FOURIER TRANSFORMS, FRACTIONAL DERIVATIVES, AND A LITTLE BIT OF QUANTUM MECHANICS
2020
We discuss some of the mathematical properties of the fractional derivative defined by means of Fourier transforms. We first consider its action on the set of test functions $\Sc(\mathbb R)$, and then we extend it to its dual set, $\Sc'(\mathbb R)$, the set of tempered distributions, provided they satisfy some mild conditions. We discuss some examples, and we show how our definition can be used in a quantum mechanical context.
Cyclic (noncyclic) phi-condensing operator and its application to a system of differential equations
2019
We establish a best proximity pair theorem for noncyclic φ-condensing operators in strictly convex Banach spaces by using a measure of noncompactness. We also obtain a counterpart result for cyclic φ-condensing operators in Banach spaces to guarantee the existence of best proximity points, and so, an extension of Darbo’s fixed point theorem will be concluded. As an application of our results, we study the existence of a global optimal solution for a system of ordinary differential equations.
Solutions and positive solutions for superlinear Robin problems
2019
We consider nonlinear, nonhomogeneous Robin problems with a (p − 1)-superlinear reaction term, which need not satisfy the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition. We look for positive solutions and prove existence and multiplicity theorems. For the particular case of the p-Laplacian, we prove existence results under a different geometry near the origin.We consider nonlinear, nonhomogeneous Robin problems with a (p − 1)-superlinear reaction term, which need not satisfy the Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition.

Optimal lower bounds for eigenvalues of linear and nonlinear Neumann problems
2013
In this paper we prove a sharp lower bound for the first non-trivial Neumann eigenvalue μ1(Ω) for the p-Laplace operator (p > 1) in a Lipschitz bounded domain Ω in ℝn. Our estimate does not require any convexity assumption on Ω and it involves the best isoperimetric constant relative to Ω. In a suitable class of convex planar domains, our bound turns out to be better than the one provided by the Payne—Weinberger inequality.
CHARACTERIZATIONS OF STRICTLY SINGULAR AND STRICTLY COSINGULAR OPERATORS BY PERTURBATION CLASSES
2011
AbstractWe consider a class of operators that contains the strictly singular operators and it is contained in the perturbation class of the upper semi-Fredholm operators PΦ+. We show that this class is strictly contained in PΦ+, solving a question of Friedman. We obtain similar results for the strictly cosingular operators and the perturbation class of the lower semi-Fredholm operators PΦ−. We also characterize in terms of PΦ+ and in terms of PΦ−. As a consequence, we show that and are the biggest operator ideals contained in PΦ+ and PΦ−, respectively.
On non-self-adjoint operators defined by Riesz bases in Hilbert and rigged Hilbert spaces
2018
In this paper we discuss some results on non self-adjoint Hamiltonians with real discrete simple spectrum under the assumption that their eigenvectors form Riesz bases of a certain Hilbert space. Also, we exhibit a generalization of those results to the case of rigged Hilbert spaces, and we also consider the problem of the factorization of the aforementioned Hamiltonians in terms of generalized lowering and raising operators.
Determinant Bundles over Grassmannians
1989
Denoting by H the Hilbert space of square-integrable Dirac spinor fields on a manifold M, transforming according to a unitary representation p of a gauge group G, we have a linear representation of the group g of gauge transformations in the space H. If ρ is faithful we can consider g as a subgroup of the general linear group GL(H). By constructing representations of GL(H) we automatically obtain representations of g. It turns out that in the case when the dimension d of M is odd, g is contained in a smaller group GLp ⊂ GL(H) which has the property that it perturbs the subspace H+ ⊂ H consisting of eigenvectors of a Dirac operator belonging to positive eigenvalues, by an operator A for whic…
Trace Operators on Regular Trees
2020
Abstract We consider different notions of boundary traces for functions in Sobolev spaces defined on regular trees and show that the almost everywhere existence of these traces is independent of the chosen definition of a trace.
Scattering resonances and Pseudospectrum : stability and completeness aspects in optical and gravitational systems
2022
The general context of this thesis is an effort to establish a bridge between gravitational andoptical physics, specifically in the context of scattering problems using as a guideline concepts andtools taken from the theory of non-self-adjoint operators. Our focus is on Quasi-Normal Modes(QNMs), namely the natural resonant modes of open leaky structures under linear perturbationssubject to outgoing boundary conditions. They also are referred to as scattering resonances.In the conservative self-adjoint case the spectral theorem guarantees the completeness andspectral stability of the associated normal modes. In this sense, a natural question in the non-self-adjoint setting refers to the char…
Resonances for nonanalytic potentials
2009
We consider semiclassical Schr"odinger operators on $R^n$, with $C^infty$ potentials decaying polynomially at infinity. The usual theories of resonances do not apply in such a non-analytic framework. Here, under some additional conditions, we show that resonances are invariantly defined up to any power of their imaginary part. The theory is based on resolvent estimates for families of approximating distorted operators with potentials that are holomorphic in narrow complex sectors around $R^n$.
