Book Description
In this monograph the author develops the spectral theory for an $n$th order two-point differential operator $L$ in the Hilbert space $L2[0,1]$, where $L$ is determined by an $n$th order formal differential operator $\ell$ having variable coefficients and by $n$ linearly independent boundary values $B 1, \ldots, B n$. Using the Birkhoff approximate solutions of the differential equation $(\rhon I - \ell)u = 0$, the differential operator $L$ is classified as belonging to one of threepossible classes: regular, simply irregular, or degenerate irregular. For the regular and simply irregular classes, the author develops asymptotic expansions of solutions of the differential equation $(\rhon I - \ell)u = 0$, constructs the characteristic determinant and Green's function,characterizes the eigenvalues and the corresponding algebraic multiplicities and ascents, and shows that the generalized eigenfunctions of $L$ are complete in $L2[0,1]$. He also gives examples of degenerate irregular differential operators illustrating some of the unusual features of this class.

A Proof of Alon's Second Eigenvalue Conjecture and Related Problems
Author: Joel Friedman
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 0821842803
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 114
Book Description
A $d$-regular graph has largest or first (adjacency matrix) eigenvalue $\lambda_1=d$. Consider for an even $d\ge 4$, a random $d$-regular graph model formed from $d/2$ uniform, independent permutations on $\{1,\ldots,n\}$. The author shows that for any $\epsilon>0$ all eigenvalues aside from $\lambda_1=d$ are bounded by $2\sqrt{d-1}\;+\epsilon$ with probability $1-O(n^{-\tau})$, where $\tau=\lceil \bigl(\sqrt{d-1}\;+1\bigr)/2 \rceil-1$. He also shows that this probability is at most $1-c/n^{\tau'}$, for a constant $c$ and a $\tau'$ that is either $\tau$ or $\tau+1$ (``more often'' $\tau$ than $\tau+1$). He proves related theorems for other models of random graphs, including models with $d$ odd.

Points and Curves in the Monster Tower
Author: Richard Montgomery
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 0821848186
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 154
Book Description
Cartan introduced the method of prolongation which can be applied either to manifolds with distributions (Pfaffian systems) or integral curves to these distributions. Repeated application of prolongation to the plane endowed with its tangent bundle yields the Monster tower, a sequence of manifolds, each a circle bundle over the previous one, each endowed with a rank $2$ distribution. In an earlier paper (2001), the authors proved that the problem of classifying points in the Monster tower up to symmetry is the same as the problem of classifying Goursat distribution flags up to local diffeomorphism. The first level of the Monster tower is a three-dimensional contact manifold and its integral curves are Legendrian curves. The philosophy driving the current work is that all questions regarding the Monster tower (and hence regarding Goursat distribution germs) can be reduced to problems regarding Legendrian curve singularities.

Unitary Invariants in Multivariable Operator Theory
Author: Gelu Popescu
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 0821843966
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 105
Book Description
This paper concerns unitary invariants for $n$-tuples $T:=(T_1,\ldots, T_n)$ of (not necessarily commuting) bounded linear operators on Hilbert spaces. The author introduces a notion of joint numerical radius and works out its basic properties. Multivariable versions of Berger's dilation theorem, Berger-Kato-Stampfli mapping theorem, and Schwarz's lemma from complex analysis are obtained. The author studies the joint (spatial) numerical range of $T$ in connection with several unitary invariants for $n$-tuples of operators such as: right joint spectrum, joint numerical radius, euclidean operator radius, and joint spectral radius. He also proves an analogue of Toeplitz-Hausdorff theorem on the convexity of the spatial numerical range of an operator on a Hilbert space, for the joint numerical range of operators in the noncommutative analytic Toeplitz algebra $F_n^\infty$.

Twisted Pseudodifferential Calculus and Application to the Quantum Evolution of Molecules
Author: Andr Martinez
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 082184296X
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 96
Book Description
The authors construct an abstract pseudodifferential calculus with operator-valued symbol, suitable for the treatment of Coulomb-type interactions, and they apply it to the study of the quantum evolution of molecules in the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, in the case of the electronic Hamiltonian admitting a local gap in its spectrum. In particular, they show that the molecular evolution can be reduced to the one of a system of smooth semiclassical operators, the symbol of which can be computed explicitely. In addition, they study the propagation of certain wave packets up to long time values of Ehrenfest order.

Center Manifolds for Semilinear Equations with Non-Dense Domain and Applications to Hopf Bifurcation in Age Structured Models
Author: Pierre Magal
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 0821846531
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 84
Book Description
Several types of differential equations, such as delay differential equations, age-structure models in population dynamics, evolution equations with boundary conditions, can be written as semilinear Cauchy problems with an operator which is not densely defined in its domain. The goal of this paper is to develop a center manifold theory for semilinear Cauchy problems with non-dense domain. Using Liapunov-Perron method and following the techniques of Vanderbauwhede et al. in treating infinite dimensional systems, the authors study the existence and smoothness of center manifolds for semilinear Cauchy problems with non-dense domain. As an application, they use the center manifold theorem to establish a Hopf bifurcation theorem for age structured models.

Cohomological Invariants: Exceptional Groups and Spin Groups
Author: Skip Garibaldi
Publisher: American Mathematical Soc.
ISBN: 0821844040
Category : Mathematics
Languages : en
Pages : 102
Book Description
This volume concerns invariants of $G$-torsors with values in mod $p$ Galois cohomology--in the sense of Serre's lectures in the book Cohomological invariants in Galois cohomology--for various simple algebraic groups $G$ and primes $p$. The author determines the invariants for the exceptional groups $F_4$ mod 3, simply connected $E_6$ mod 3, $E_7$ mod 3, and $E_8$ mod 5. He also determines the invariants of $\mathrm{Spin}_n$ mod 2 for $n \leq 12$ and constructs some invariants of $\mathrm{Spin}_{14}$. Along the way, the author proves that certain maps in nonabelian cohomology are surjective. These surjectivities give as corollaries Pfister's results on 10- and 12-dimensional quadratic forms and Rost's theorem on 14-dimensional quadratic forms. This material on quadratic forms and invariants of $\mathrm{Spin}_n$ is based on unpublished work of Markus Rost. An appendix by Detlev Hoffmann proves a generalization of the Common Slot Theorem for 2-Pfister quadratic forms.
