Spectral Properties of Non-local Uniformly-elliptic Operators

چکیده
In this paper we consider the spectral properties of a class of non-local uniformly elliptic operators, which arise from the study of non-local uniformly elliptic partial differential equations. Such equations arise naturally in the study of a variety of physical and biological systems with examples ranging from Ohmic heating to population dynamics. The operators studied here are bounded perturbations of linear (local) differential operators, and the non-local perturbation is in the form of an integral term. We study the eigenvalues, the multiplicities of these eigenvalues, and the existence of corresponding positive eigenfunctions. It is shown here that the spectral properties of these non-local operators can differ considerably from those of their local counterpart. However, we show that under suitable hypotheses, there still exists a principal eigenvalue of these operators.

Asymptotic distribution of eigenvalues of the elliptic operator system
Since the theory of spectral properties of non-self-accession differential operators on Sobolev spaces is an important field in mathematics, therefore, different techniques are used to study them. In this paper, two types of non-self-accession differential operators on Sobolev spaces are considered and their spectral properties are investigated with two different and new techniques.

Let $$(Lv)(t)=sum^{n} _{i,j=1} (-1)^{j} d_{j} left( s^{2alpha}(t) b_{ij}(t) mu(t) d_{i}v(t)right),$$ be a non-selfadjoint differential operator on the Hilbert space $L_{2}(Omega)$ with Dirichlet-type boundary conditions. In continuing of papers [10-12], let the conditions made on the operator $ L$ be sufficiently more general than [11] and [12] as defined in Section $1$. In this paper, we estim...
متن کاملFurther spectral properties of uniformly elliptic operators that include a non-local term
In this paper we consider the eigenvalues of a class of non-local differential operators. The real eigenvalues of certain examples of these operators have previously been plotted (as functions of a fundamental parameter in the operator), using appropriate computer software. Here we show how the complex eigenvalues of such operators may also be plotted. We use the plots of both the real and the ...
متن کاملResolvent estimates for non-selfadjoint operators with double characteristics
We present recent progress in the understanding of the spectral and subelliptic properties of non-elliptic quadratic operators with application to the study of return to equilibrium for some systems of chains of oscillators. We then explain how these results allow to describe the spectral properties and to give sharp resolvent estimates for some classes of non-selfadjoint pseudodi erential oper...
