A Formula for Eigenvalues of Jacobi Matrices with a Reflection Symmetry

摘要

The spectral properties of two special classes of Jacobi operators are studied. For the first class represented by the 2M-dimensional real Jacobi matrices whose entries are symmetric with respect to the secondary diagonal, a new polynomial identity relating the eigenvalues of such matrices with their matrix entries is obtained. In the limit M→∞this identity induces some requirements, which should satisfy the scattering data of the resulting infinite-dimensional Jacobi operator in the half-line, of which super- and subdiagonal matrix elements are equal to -1.We obtain suchrequirements in the simplest case of the discrete Schr?dinger operator acting in l~2(N), which does not have bound and semibound states and whose potential has a compact support.
