Eigenvalues of non-hermitian matrices: a dynamical and an iterative approach. Application to a truncated Swanson model

2020

We propose two different strategies to find eigenvalues and eigenvectors of a given, not necessarily Hermitian, matrix (Formula presented.). Our methods apply also to the case of complex eigenvalues, making the strategies interesting for applications to physics and to pseudo-Hermitian quantum mechanics in particular. We first consider a dynamical approach, based on a pair of ordinary differential equations defined in terms of the matrix (Formula presented.) and of its adjoint (Formula presented.). Then, we consider an extension of the so-called power method, for which we prove a fixed point theorem for (Formula presented.) useful in the determination of the eigenvalues of (Formula presented…

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.

Markov extensions for multi-dimensional dynamical systems

1999

By a result of F. Hofbauer [11], piecewise monotonic maps of the interval can be identified with topological Markov chains with respect to measures with large entropy. We generalize this to arbitrary piecewise invertible dynamical systems under the following assumption: the total entropy of the system should be greater than the topological entropy of the boundary of some reasonable partition separating almost all orbits. We get a sufficient condition for these maps to have a finite number of invariant and ergodic probability measures with maximal entropy. We illustrate our results by quoting an application to a class of multi-dimensional, non-linear, non-expansive smooth dynamical systems.

Quasispheres and metric doubling measures

2018

Applying the Bonk-Kleiner characterization of Ahlfors 2-regular quasispheres, we show that a metric two-sphere $X$ is a quasisphere if and only if $X$ is linearly locally connected and carries a weak metric doubling measure, i.e., a measure that deforms the metric on $X$ without much shrinking.

A Note on States and Traces from Biorthogonal Sets

2019

In this paper, following Bagarello, Trapani, and myself, we generalize the Gibbs states and their related KMS-like conditions. We have assumed that H 0 , H are closed and, at least, densely defined, without giving information on the domain of these operators. The problem we address in this paper is therefore to find a dense domain D that allows us to generalize the states of Gibbs and take them in their natural environment i.e., defined in L &dagger

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.

PIP-Space Valued Reproducing Pairs of Measurable Functions

2019

We analyze the notion of reproducing pairs of weakly measurable functions, a generalization of continuous frames. The aim is to represent elements of an abstract space Y as superpositions of weakly measurable functions belonging to a space Z : = Z ( X , μ ), where ( X , μ ) is a measure space. Three cases are envisaged, with increasing generality: (i) Y and Z are both Hilbert spaces; (ii) Y is a Hilbert space, but Z is a pip-space; (iii) Y and Z are both pip-spaces. It is shown, in particular, that the requirement that a pair of measurable functions be reproducing strongly constrains the structure of the initial space Y. Examples are presented for each case.
