Absence of eigenvalues for integro-differential operators with periodic coefficients.
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 for every operator T commuting with F. The quasi-nilpotent part, the analytic core and the single-valued extension...
We consider a periodic pseudo-differential operator on the real line, which is a lower-order perturbation of an elliptic operator with a homogeneous symbol and constant coefficients. It is proved that the density of states of such an operator admits a complete asymptotic expansion at large energies. A few first terms of this expansion are found in a closed form.
We study the stability of a-Weyl's theorem under perturbations by operators in some known classes. We establish in particular that if T is a finite a-isoloid operator, then a-Weyl's theorem is transmitted from T to T + R for every Riesz operator R commuting with T.
