Multiple completeness of root vectors of polynomial operator pencils corresponding to \(boundaryvalue\) problems on the semiaxis (Q788252)

Let \(P(\lambda)\) be an operator pencil of the form \(P(\lambda)=\lambda^ nA_ 0+\lambda^{n-1}A_ 1+...+A_ n+A^ n\), where \(A_ 0,...,A_ n\), A are linear operators in a separable Hilbert space H. It is supposed that A is a positively defined self-adjoint operator and \(A_ jA^{- j}(j=1,...,n)\) has a bounded closure. Sufficient conditions are given for the existence of a unique m-regular solution to the following boundary value problem (in the space \(L^ 2(0,+\infty;H)):\) \[ P(d/dt)u=f,\quad u^{(j)}(+0)=\phi_ j\in D(A^{n-j-1/2}),\quad j=0,...,m-1. \] This leads to results on m-fold completeness of a part of eigen- and root vectors of \(P(\lambda)\) having the eigenvalues in the left half-plane.
