In this paper, we study the Orr–Sommerfeld problem on a finite interval. It is shown that the eigenfunctions and associated functions form a Bari basis in a suitable Hilbert space if the unperturbed velocity profile u is sufficiently smooth. To this end, the Orr–Sommerfeld problem is considered as a bounded perturbation of a certain self-adjoint spectral problem.

The paper deals with linear pencils N − λP of ordinary differential operators on a finite interval with λ-dependent boundary conditions. Three different problems of this form arising in elasticity and hydrodynamics are considered. So-called linearization pairs (W, T) are constructed for the problems in question. More precisely, functional spaces W densely embedded in L2 and linear operators T acting in W are constructed such that the eigenvalues and the eigen- and associated functions of T coincide with those of the original problems. The spectral properties of the linearized operators T are studied. In particular, it is proved that the eigen- and associated functions of all linearizations (and hence of the corresponding original problems) form Riesz bases in the spaces W and in other spaces which are obtained by interpolation between D(T) and W.

AbstractIn this paper, we study some local spectral properties of operators having form JTJ, where J is a conjugation on a Hilbert space H and $$T\in L(H)$$ T ∈ L ( H ) . We also study the relationship between the quasi-nilpotent part of the adjoint $$T^*$$ T ∗ and the analytic core K(T) in the case of decomposable complex symmetric operators. In the last part we consider Weyl type theorems for triangular operator matrices for which one of the entries has form JTJ, or has form $$JT^*J$$ J T ∗ J . The theory is exemplified in some concrete cases.

AbstractEigenvalue problems for selfadjoint quadratic operator polynomials L(λ) = Iλ2 + Bλ+ C on a Hilbert space H are considered where B, C∈ℒ(H), C >0, and |B| ≥ kI + k-l C for some k >0. It is shown that the spectrum of L(λ) is real. The distribution of eigenvalues on the real line and other spectral properties are also discussed. The arguments rely on the well-known theory of (weakly) hyperbolic operator polynomials.

Non-selfadjoint Sturm-Liouville operators on a finite interval with nonseparated boundary conditions are studied. We establish properties of the spectral characteristics and investigate an inverse problem of recovering the operators from their spectral data. For this inverse problem we prove a uniqueness theorem and provide a procedure for constructing the solution.

In the present paper eigenvalue problems for non-selfadjoint linear differential operators smoothly dependent on a vector of real parameters are considered. Bifurcation of eigenvalues along smooth curves in the parameter space is studied. The case of multipleeigen value with Keldysh chain of arbitrary length is considered. Explicit expressions describing bifurcation of eigen-values are found. The obtained formulae use eigenfunctions and associated functions of the adjoint eigenvalue problems as well as the derivatives of the differential operator taken at the initial point of the parameter space. These results are important for the stability theory, sensitivity analysis and structural optimization. As a mechanical application the extended Beck’s problem of stability of an elastic column under action of potential force and tangential follower force is considered and discussed in detail.

Based on a spectral problem raised by Barría and Halmos, a new class of Hardy-Hilbert space operators, containing the classical Toeplitz operators, is introduced, and some of their Toeplitz-like algebraic and operator-theoretic properties are studied and explored.
