Limiting absorption principle is justified for second-order selfadjoint elliptic operators in two-dimensional spaces.

A trace formula is proved for pairs of selfadjoint operators that are close to each other in a certain sense. An important role is played by a function analytic in the open upper half-plane and with positive imaginary part there. This function, called the characteristic function of the pair, coincides with Krĕın’s Q-function in the case where the selfadjoint operators are canonical extensions o...

We propose to build in this paper a combinatorial invariant, called the ”spectral monodromy” from the spectrum of a single (non-selfadjoint) h-pseudodifferential operator with two degrees of freedom in the semi-classical limit. Our inspiration comes from the quantum monodromy defined for the joint spectrum of an integrable system of n commuting selfadjoint h-pseudodifferential operators, given ...
