Adjoints and Self-Adjoint Operators
Let V and W be real or complex finite dimensional vector spaces with inner products 〈·, ·〉V and 〈·, ·〉W , respectively. Let L : V → W be linear. If there is a transformation L∗ : W → V for which 〈Lv,w〉W = 〈v, Lw〉V (1) holds for every pair of vectors v ∈ V and w in W , then L∗ is said to be the adjoint of L. Some of the properties of L∗ are listed below. Proposition 1.1. Let L : V →W be linear. ...
متن کاملNon-self-adjoint Differential Operators
We describe methods which have been used to analyze the spectrum of non-self-adjoint differential operators, emphasizing the differences from the self-adjoint theory. We find that even in cases in which the eigenfunctions can be determined explicitly, they often do not form a basis; this is closely related to a high degree of instability of the eigenvalues under small perturbations of the opera...
متن کاملDiagonals of Self-adjoint Operators
The eigenvalues of a self-adjoint n×n matrix A can be put into a decreasing sequence λ = (λ1, . . . , λn), with repetitions according to multiplicity, and the diagonal of A is a point of R that bears some relation to λ. The Schur-Horn theorem characterizes that relation in terms of a system of linear inequalities. We prove an extension of the latter result for positive trace-class operators on ...
متن کاملAdjoint and self - adjoint differential operators on graphs ∗
A differential operator on a directed graph with weighted edges is characterized as a system of ordinary differential operators. A class of local operators is introduced to clarify which operators should be considered as defined on the graph. When the edge lengths have a positive lower bound, all local self-adjoint extensions of the minimal symmetric operator may be classified by boundary condi...
متن کاملNon-Self-Adjoint Operators and Pseudospectra
The theory of pseudospectra has grown rapidly since its emergence from within numerical analysis around 1990. We describe some of its applications to the stability theory of differential operators, to WKB analysis and even to orthogonal polynomials. Although currently more a way of looking at non-self-adjoint operators than a list of theorems, its future seems to be assured by the growing numbe...
