Analysis of the Singular Spectrum for General Perturbations

Constanze Liaw, Eero Saksman, Sergei Treil

We investigate the behavior of the singular spectrum of self-adjoint operators under families of Hermitian perturbations, even non-compact ones. Under mild assumptions we have the…

Spectral Properties of Singular Sturm-Liouville Operators via Boundary Triples and Perturbation Theory

Dale Frymark, Constanze Liaw

We apply both the theory of boundary triples and perturbation theory to the setting of semi-bounded Sturm-Liouville operators with two limit-circle endpoints. For general boundary…
