Summary: We study the family of compact operators \(B_\alpha = V A_\alpha V\), \(\alpha > 0\) in \(\mathrm L^2(\mathbb R^d)\), \(d \geq 1\), where \(A_\alpha\) is the pseudo-differential operator with symbol \(a^{(\alpha)}( \xi) = a(\alpha \xi)\), and both functions \(a\) and \(V\) are real-valued and decay at infinity. We assume that \(a\) and \(V\) attain their maximal values \(A_0 > 0\), \(V_0 > 0\) only at \( \xi = 0\) and \(\mathbf x = 0\). We also assume that \[ \begin{aligned} a( \xi) = A_0 - \Psi_\gamma ( \xi) + o(| \xi|^\gamma), | \xi|\rightarrow 0, \\ V(\mathbf x)= V_0 - \Phi_\beta (\mathbf x) + o(|\mathbf x|^\beta), |\mathbf x|\rightarrow 0, \end{aligned} \] with some functions \(\Psi_\gamma ( \xi)>0\), \( \xi \neq 0\) and \(\Phi_\beta(\mathbf x) > 0\), \(\mathbf x\neq 0\) that are homogeneous of degree \(\gamma > 0\) and \(\beta > 0\) respectively. The main result is the following asymptotic formula for the positive eigenvalues \(\lambda_\alpha^{(n)}\) of the operator \(B_\alpha\) (arranged in descending order counting multiplicity) for fixed \(n\) and \(\alpha \rightarrow 0\): \[ \lambda_\alpha^{(n)} = A_0V_0^2 - \mu^{(n)} \alpha^\sigma + o(\alpha^\sigma), \; \alpha \rightarrow 0, \] where \(\sigma^{-1} = \gamma^{-1}+ \beta^{-1}\), and \(\mu^{(n)}\) are the eigenvalues (arranged in ascending order counting multiplicity) of the model operator \(T\) with symbol \(V_0^2\Psi_\gamma( \xi) + 2A_0 V_0 \Phi_\beta(\mathbf x)\).
