This paper deals with the structure of the spectrum of infinite dimensional Hamiltonian operators.It is shown that the spectrum,the union of the point spectrum and residual spectrum,and the continuous spectrum are all symmetric with respect to the imaginary axis of the complex plane. Moreover,it is proved that the residual spectrum does not contain any pair of points symmetric with respect to the imaginary axis;and a complete characterization of the residual spectrum in terms of the point spectrum is then given.As applications of these structure results,we obtain several necessary and sufficient conditions for the residual spectrum of a class of infinite dimensional Hamiltonian operators to be empty.
In this paper, by using characterization of the point spectrum of the upper triangular infinite dimensional Hamiltonian operator H, a necessary and sufficient condition is obtained on the symmetry of σP(A) and σ1/P(-A^*) with respect to the imaginary axis. Then the symmetry of the point spectrum of H is given, and several examples are presented to illustrate the results.
The properties of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the infinite dimensional Hamiltonian operators are studied, and the sufficient conditions of the completeness in the sense of Cauchy principal value of the eigenfunction systems of the infinite dimensional Hamiltonian operators are given. In the end, concrete examples are constructed to justify the effectiveness of the criterion.
