Eigenvalues for perturbed periodic Jacobi matrices by the Wigner-von Neumann approach
Abstract
The Wigner-von Neumann method, which was previously used for perturbing continuous Schr\"{o}dinger operators, is here applied to their discrete counterparts. In particular, we consider perturbations of arbitrary $T$-periodic Jacobi matrices. The asymptotic behaviour of the subordinate solutions is investigated, as too are their initial components, together giving a general technique for embedding eigenvalues, $\lambda$, into the operator's absolutely continuous spectrum. Introducing a new rational function, $C(\lambda;T)$, related to the periodic Jacobi matrices, we describe the elements of the a.c. spectrum for which this construction does not work (zeros of $C(\lambda;T)$); in particular showing that there are only finitely many of them.
