Asymptotics of eigenvalues of variational elliptic problems with indefinite weight function

  • 1. Universite Paul Sabatier, Toulouse, France

Description

This paper is concerned with spectral theory of right non-definite elliptic boundary value problems, i.e., Au = lambdagu on OMEGA is contained in R/sup n/, with Dirichlet homogeneous boundary conditions, when g changes sign. Asymptotics are obtained for the eigen-values in two cases: 1) when OMEGA is bounded, and 2) when OMEGA is unbounded. In case 1, the usual Weyl-Courant estimate is generalized; in case 2, the de Wett-Mandl formula is extended for operators of Schroedinger type
