Abstract Let $L^2({{\mathbb{D}}})$ be the space of measurable square-summable functions on the unit disk. Let $L^2_a({{\mathbb{D}}})$ be the Bergman space, that is, the (closed) subspace of analytic functions in $L^2({{\mathbb{D}}})$. $P_+$ stays for the orthogonal projection going from $L^2({{\mathbb{D}}})$ to $L^2_a({{\mathbb{D}}})$. For a function $\varphi \in L^\infty ({{\mathbb{D}}})$, the Toeplitz operator $T_\varphi : L^2_a({{\mathbb{D}}})\to L^2_a({{\mathbb{D}}})$ is defined as $$\begin{align*} & T_\varphi f=P_+\varphi f, \quad f\in L^2_a({{\mathbb{D}}}). \end{align*}$$The main result of this article are spectral asymptotics for singular (or eigen-) values of compact Toeplitz operators with logarithmically decaying symbols, that is, $$\begin{align*} & \varphi(z)=\varphi_1(e^{i\theta})\, (1+\log(1/(1-r)))^{-\gamma},\quad \gamma>0, \end{align*}$$where $z=re^{i\theta }$ and $\varphi _1$ is a continuous (or piece-wise continuous) function on the unit circle. The result is applied to the spectral analysis of banded (including Jacobi) matrices.

AbstractSoft gamma-ray repeaters (SGRs) and anomalous X-ray pulsars (AXPs) are peculiar X-ray sources which are believed to be magnetars: ultra-magnetized neutron stars which emission is dominated by surface fields (often in excess of 1E14 G, i.e. well above the QED threshold).Spectral analysis is an important tool in magnetar astrophysics since it can provide key information on the emission mechanisms. The first attempts at modelling the persistent (i.e. outside bursts) soft X-ray (¡10 keV) spectra of AXPs proved that a model consisting of a blackbody (kT 0.3-0.6 keV) plus a power-law (photon index 2-4) could successfully reproduce the observed emission. Moreover, INTEGRAL observations have shown that, while in quiescence, magnetars emit substantial persistent radiation also at higher energies, up to a few hundreds of keV. However, a convincing physical interpretation of the various spectral components is still missing.In this talk I will focus on the interpretation of magnetar spectral properties during quiescence. I will summarise the present status of the art and the currents attempts to model the broadband persistent emission of magnetars (from IR to hard Xrays) within a self consistent, physical scenario.

For the ground state energy of the spin-boson (SB) model, we give a new upper bound in the case with infrared singularity condition (i.e. without infrared cutoff), and a new lower bound in the case of massless bosons with infrared regularity condition. We first investigate spectral properties of the Wigner–Weisskopf (WW) model, and apply them to SB model to achieve our purpose. Then, as an extra result of the spectral analysis for WW model, we show that a non-perturbative ground state appears, and its ground state energy is so low that we cannot conjecture it by using the regular perturbation theory.

In this paper, we study some spectral properties of the one-dimensional Hahn-Dirac boundary-value problem, such as formally self-adjointness, the case that the eigenvalues are real, orthogonality of eigenfunctions, Greens function, the existence of a countable sequence of eigenvalues, eigenfunctions forming an orthonormal basis of L2w,q ((w0. a): E).
