We analyze a general class of difference operators containing a multi-well potential and a small parameter. We decouple the wells by introducing certain Dirichlet operators on regions containing only one potential well, and we treat the eigenvalue problem as a small perturbation of these comparison problems. We describe tunneling by a certain interaction matrix similar to the analysis for the Schrödinger operator, and estimate the remainder, which is exponentially small and roughly quadratic compared with the interaction matrix.

Consequences and applications of the Fock space representation theorem Daniela Novotn'a Department of Probability and Mathematical Statistics, Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, Charles University Abstract In this thesis, we deal with selected applications of the Fock space rep- resentation theorem. One of the most important is the covariance identity, which can yield in an estimation of the correlation function of a point process having Papangelou conditional intensity. We used this result to generalise some asymptotic results for Gibbs particle processes. Namely, in combina- tion with Stein's method, we derived bounds for the Wasserstein distance between the standard normal distribution and the distribution of an innova- tion of a Gibbs particle process. As an application, we present a central limit theorem for a functional of a Gibbs segment process with pair potential.

Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / We describe a reproduction procedure which, given a solution of the gl(m|n) Gaudin Bethe ansatz equation associated to a tensor product of polynomial modules, produces a family P of other solutions called the population. To a population we associate a rational pseudodifferential operator R and a superspace W of rational functions. We show that if at least one module is typical then the population P is canonically identified with the set of minimal factorizations of R and with the space of full superflags in W. We conjecture that the singular eigenvectors (up to rescaling) of all gl(m|n) Gaudin Hamiltonians are in a bijective correspondence with certain superspaces of rational functions. We establish a duality of the non-periodic Gaudin model associated with superalgebra gl(m|n) and the non-periodic Gaudin model associated with algebra gl(k). The Hamiltonians of the Gaudin models are given by expansions of a Berezinian of an (m+n) by (m+n) matrix in the case of gl(m|n) and of a column determinant of a k by k matrix in the case of gl(k). We obtain our results by proving Capelli type identities for both cases and comparing the results. We study solutions of the Bethe ansatz equations of the non-homogeneous periodic XXX model associated to super Yangian Y(gl(m|n)). To a solution we associate a rational difference operator D and a superspace of rational functions W. We show that the set of complete factorizations of D is in canonical bijection with the variety of superflags in W and that each generic superflag defines a solution of the Bethe ansatz equation. We also give the analogous statements for the quasi-periodic supersymmetric spin chains.

We analyze the asymptotic behavior in the limit epsilon to zero for a wide class of difference operators H_epsilon = T_epsilon + V_epsilon with underlying multi-well potential. They act on the square summable functions on the lattice (epsilon Z)^d.<br> We start showing the validity of an harmonic approximation and construct WKB-solutions at the wells. Then we construct a Finslerian distance d induced by H and show that short integral curves are geodesics and d gives the rate for the exponential decay of Dirichlet eigenfunctions. In terms of this distance, we give sharp estimates for the interaction between the wells and construct the interaction matrix. / Wir analysieren das asymptotische Verhalten im Grenzwert epsilon gegen null von einer weiten Klasse von Differenzen operatoren H_epsilon = T_epsilon + V_epsilon mit unterliegendem Potential. Sie wirken auf die quadrat-summierbaren Funktionen auf dem Gitter (epsilon Z)^d.<br> Zunächst zeigen wir die Gültigkeit einer harmonischen Approximation und konstruieren WKB-Lösungen an den Töpfen. Dann konstruieren wir eine Finslersche Abstandsfunktion d, die durch H induziert wird und zeigen, daß kurze Integralkurven Geodäten sind und daß d die Rate des exponentiellen Abfallverhaltens von Dirichlet-Eigenfunktionen beschreibt. Bezügliche dieses Abstands geben wir scharfe Abschätzungen für die Wechselwirkung zwischen den Töpfen und konstruieren die Wechselwirkungs-Matrix.

Tato doktorská práce se zabývá zlomkovým kalkulem na diskrétních množinách, přesněji v rámci takzvaného (q,h)-kalkulu a jeho speciálního případu h-kalkulu. Nejprve jsou položeny základy teorie lineárních zlomkových diferenčních rovnic v (q,h)-kalkulu. Jsou diskutovány některé jejich základní vlastnosti, jako např. existence, jednoznačnost a struktura řešení, a je zavedena diskrétní analogie Mittag-Lefflerovy funkce jako vlastní funkce operátoru zlomkové diference. Dále je v rámci h-kalkulu provedena kvalitativní analýza skalární a vektorové testovací zlomkové diferenční rovnice. Výsledky analýzy stability a asymptotických vlastností umožňují vymezit souvislosti s jinými matematickými disciplínami, např. spojitým zlomkovým kalkulem, Volterrovými diferenčními rovnicemi a numerickou analýzou. Nakonec je nastíněno možné rozšíření zlomkového kalkulu na obecnější časové škály.
