Abstract: We study the solvability complexity index (SCI) for unbounded selfadjoint operators on separable Hilbert spaces and perturbations thereof. In particular, we show that if the extended essential spectrum of a selfadjoint operator is convex, then the SCI for computing its spectrum is equal to 1. This result is then extended to relatively compact perturbations of such operators and applied to Schr"{o}dinger operators with compactly supported (complex valued) potentials to obtain SCI=1 in this case, as well.

Review text

The paper is focused on the study of the solvability complexity index (SCI) for unbounded selfadjoint operators defined on separable Hilbert spaces. The author proves that, for a selfadjoint operator whose extended essential spectrum is convex, the SCI for computing its spectrum is equal to \(1\). The obtained results are then generalized to relatively compact perturbations of such operators, and they are finally applied to Schrödinger operators with potentials that decay at infinity.
