Relations between two Schwartz kernels in dimensions $n$ and $n+1$

Let $(M,g)$ be an $n$-dimensional pseudo-Riemannian manifold and $\Box_g$ be the Laplace-Beltrami operator on $M$. Consider $z \in \mathbb{C}$ such that $\mathrm{ Im}(z)>0$, and we define $P_0 := \...

Integrating the resolvent of a self-adjoint operator across a continuous part of the spectrum

Let $A$ be a closed self-adjoint operator on a Hilbert space $H$, possibly unbounded and hence defined on a dense domain $D(A) \subset H$. It is well known that integrating the resolvent $R_z = (z I - ...

Interesting examples of spectral decompositions of BOUNDED operators with both continuous and discrete spectrum

I would like to have a few basic examples of bounded self-adjoint operators $T$ (more generally bounded normal would be fine) on a Hilbert space $(H,\langle,\rangle)$ for which the following criteria ...

A representation of positive matrix

Let $\mathcal H$ be a Hilbert space. Let $-\frac{1}{2}<r<0.$ Denote $c_p:=\int_{0}^\infty\frac{t^r}{1+t}dt.$ Suppose $A$ be a positive invertible operator in $B(\mathcal H).$ Is it true that $A^...

A gap in the proof of uniqueness of functional calculus based on a spectral theorem

This question considers the proof of a fundamental theorem of functional calculus, given in the book Spectral Theory - Basic Concepts and Applications by David Borthwick (Theorem 5.9). Firstly we have ...

"Trade-off" between bound on the function and on the spectrum for functional calculus in spectral theory

Let $A$ be a self-adjoint (unbounded) operator on a separable Hilbert space $H$. From the following form of spectral theorem, we may define a functional calculus by $f(A)=Q^{-1} M_{f\circ \alpha} Q$. (...
