Product Description: Linear operators in Hilbert spaces play a fundamental role in the formulation of quantum theory. With complete proofs and numerous exercises, this book offers a self-contained presentation of the most important tools and methods from Hilbert space theory, with a particular focus on the spectral theory of self-adjoint operators...read more

Product Description: This is a collection of survey articles based on lectures presented at a colloquium and workshop in Geneva in 2003 to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the birth of Charles François Sturm. It aims at giving an overview of the development of Sturm-Liouville theory from its historical roots to present day research...read more

Product Description: The relevance of commutator methods in spectral and scattering theory has been known for a long time, and numerous interesting results have been ob­ tained by such methods. The reader may find a description and references in the books by Putnam [Pu], Reed-Simon [RS] and Baumgartel-Wollenberg [BW] for example...read more
