A question on essentially self-adjoint differential operators of the type $\Delta=D^{\ast}D$
Let $(M,g)$ be a smooth (connected, complete, oriented) Riemannian manifold and let $D:C^{\infty}(M)\to C^{\infty}(M)$ be a linear partial differential operator, which I view as an operator in $L^{2}(...

On constructing the canonical boundary operator for a given differential operator
Given an $n\times n$ matrix $$X=\begin{pmatrix}
x_{11} & x_{12} & \cdots & x_{1n} \\
x_{21} & x_{22} & \cdots & x_{2n} \\
\vdots & \vdots & \ddots & \vdots \\
x_{n1}...

How to prove $\operatorname{Id}-K$ is a proper map when $K$ is a $C^1$ compact operator?
Assume $X$ is a Banach space, $\Omega \subseteq X$ is an open set, $K\in {C}^{1}( \overline{\Omega}, X)$ is a nonlinear compact map, Is $\operatorname{Id}-K$ a proper map? I think maybe it has ...

Domain of Schrödinger operators
Let $S$ be a Schrödinger operator on $\mathbb{R}$, $Su=-u''+Vu$ with $V\geq1$ continuous and going to $+\infty$ at infinity (you can think of it as $x^2+1$). I wondering which assumptions do I have to ...

A property of one-parameter groups of operators
Let $X$ be a Banach space. We consider the evolution equation:
$$x'(t)=Ax(t), \ \ \ \ \ \ \ t\in \mathbb{R},$$
where $A$ is a bounded operator.
I know that if $X=\mathbb{R^n}$ and $A$ is a matrix, ...

Feynman-Kac formula for lattice heat equation with non-diagonal potential
Suppose that $X$ is the continuous-time simple symmetric random walk on the lattice $\mathbb Z^d$ (i.e., a simple symmetric random walk with i.i.d. exponential jump times), and let
$$u(t,x):=\mathbf E\...

Reference request: Original source of Yosida approximation
Numerous papers/books(citation needed) refer to the operator $$A_\lambda := \lambda AR_\lambda (A) = \lambda^2 R_\lambda(A) - \lambda I$$ where $R_\lambda(A)=(I+\lambda A)^{-1}$ is the resolvent, as ...

Equivalent ways to study a semilinear parabolic equation as a perturbed abstract Cauchy problem
I am considering the following abstract Cauchy problem on Banach space $X$:
\begin{cases}
u'(t)=Au(t)+\big(f(t)+Bu(t)\big),&t\in[0,T],\\
u(0)=x_0,
\end{cases}
Suppose $A$ generates an analyitc ...

Solution of non-linear Fredholm (Hammerstein) equation with non-degenerate kernel and reciprocal non-linearity
I have asked this question at MSE but got no response. I have rephrased it so that anyone who knows operator theory and integral equations could help me out... I faced a problem in physics which is a ...
