Existence of the Spectral Gap for Elliptic Operators

چکیده
Let M be a connected, noncompact, complete Riemannian manifold, consider the operator L = ∆+∇V for some V ∈ C(M) with exp[V ] integrable w.r.t. the Riemannian volume element. This paper studies the existence of the spectral gap of L. As a consequence of the main result, let ρ be the distance function from a point o, then the spectral gap exists provided limρ→∞ supLρ < 0 while the spectral gap does not exist if o is a pole and limρ→∞ inf Lρ ≥ 0. Moreover, the elliptic operators on R are also studied.

The spectral properties of differential operators with matrix coefficients on elliptic systems with boundary conditions
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 کاملAsymptotic 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.

In this work, we prove the existence of a spectral function for singular q-Sturm-Liouville operator. Further, we establish a Parseval equality and expansion formula in eigenfunctions by terms of the spectral function.
متن کاملSpectral Gaps for Periodic Elliptic Operators with High Contrast: an Overview
We discuss the band-gap structure and the integrated density of states for periodic elliptic operators in the Hilbert space L2(R m), for m ≥ 2. We specifically consider situations where high contrast in the coefficients leads to weak coupling between the period cells. Weak coupling of periodic systems frequently produces spectral gaps or spectral concentration. Our examples include Schrödinger ...
