Beschreibung
This book is intended to give a systematic presentation of perturba tion theory for linear operators. It is hoped that the book will be useful to students as well as to mature scientists, both in mathematics and in the physical sciences. Perturbation theory for linear operators is a collection of diversified results in the spectral theory of linear operators, unified more or less loosely by their common concern with the behavior of spectral properties when the operators undergo a small change. Since its creation by RAY LEIGH and SCHRODINGER, the theory has occupied an important place in applied mathematics; during the last decades, it has grown into a mathematical discipline with its own interest. The book aims at a mathe matical treatment of the subject, with due consideration of applications. The mathematical foundations of the theory belong to functional analysis. But since the book is partly intended for physical scientists, who might lack training in functional analysis, not even the elements of that subject are presupposed. The reader is assumed to have only a basic knowledge of linear algebra and real and complex analysis. The necessary tools in functional analysis, which are restricted to the most elementary part of the subject, are developed in the text as the need for them arises (Chapters I, III and parts of Chapters V, VI).
