Is the sum of spectral projections a projection?

Let $T$ be a closed operator on a Hilbert space with discrete spectrum. Then for $\{\lambda_1,...\lambda_n\}\in\sigma(T)$ one can define the spectral projections $$P_{\{\lambda_1,...\lambda_n\}}=\frac{...

Lower bound of the spectrum of a Schrodinger operator on a bounded domain

I am trying to look for references on estimate of the lower bound of the spectrum of a Schrodinger operator $-\Delta + V$ on a bounded domain in three-dimensional space. For simplicity, we can take ...

The non empty set of accumulation points of a bounded linear operator is the spectrum of another operator

Let $X$ be an infinite dimensional Banach space, and let $T \in L(X)$ such that the set of accumulation points of $T$ is non empty, i-e $\mbox{acc}\,\sigma(T)\neq 0.$\ Is there a Banach space $Y$ ...

Methods to find the spectrum of an operator

Suppose we have a bounded, self-adjoint operator $T$ on a set of functions $\mathcal{F}$. What kinds of methods are there to find the spectrum of $T$? Here is the setting I'm wondering about: consider ...
