Resumen de AF embeddings and the numerical computation of spectra in irrational rotation algebras

Nathanial P. Brown

  • A natural problem at the interface of operator theory and numerical analysis is that of finding a (finite dimensional) matrix whose eigenvalues approximate the spectrum of a given (infinite dimensional) operator. It is well-known that classical work of Pimsner and Voiculescu produces explicit matrix models for an interesting class of nontrivial examples (e.g., many discretized one-dimensional Schrödinger operators). In this paper, we observe that the spectra of their models (often) converge in the strongest possible sense - in the Hausdorff metric - and demonstrate that the rate of convergence is, in general, best possible
