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.
