Uniqueness of Reflectionless Jacobi Matrices and the Denisov-rakhmanov Theorem

چکیده

If a Jacobi matrix J is reflectionless on (−2, 2) and has a single an0 equal to 1, then J is the free Jacobi matrix an ≡ 1, bn ≡ 0. I’ll discuss this result and its generalization to arbitrary sets and present several applications, including the following: if a Jacobi matrix has some portion of its an’s close to 1, then one assumption in the Denisov-Rakhmanov Theorem can be dropped. 1. Statement of results A Jacobi matrix is a difference operator of the following type: (Ju)n = anun+1 + an−1un−1 + bnun Here, an > 0 and bn ∈ R, and we also always assume that a, b are bounded sequences. Alternatively, one can represent J by a tridiagonal matrix with respect to the standard basis of `(Z): J =  . . . . . . . . . a−2 b−1 a−1 a−1 b0 a0 a0 b1 a1 . . . . . . . . .  Half line operators J+, on ` (Z+), say, are defined similarly, by considering a suitable truncation of this matrix. The case an ≡ 1 is of particular interest; these operators are called (discrete) Schrödinger operators. The Denisov-Rakhmanov (DR) Theorem [5, 10] says the following: Date: June 14, 2010.

The absolutely continuous spectrum of Jacobi matrices

I explore some consequences of a groundbreaking result of Breimesser and Pearson on the absolutely continuous spectrum of one-dimensional Schrödinger operators. These include an Oracle Theorem that predicts the potential and rather general results on the approach to certain limit potentials. In particular, we prove a Denisov-Rakhmanov type theorem for the general finite gap case. The main theme...

Finite Gap Jacobi Matrices, Ii. the Szegő Class

Let e ⊂ R be a finite union of disjoint closed intervals. We study measures whose essential support is e and whose discrete eigenvalues obey a 1/2-power condition. We show that a Szegő condition is equivalent to lim sup a1 · · · an cap(e) > 0 (this includes prior results of Widom and Peherstorfer–Yuditskii). Using Remling’s extension of the Denisov–Rakhmanov theorem and an analysis of Jost func...

Approximation Results for Reflectionless Jacobi Matrices

We study spaces of reflectionless Jacobi matrices. The main theme is the following type of question: Given a reflectionless Jacobi matrix, is it possible to approximate it by other reflectionless and, typically, simpler Jacobi matrices of a special type? For example, can we approximate by periodic operators?
