Origins of the generalized shift operator exp(t*g(z)d/dz)

Charles Graves in the 1850s investigated iterated operators of the form $g(x) \frac {d}{dx}$ (see page 13 in The Theory of Linear Operators ... (Principia Press, 1936) by Harold T. Davis). Graves ...

References for generalized confluent hypergeometric differential equation

According to Wolfram, a generalization of the confluent hypergeometric differential equation is given by: $$y''+\left(\frac{2R}{x}+2F'+p\frac{H'}{H}-H'-\frac{H''}{H'}\right) y'+\left[\left(p\frac{H'}{...

Point Spectrum of a Second Order System of Differential Equations

Consider the following operator acting on $H^1(\mathbb{R})$ $$ \mathcal{L} \left(\begin{array}{c} \phi \\ \psi \end{array}\right) = -\left(\begin{array}{c} \phi \\ \psi \end{array}\right)'' + V(x) \...

Uniqueness of analytic center manifold

In a book, i have read a remark which says that the center manifold of an equilibrium point of a differential equation is not unique in general but is unique in the class of analytic manifold. The ...

Stability of Euler discretization

I am looking at the discretization of an ODE: $$x_{n+1} = x_n + \alpha f(x_n),$$ where $x_n\in R^d$ and $f$ is continuously differentiable and such that $f(0)=0$ and $f'(0)$ is Hurwitz (i.e., the real ...
