Ari Laptev - Böcker

The analysis of eigenvalues of Laplace and Schrödinger operators is an important and classical topic in mathematical physics with many applications. This book presents a thorough introduction to the area, suitable for masters and graduate students, and includes an ample amount of background material on the spectral theory of linear operators in Hilbert spaces and on Sobolev space theory. Of particular interest is a family of inequalities by Lieb and Thirring on eigenvalues of Schrödinger operators, which they used in their proof of stability of matter. The final part of this book is devoted to the active research on sharp constants in these inequalities and contains state-of-the-art results, serving as a reference for experts and as a starting point for further research.

The fundamental contributions of Professor Maz'ya to the theory of function spaces and especially Sobolev spaces are well known and often play a key role in the study of different aspects of the theory, which is demonstrated, in particular, by presented new results and reviews from world-recognized specialists. Sobolev type spaces, extensions, capacities, Sobolev inequalities, pseudo-Poincare inequalities, optimal Hardy-Sobolev-Maz'ya inequalities, Maz'ya's isocapacitary inequalities in a measure-metric space setting and many other actual topics are discussed.

Topics of this volume are close to scientific interests of Professor Maz'ya and use, directly or indirectly, the fundamental influential Maz'ya's works penetrating, in a sense, the theory of PDEs.In particular, recent advantages in the study of semilinear elliptic equations, stationary Navier-Stokes equations, the Stokes system in convex polyhedra, periodic scattering problems, problems with perturbed boundary at a conic point, singular perturbations arising in elliptic shells and other important problems in mathematical physics are presented.

This volume reflects the variety of areas where Maz'ya's results are fundamental, influential and/or pioneering. New advantages in such areas are presented by world-recognized experts and include, in particularly, Beurling's minimum principle, inverse hyperbolic problems, degenerate oblique derivative problems, the Lp-contractivity of the generated semigroups, some class of singular integral operators, general Cwikel-Lieb-Rozenblum and Lieb-Thirring inequalities,domains with rough boundaries, integral and supremum operators, finite rank Toeplitz operators, etc.

This volume is dedicated to the memory of Sergey Naboko (1950-2020). In addition to original research contributions covering the vast areas of interest of Sergey Naboko, it includes personal reminiscences and comments on the works and legacy of Sergey Naboko’s scientific achievements. Areas from complex analysis to operator theory, especially, spectral theory, are covered, and the papers will inspire current and future researchers in these areas.
