Suppose that the operator H + W is critical in Omega, and let phi be the corresponding Agmon ground state. We prove that if u is a generalized eigenfunction ofH satisfying vertical bar u vertical bar <= C-phi in Omega for some constant C > 0, then the corresponding eigenvalue is in the spectrum of H. The conclusion also holds true if for some K is an element of Omega the operator H admits a positive solution in (Omega) over bar = Omega \ K, and vertical bar u vertical bar <= C psi in (Omega) over bar for some constant C > 0, where psi is a positive solution of minimal growth in a neighborhood of infinity in Omega. Under natural assumptions, this result holds also in the context of infinite graphs, and Dirichlet forms.}, language = {en} } @article{BeckusEliaz2021, author = {Beckus, Siegfried and Eliaz, Latif}, title = {Eigenfunctions growth of R-limits on graphs}, series = {Journal of spectral theory / European Mathematical Society}, volume = {11}, journal = {Journal of spectral theory / European Mathematical Society}, number = {4}, publisher = {EMS Press, an imprint of the European Mathematical Society - EMS - Publishing House GmbH, Institut f{\"u}r Mathematik, Technische Universit{\"a}t}, address = {Berlin}, issn = {1664-039X}, doi = {10.4171/JST/389}, pages = {1895 -- 1933}, year = {2021}, abstract = {A characterization of the essential spectrum of Schrodinger operators on infinite graphs is derived involving the concept of R-limits. This concept, which was introduced previously for operators on N and Z(d) as "right-limits," captures the behaviour of the operator at infinity. For graphs with sub-exponential growth rate, we show that each point in sigma(ss)(H) corresponds to a bounded generalized eigenfunction of a corresponding R-limit of H. If, additionally, the graph is of uniform sub-exponential growth, also the converse inclusion holds.}, language = {en} }
