Singular boundary conditions for Sturm–Liouville operators via perturbation theory

Boundary Conditions for Singular Perturbations of Self-Adjoint Operators

Let A : D(A) ⊆ H → H be an injective self-adjoint operator and let τ : D(A) → X, X a Banach space, be a surjective linear map such that ‖τφ‖X ≤ c ‖Aφ‖H. Supposing that Range (τ ) ∩ H = {0}, we define a family AτΘ of self-adjoint operators which are extensions of the symmetric operator A|{τ=0} . Any φ in the operator domain D(A τ Θ) is characterized by a sort of boundary conditions on its univoc...

Boundary Conditions for Singular Perturbations

Let A : D(A) H ! H be an injective self-adjoint operator and let : D(A) ! X, X a Banach space, be a surjective linear map such that k k X c kAAk H. Supposing that Range (0) \ H 0 = f0g, we deene a family A of self-adjoint operators which are extensions of the symmetric operator A jf =0g. Any in the operator domain D(A) is characterized by a sort of boundary conditions on its univocally deened r...

Singular perturbation theory

When we apply the steady-state approximation (SSA) in chemical kinetics, we typically argue that some of the intermediates are highly reactive, so that they are removed as fast as they are made. We then set the corresponding rates of change to zero. What we are saying is not that these rates are identically zero, of course, but that they are much smaller than the other rates of reaction. The st...

Boundary Value Problems with Singular Boundary Conditions

Singular boundary conditions are formulated for non-selfadjoint Sturm-Liouville operators with singularities and turning points. For boundary value problems with singular boundary conditions properties of the spectrum are studied and the completeness of the system of root functions is proved.
