Abstract

We consider the spectrum of the family of one-dimensional self-adjoint operators$-{\mathrm{d}}^2/{\mathrm{d}}t^2+(t-\zeta)^2$, $\zeta\in \mathbb{R}$ on the half-line with Neumann boundary condition.It is well known that the first eigenvalue $\mu(\zeta)$ of this family of harmonic oscillators has a unique minimum when $\zeta\in\mathbb{R}$.This paper is devoted to the accurate computations of this minimum $\Theta_{0}$ and $\Phi(0)$ where $\Phi$ is the associated positive normalized eigenfunction.We propose an algorithm based on finite element method to determine this minimum and we give a sharp estimate of the numerical accuracy. We compare these results with a finite element method.

Highlights

  • Before motivating our analysis, we first define the parameters Θ0 and Φ(0)

  • Thanks to the model situation given by the analysis of the angular sector, we are able to determine the asymptotic expansion of the low-lying eigenmodes of the Schrodinger operator on curvilinear polygons: Proposition 2.4

  • √ For non constant magnetic field, the low-lying eigenvalues admit an asymptotic expansion in power of h

Summary

Introduction

We first define the parameters Θ0 and Φ(0). We consider the operator −d2/dt2 + (t − ζ) on (0, +∞). In Theorem 3.3, we prove H1-estimate between the normalized eigenfunction Φ associated with Θ0 for the operator H(ζ0) and a normalized quasi-mode for H(ζ). We implement this method in Subsection 4.5 and obtain an accurate approximation of Θ0 and Φ(0): Theorem 1.2. From a numerical point of view, we mention papers [4, 3] which deal with the numerical computations for the bottom of the spectrum of −d2/dt2 + (t − ζ) on a symmetric interval using a finite difference method
