-linear operators in quantum mechanics and in economy.
We consider the zigzag half-nanotubes (tight-binding approximation) in a uniform magnetic field which is described by the magnetic Schrödinger operator with a periodic potential plus a finitely supported perturbation. We describe all eigenvalues and resonances of this operator, and theirs dependence on the magnetic field. The proof is reduced to the analysis of the periodic Jacobi operators on the half-line with finitely supported perturbations.
Given a Hilbert space with a Borel probability measure , we prove the -dissipativity in of a Kolmogorov operator that is a perturbation, not necessarily of gradient type, of an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator.
This paper deals with the spectral study of the streaming operator with general boundary conditions defined by means of a boundary operator . We study the positivity and the irreducibility of the generated semigroup proved in [M. Boulanouar, L’opérateur d’Advection: existence d’un -semi-groupe (I), Transp. Theory Stat. Phys. 31, 2002, 153–167], in the case . We also give some spectral properties of the streaming operator and we characterize the type of the generated semigroup in terms of the...
We discuss spectral and scattering theory of the discrete laplacian limited to a half-space. The interesting properties of such operators stem from the imposed boundary condition and are related to certain phenomena in surface physics.
We consider a quasistatic frictional contact problem between a viscoelastic body with long memory and a deformable foundation. The contact is modelled with normal compliance in such a way that the penetration is limited and restricted to unilateral constraint. The adhesion between contact surfaces is taken into account and the evolution of the bonding field is described by a first order differential equation. We derive a variational formulation and prove the existence and uniqueness result of the...
