Weyl asymptotics vs. form perturbations
Consider Hilbert spaces $V$,$H$; a closed quadratic form $a$ with domain $V$; and its associated operator $A$ on $H$. (If necessary, the form can be assumed to be coercive.) For the sake of simplicity,...

Lebesgue integral with respect to vector measures?
Good evening,
I'm reading some papers of Jim Agler and Nicholas Young, in which they prove a formula of integral representation with respect to a vector measure, but the integration is in the sense ...

orthonormal basis of eigenvectors for laplacian on a concave polygon
I am interested in the Laplace operator $\Delta$ on a concave polygon.
When the polygon is convex, it is known that $\Delta: H^2(\Omega) \rightarrow L^2(\Omega)$
is boundedly invertible. In addition, ...

Can a self-adjoint operator have a continuous set of eigenvalues?
This should be a trivial question for mathematicians but not for typical physicists.
I know that the spectrum of a linear operator on a Banach space splits into the so-called "point," "continuous" ...

Infinite hermitian matrix
Suppose we have a finite square n x n matrix of complex numbers H that is Hermitian and skew-symmetric:
$H^\dagger = H$ and $H^T = -H$.
(T denotes transpose, $\dagger$ denote conjugate transpose. I ...
