non-zero positive vector of a Banach lattice $L$, and let $T$ be a positive linear operator on $L$ with the spectral radius $r\left(T\right)$. We find some groups of assumptions on $L$, $T$ and $f$ under which the inequalities $$sup\{c\ge 0:Tf\ge cf\}\le r\left(T\right)\le inf\{c\ge 0:Tf\le cf\}$$ hold. An application of our results gives simple upper and lower bounds for the spectral radius of a product of positive operators in terms of positive eigenvectors corresponding to the spectral radii of given operators. We thus extend the matrix result obtained by Johnson and Bru which...

For a Banach space X such that all quotients only admit direct decompositions with a number of summands smaller than or equal to n, we show that every operator T on X can be identified with an n × n scalar matrix modulo the strictly cosingular operators SC(X). More precisely, we obtain an algebra isomorphism from the Calkin algebra L(X)/SC(X) onto a subalgebra of the algebra of n × n scalar matrices which is triangularizable when X is indecomposable. From this fact we get some information on the...
