Eigenvalues and Eigenfunctions of the Laplacian

چکیده

The problem of determining the eigenvalues and eigenvectors for linear operators acting on finite dimensional vector spaces is a problem known to every student of linear algebra. This problem has a wide range of applications and is one of the main tools for dealing with such linear operators. Some of the results concerning these eigenvalues and eigenvectors can be extended to infinite dimensional vector spaces. In this article we will consider the eigenvalue problem for the Laplace operator acting on the L space of functions on a bounded domain in R. We prove that the eigenfunctions form an orthonormal basis for this space of functions and that the eigenvalues of these functions grow without bound.

On Generalization of Sturm-Liouville Theory for Fractional Bessel Operator

In this paper, we give the spectral theory for eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of a boundary value problem consisting of the linear fractional Bessel operator. Moreover, we show that this operator is self-adjoint, the eigenvalues of the problem are real, and the corresponding eigenfunctions are orthogonal. In this paper, we give the spectral theory for eigenvalues and eigenfunctions...

Asymptotic Distributions of Estimators of Eigenvalues and Eigenfunctions in Functional Data

Functional data analysis is a relatively new and rapidly growing area of statistics. This is partly due to technological advancements which have made it possible to generate new types of data that are in the form of curves. Because the data are functions, they lie in function spaces, which are of infinite dimension. To analyse functional data, one way, which is widely used, is to employ princip...

Seidel Signless Laplacian Energy of Graphs

Let $S(G)$ be the Seidel matrix of a graph $G$ of order $n$ and let $D_S(G)=diag(n-1-2d_1, n-1-2d_2,ldots, n-1-2d_n)$ be the diagonal matrix with $d_i$ denoting the degree of a vertex $v_i$ in $G$. The Seidel Laplacian matrix of $G$ is defined as $SL(G)=D_S(G)-S(G)$ and the Seidel signless Laplacian matrix as $SL^+(G)=D_S(G)+S(G)$. The Seidel signless Laplacian energy $E_{SL^+...

MAT 280: Laplacian Eigenfunctions: Theory, Applications, and Computations Lectures 14: Shape Recognition Using Laplacian Eigenvalues and Computational Methods of Laplacian Eigenvalues/Eigenfunctions

In this section, we will introduce the work of Kbabou, Hermi, and Rhonma (2007)[2]. Their main idea is to use the eigenvalues and their ratios of the Dirichlet-Laplacian for various planar shapes as their features for classifying them. Let the sequence 0 < λ 1 < λ 2 ≤ λ 3 ≤ · · · ≤ λ k ≤ · · · → ∞ be the sequence of eigenvalues of Dirichlet-Laplacian problem: −∆u = λu in a given bounded planar ...

Sturm-Liouville Fuzzy Problem with Fuzzy Eigenvalue Parameter

This study is on the fuzzy eigenvalues and fuzzy eigenfunctions of the Sturm-Liouville fuzzy problem with fuzzy eigenvalue parameter. We find fuzzy eigenvalues and fuzzy eigenfunctions of the problem under the approach of Hukuhara differentiability. We solve an example. We draw the graphics of eigenfunctions. We show that eigenfunctions are valid fuzzy functions or not.
