On Kippenhahn curves and higher-rank numerical ranges of some matrices

Natália Bebiano, Joáo da Providéncia, Ilya M. Spitkovsky

The higher rank numerical ranges of generic matrices are described in terms of the components of their Kippenhahn curves. Cases of tridiagonal (in particular, reciprocal) 2-periodi…

Kippenhahn curves of some tridiagonal matrices

Natália Bebiano, Joáo da Providéncia, Ilya M. Spitkovsky +1

Tridiagonal matrices with constant main diagonal and reciprocal pairs of off-diagonal entries are considered. Conditions for such matrices with sizes up to 6-by-6 to have elliptica…

Non self-adjoint operators with real spectra and extensions of quantum mechanics

N. Bebiano, J. da Providência

In this article, we review the general quantum mechanical setting associated to a non self-adjoint Hamiltonian with real spectrum. Spectral properties of the Hamiltonian of a simpl…

Inequalities in Rényi's quantum thermodynamics

Natália Bebiano, João da Providência, João Pinheiro da Providência

A theory of thermodynamics has been recently formulated and derived on the basis of Rényi entropy and its relative versions. In this framework, we define the concepts of partition…

Spectral analysis of a selected non self-adjoint Hamiltonian in an infinite dimensional Hilbert space

Natalia Bebiano, Joao da Providencia, Joao P. da Providencia

The so-called equation of motion method is useful to obtain the explicit form of the eigenvectors and eigenvalues of certain non self-adjoint bosonic Hamiltonians with real eigenva…

Direct and inverse spectral problems for a class of non-selfadjoint band matrices

Natalia Bebiano, Mikhail Tyaglov

The spectral properties of a class of band matrices are investigated. The reconstruction of matrices of this special class from given spectral data is also studied. Necessary and s…

Non Hermitian Operators with Real Spectrum in Quantum Mechanics

João da Providência, Natália Bebiano, João Pinheiro da Providência

Examples are given of non-Hermitian Hamiltonian operators which have a real spectrum. Some of the investigated operators are expressed in terms of the generators of the Weil-Heisen…
