Selfadjointness of Elliptic Differential Operators in L2(g), and Correction Potentials
نویسنده
چکیده
We consider the question of the essential selfadjointness of a symmetric second order elliptic operator L of general form in the space L2(G) (DL = C ∞ 0 (G)), where G is an arbitrary open set in Rn. The main idea is that using the matrix A(x) of the highest order coefficients of L and the domain G, it is possible to construct a function qA(x) such that the essential selfadjointness of L̄ follows from the semiboundedness of the operators L and L − qA(x). The function qA(x) is called the correction potential, and we suggest a number of procedures for its construction. We develop a technique which, given a correction potential allows us to establish criteria for the selfadjointness of an elliptic operator in terms of the behaviour of its coefficients. These general results are applied to the Schrödinger operator, which for G = Rn leads to new assertions that generalise a number of known theorems.

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 paper we study properties of symbols such that these belong to class of symbols sitting insideSm ρ,φ that we shall introduce as the following. So for because hypoelliptic pseudodifferential operatorsplays a key role in quantum mechanics we will investigate some properties of M−hypoelliptic pseudodifferential operators for which define base on this class of symbols. Also we consider maxi...

The objects of interest are linear first-order elliptic partial differential operators with domain //i(/?" ; C*) in L2(Rn;Ck), the first-order coefficients of which become constant and the zero-order coefficient of which vanishes outside a compact set in R". It is shown that operators of this type are "practically" Fredholm in the following way: Such an operator has a finite index which is inva...
