We study spectral asymptotics for small non-selfadjoint perturbations of selfadjoint h-pseudodifferential operators in dimension 2, assuming that the classical flow of the unperturbed part possesses several invariant Lagrangian tori enjoying a Diophantine property. We get complete asymptotic expansions for all eigenvalues in certain rectangles in the complex plane in two different cases: in the...

Using Voiculescu’s notion of a matricial microstate we introduce fractal dimensions and entropies for finite sets of selfadjoint operators in a tracial von Neumann algebra. We show that they possess properties similar to their classical predecessors. We relate the new quantities to free entropy and free entropy dimension and show that a modified version of free Hausdorff dimension is an algebra...

We consider elliptic operators A on a bounded domain, that are compact perturbations of a selfadjoint operator. We first recall some spectral properties of such operators: localization of the spectrum and resolvent estimates. We then derive a spectral inequality that measures the norm of finite sums of root vectors of A through an observation, with an exponential cost. Following the strategy of...

This is the second in a series of works devoted to small non-selfadjoint perturbations of selfadjoint semiclassical pseudodifferential operators in dimension 2. As in our previous work, we consider the case when the classical flow of the unperturbed part is periodic. Under the assumption that the flow average of the leading perturbation vanishes identically, we show how to obtain a complete asy...

We introduce and investigate the orbit-closed $C$-numerical range, a natural modification of range an operator introduced for $C$ trace-class by Dirr vom Ende. Our is conservative theirs because these two sets have same closure even coincide when finite rank. Since Ende's results concerning depend only on its closure, our inherits properties, but we also establish more. For selfadjoint, Ende we...

We use a “weakly formulated” Sylvester equation H1/2TM−1/2 −H−1/2TM1/2 = F to obtain new bounds for the rotation of spectral subspaces of a nonnegative selfadjoint operator in a Hilbert space. Our bound extends the known results of Davis and Kahan. Another application is a bound for the square root of a positive selfadjoint operator which extends the known rule: “The relative error in the squar...

The representations of the degenerate affine Hecke algebra in which the analogues of the Dunkl operators are given by finite-difference operators are introduced. The non-selfadjoint lattice analogues of the spin Calogero-Sutherland hamiltonians are analysed by Bethe-Ansatz. The sl(m)-Yangian representations arising from the finite-difference representations of the degenerate affine Hecke algebr...
