Factorization by Lattice Homomorphisms.
A method to study the embedded point spectrum of self-adjoint operators is described. The method combines the Mourre theory and the Limiting Absorption Principle with the Feshbach Projection Method. A more complete description of this method is contained in a joint paper with V. Jakić, where it is applied to a study of embedded point spectrum of Pauli-Fierz Hamiltonians.
A linear mapping T from a subspace E of a Banach algebra into another Banach algebra is defined to be spectrally bounded if there is a constant M ≥ 0 such that r(Tx) ≤ Mr(x) for all x ∈ E, where r(·) denotes the spectral radius. We study some basic properties of this class of operators, which are sometimes analogous to, sometimes very different from, those of bounded operators between Banach spaces.
