Jussi Behrndt - Böcker

The Memoirs of the AMS is devoted to the publication of new research in all areas of pure and applied mathematics. The Memoirs is designed particularly to publish long papers of groups of cognate papers in book form, and is under the supervision of the Editorial Committee of the AMS journal Transactions of the American Mathematical Society. All papers are peer-reviewed.

This open access book presents a comprehensive survey of modern operator techniques for boundary value problems and spectral theory, employing abstract boundary mappings and Weyl functions. It includes self-contained treatments of the extension theory of symmetric operators and relations, spectral characterizations of selfadjoint operators in terms of the analytic properties of Weyl functions, form methods for semibounded operators, and functional analytic models for reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces. Further, it illustrates these abstract methods for various applications, including Sturm-Liouville operators, canonical systems of differential equations, and multidimensional Schrödinger operators, where the abstract Weyl function appears as either the classical Titchmarsh-Weyl coefficient or the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map. The book is a valuable reference text for researchers in the areas of differential equations, functional analysis, mathematical physics, and system theory.Moreover, thanks to its detailed exposition of the theory, it is also accessible and useful for advanced students and researchers in other branches of natural sciences and engineering.

Thepresentbookisamemorialvolumedevotedtoourfriend,colleagueandteacher Peter Jonas who passed away on July 18, 2007. It displays recent advances in modern operator theory in Hilbert and Krein spaces and contains a collection of original research papers written by participants of the 7th Workshop on Operator Theory in Krein Spaces and Spectral Analysis, which was held at the Technische Universit. at Berlin, Germany, December 13 to 16, 2007. The articles in this v- ume contain new results for problems close to the area of research of Peter Jonas: Spectralandperturbationproblemsfor operatorsininner productspaces,gener- ized Nevanlinna functions and de?nitizable functions, scattering theory, extension theory for symmetric operators, ?xed points, hyperbolic matrix polynomials, - ment problems, inde?nite spectral and Sturm-Liouville problems, and invariant subspace problems. It is a pleasure to acknowledge the substantial ?nancial support for the 7th Workshop on Operator Theory in Krein Spaces and Spectral Analysis received from the - Berlin Mathematical School (BMS) - Gesellschaft fur ..Angewandte Mathematik und Mechanik (GAMM) - International Mathematical Union, Commission on Development and Exchanges - Institute of Mathematics of the Technische Universit. at Berlin The Editors Peter Jonas (1941-2007) In Memoriam Peter Jonas (1941-2007) Jussi Behrndt, Karl-Heinz F.. orster and Carsten Trunk Peter Jonas was born on July 18, 1941, in Memel, now Klaipeda, which was at thattime the mosteasterntownofEastPrussia.After the war,PeterJonasmoved with his mother and grandmother to Blankenfelde - a small village near Berlin, where he lived until the end of his school education.

The present volume contains a collection of original research articles and expository contributions on recent developments in operator theory and its multifaceted applications. They cover a wide range of themes from the IWOTA 2010 conference held at the TU Berlin, Germany, including spectral theory, function spaces, mathematical system theory, evolution equations and semigroups, and differential and difference operators. The book encompasses new trends and various modern topics in operator theory, and serves as a useful source of information to mathematicians, scientists and engineers.
