Separation of variables in perturbed cylinders

We study the Laplace operator subject to Dirichlet boundary conditions in a two-dimensional domain that is one-to-one mapped onto a cylinder (rectangle or infinite strip). As a result of this transformation the original eigenvalue problem is reduced to an equivalent problem for an operator with variable coefficients. Taking advantage of the simple geometry we separate variables by means of the Fourier decomposition method. The ODE system obtained in this way is then solved numerically yielding the eigenvalues of the operator. The same approach allows us to find complex resonances arising in some non-compact domains. We discuss numerical examples related to quantum waveguide problems.

Bounds on complex eigenvalues and resonances

We obtain bounds on the complex eigenvalues of non-self-adjoint Schrödinger operators with complex potentials, and also on the complex resonances of self-adjoint Schrödinger operators. Our bounds are compared with numerical results, and are seen to provide useful information.

On eigenfunction approximations for typical non-self-adjoint Schroedinger operators

We construct efficient approximations for the eigenfunctions of non-self-adjoint Schroedinger operators in one dimension. The same ideas also apply to the study of resonances of self-adjoint Schroedinger operators which have dilation analytic potentials. In spite of the fact that such eigenfunctions can have surprisingly complicated structures with multiple local maxima, we show that a suitable adaptation of the JWKB method is able to provide accurate lobal approximations to them.

Spectral Instability for Some Schroedinger Operators

We define the concept of instability index of an isolated eigenvalue of a non-self-adjoint operator, and prove some of its general properties. We also describe a stable procedure for computing this index for Schroedinger operators in one dimension, and apply it to the complex resonances of a typical operator with a dilation analytic potential.
