Review text

[For the entire collection see Zbl 0733.00011.] The authors prove finiteness results for Schrödinger operators where the free Hamiltonian is a general linear second order operator in divergence form. E.g. they state that under certain assumptions the Schrödinger operator considered has only finite number of eigenvalues below \(\Sigma(P)\) (which is the infimum of the essential spectrum of the Hamiltonian), and give a sketch of the proof. They also state results on Schrödinger operators of atomic type, and furthermore prove the finiteness of the spectrum below \(\Sigma(P)\) for molecular type operators.
