Spectral Functions in Mathematics and Physicsby Klaus Kirsten
CRC Press 2001; US$ 119.95Over the last several years, the author and his colleagues have developed new methods for the exact analysis of different spectral functions that are significant in physics. This text provides a comprehensive description of these techniques and their various applications. more...
Spectral Methods for Time-Dependent Problemsby Jan Hesthaven; Sigal Gottlieb; David Gottlieb
Cambridge University Press 2007; US$ 80.00Spectral methods are useful techniques for solving integral and partial differential equations, many of which appear in fluid mechanics and engineering problems. Based on a graduate course, these popular and efficient techniques are presented with both rigorous analysis and extensive coverage of their wide range of applications. more...
Spectral Analysis Of Differential Operatorsby Fedor S Rofe-Beketov; Aleksandr M Kholkin
World Scientific 2005; US$ 121.00This is the first monograph devoted to the Sturm oscillatory theory for infinite systems of differential equations and its relations with the spectral theory. It aims to study a theory of self-adjoint problems for such systems, based on an elegant method of binary relations. Another topic investigated in the book is the behavior of discrete eigenvalues which appear in spectral gaps of the Hill operator and almost periodic Schrödinger operators due to local perturbations of the potential (e.g., modeling impurities in crystals). The book is based on results that have not been presented in other monographs. The only prerequisites needed to read it are basics of ordinary differential equations and operator theory. It should be accessible to graduate... more...
Spectral Theory And Nonlinear Analysis With Applications To Spatial Ecologyby S. Cano-Casanova; J López-Gómez; C Mora-Corral
World Scientific 2005; US$ 124.00This volume details some of the latest advances in spectral theory and nonlinear analysis through various cutting-edge theories on algebraic multiplicities, global bifurcation theory, non-linear Schrödinger equations, non-linear boundary value problems, large solutions, metasolutions, dynamical systems, and applications to spatial ecology. The main scope of the book is bringing together a series of topics that have evolved separately during the last decades around the common denominator of spectral theory and nonlinear analysis ? from the most abstract developments up to the most concrete applications to population dynamics and socio-biology ? in an effort to fill the existing gaps between these fields. more...
Periodically Correlated Random Sequencesby Harry L. Hurd; Abolghassem Miamee
John Wiley & Sons, Inc. 2007; US$ 135.00Uniquely combining theory, application, and computing, this book explores the spectral approach to time series analysis The use of periodically correlated (or cyclostationary) processes has become increasingly popular in a range of research areas such as meteorology, climate, communications, economics, and machine diagnostics. Periodically Correlated Random Sequences presents the main ideas of these processes through the use of basic definitions along with motivating, insightful, and illustrative examples. Extensive coverage of key concepts is provided, including second-order theory, Hilbert spaces, Fourier theory, and the spectral theory of harmonizable sequences. The authors also provide a paradigm for nonparametric time series analysis including... more...
Algebraic Multiplicity of Eigenvalues of Linear Operatorsby J. López-gómez; C. Mora-corral
Springer 2007; US$ 169.00This book brings together all available results about the theory of algebraic multiplicities, from the most classic results, like the Jordan Theorem, to the most recent developments, like the uniqueness theorem and the construction of the multiplicity for non-analytic families. Part I (first three chapters) is a classic course on finite-dimensional spectral theory, Part II (the next eight chapters) presents the most general results available about the existence and uniqueness of algebraic multiplicities for real non-analytic operator matrices and families, and Part III (last chapter) transfers these results from linear to nonlinear analysis. The text is as self-contained as possible and suitable for students at the advanced undergraduate or... more...
Methods of Spectral Analysis in Mathematical Physicsby D. Alpay; J. Arazy
Springer 2008; US$ 209.00The volume contains the proceedings of the OTAMP 2006 (Operator Theory, Analysis and Mathematical Physics) conference held at Lund University in June 2006. The conference was devoted to the methods of analysis and operator theory in modern mathematical physics. The following special sessions were organized during the conference: Spectral analysis of SchrAdinger operators; Jacobi and CMV matrices and orthogonal polynomials; Quasi-periodic and random SchrAdinger operators; Quantum graphs. more...
Intermediate Spectral Theory and Quantum Dynamicsby Gerald Kaiser; C. Berenstein
Springer 2008; US$ 74.95The spectral theory of linear operators plays a key role in the mathematical formulation of quantum theory. This textbook offers a comprehensible introduction to the spectral theory of (unbounded) self-adjoint operators and its application in quantum dynamics. It is intended for graduate students and researchers interested in mathematical physics. more...
Szego's Theorem and Its Descendantsby Barry Simon
Princeton University Press 2010; US$ 110.00This book presents a comprehensive overview of the sum rule approach to spectral analysis of orthogonal polynomials, which derives from Gábor Szego's classic 1915 theorem and its 1920 extension. Barry Simon emphasizes necessary and sufficient conditions, and provides mathematical background that until now has been available only in journals. Topics include background from the theory of meromorphic functions on hyperelliptic surfaces and the study of covering maps of the Riemann sphere with a finite number of slits removed. This allows for the first book-length treatment of orthogonal polynomials for measures supported on a finite number of intervals on the real line. In addition to the Szego and Killip-Simon theorems for orthogonal... more...
Dirac Operators and Spectral Geometryby Giampiero Esposito
Cambridge University Press 1998; US$ 51.00A clear, concise and up-to-date introduction to the theory of the Dirac operator and its wide range of applications in theoretical physics for graduate students and researchers. more...
