## 1. Introduction

It is well known that spectral analysis of linear operators [1] is an important topic in functional analysis. For example, the matrix eigenvalue in linear algebra and eigenvalue problems for differential equation have been discussed emphatically. Two major reasons are as follows. Firstly, spectral analysis arises from vibration frequency problems and the stability theory of system. Secondly, spectral analysis comes from the need of discussing the structure of the operator and solving the corresponding equation by using the eigenvalue and spectral theorem. Also, spectral analysis can be used to study the structure of the solution for homogeneous or nonhomogeneous differential system and the normalized form of matrix which can be obtained clearly by matrix eigenvalues.So far, the spectral decomposition method [2] has become a central topic in the theory of spectral analysis of linear operators. This method has been successfully applied in Hilbert space and perfect spectral decomposition theorem [3]. In recent years, the spectral decomposition method has been developed into spectral theorems of spectral operators and decomposable operators in Banach space [4, 5].To our knowledge, reproducing kernel space has been applied in many fields, such as linear systems [6–8], nonlinear systems [9–11], operator equation, stochastic processes, wavelet transform, signal analysis, and pattern recognition [12–17]. Since the reproducing kernel space is a Hilbert space, this paper will apply the theory of spectral analysis for linear operator in the reproducing kernel space W
2
m
(
D
) and derive some useful conclusions.The paper is organized as follows. In Section2, we introduce some related definitions for the eigenvalue of the bounded linear operator L in the reproducing kernel space W
2
m
(
D
). In Section 3, the regular point and the spectral point of bounded linear operator L in W
2
m
(
D
) are given. In Section 4, we show spectral analysis of the bounded linear operator L and also establish several theorems. Section 5 ends this paper with a brief conclusion.


## 2. Related Definitions

Definition 1.
LetD be an abstract set, W
2
m
(
D
) the reproducing kernel space, and B
L
[
W
2
m
(
D
)
→
W
2
n
(
D
)
] the bounded linear operator space. ∀
L
∈
B
L
[
W
2
m
(
D
)
→
W
2
n
(
D
)
] with m
,
n
∈
N, if there exists nonvanishing vector u
∈
W
2
m
(
D
), such that
(1)
L
u
=
λ
u
or
(
λ
I
-
L
)
u
=
0
.
Then λ is called an eigenvalue of L and u is called the eigenvector of L according to λ, where I denotes the identity operator.Definition 2.
∀
L
∈
B
L
[
W
2
m
(
D
)
→
W
2
n
(
D
)
] and all eigenvectors and zero vector of L compose the eigenvector space which is denoted by E
λ.Obviously,E
λ is a linear closed subspace of W
2
m
(
D
).Definition 3.
Denote the dimension ofE
λ by dim
⁡
⁡
E
λ; it is called the multiplicity of eigenvalue λ. That is, dim
⁡
⁡
E
λ is the number of vectors of maximum linear independence.Example 4.
LetK
(
s
,
t
) be a binary function on D
=
{
(
s
,
t
)
∣
a
≤
s
≤
b
,
a
≤
t
≤
b
}, L

B
L
[
W

(

)
], m
,
n
∈
N with

L

=
∫

K
(
s
,
t
)
u
(
t
)
d

,
u
∈
W
2
m
(

)
;
then λ is the eigenvalue of L if and only if the following integral equation has nonzero solution:
(3)
λ
u
(
s
)
-
∫
a
b
K
(
s
,
t
)
u
(
t
)
d
t
=
0
.
If K
(
s
,
t
)
=
∑
i
=
1
n
f
i
(
s
)
g
i
(
t
), {
f
i
}
i
=
1
n is a linear independence vector system, then (3) can be converted into the equivalent equation
(4)
λ
u
(
s
)
-
∑
i
=
1
n
f
i
(
s
)
∫
a
b
g
i
(
t
)
u
(
t
)
d
t
=
0
.
Thus we have the following results.(a)
Ifλ
=
0, then (4) has nonzero solution if and only if u
∈
W
2
m
(
D
) and ∫
a
b
g
i
(
t
)
u
(
t
)
d
t
=
0, i
=
1,2
,
…
,
n. It follows that, for the eigenvalue λ
=
0 of L, the eigenvector space is infinite-dimensional.
(b)
Ifλ
≠
0, then the solution of (4) can be denoted by
(5)
u
(
s
)
=
∑
i
=
1
n
C
i
f
i
(
s
)
,
where C
i (i
=
1,2
,
…
,
n) are constants.Combine (5) with (4) and, in view of the linear independence of {
f
i
}
i
=
1
n in (5), C
i must satisfy the following linear equation system:
(6)
∑
j
=
1
n
C
j
∫
a
b
g
i
(
t
)
f
j
(
t
)
d
t
=
λ
C
i
,
i
=
1,2
,
…
,
n
.Summing up the above results, we can see that eigenvalues of (3) and (5) are equivalent, where C
i (i
=
1,2
,
…
,
n) are undetermined coefficients. In addition, in order to solve the eigenvector, we just need to solve C
i (i
=
1,2
,
…
,
n) in (5).


## 3. Regular Point and Spectral Point

In Definitions1–3, we introduce the eigenvalue, eigenvector, eigenvector space, and dim
⁡
⁡
E
λ of L for the homogeneous equation (1). However, for many problems in mathematics and physics, we just need to solve the following nonhomogeneous equation:
(7)
(
λ
I
-
L
)
u
=
f
,
where L is a given operator, f is a given vector, and u is an unknown vector. In order to discuss this problem, we need to introduce the following definitions and theorems.Definition 5.
LetL
∈
B
L
[
W
2
m
(
D
)
→
W
2
n
(
D
)
], m
,
n
∈
N, D
(
L
)
⊆
W
2
m
(
D
), and R
(
L
)
⊆
W
2
n
(
D
), where D
(
L
) denotes the domain of L and R
(
L
) denotes the range of values of L. If the inverse operator L
-
1 of L exists and is linearly bounded, then L is called a regular operator.LetL be a linear operator; D
(
L
)
⊆
W
2
m
(
D
) and R
(
L
)
⊆
W
2
n
(
D
); if L
-
1 exists, then L
-
1
L
=
I
D
(
L
) and L
L
-
1
=
I
R
(
L
), where I
D
(
L
) and I
R
(
L
) are, respectively, identity operators of subspace D
(
L
) and R
(
L
). Inversely, if there exists a linear operator C
:
W
2
n
(
D
)
→
W
2
m
(
D
), such that C
L
=
I
D
(
L
) and L
C
=
I
D
(
C
), then L
-
1 exists and I
-
1
=
C. In fact, ∀
u
1
,
u
2
∈
D
(
L
); if L
u
1
=
L
u
2, then u
1
=
C
L
u
1
=
C
L
u
2
=
u
2. Hence, L is invertible. Since L
C
=
I
D
(
C
), then ∀
v
∈
D
(
C
); we have u
=
C
v such that L
u
=
v. That is, D
(
C
)
⊆
R
(
L
).Summing up the above disscusion,R
(
L
)
=
D
(
C
). Hence, we have L
-
1
=
(
C
L
)
L
-
1
=
C
L
L
-
1
=
C. Particularly, when D
(
C
)
=
W
2
n
(
D
) and C is a bounded linear operator, we can derive the following results.Theorem 6.
LetL

L

m

m
(

], such that C
L
=
I
D
(
L
) and L
C
=
I
D
(
C
).Theorem 7.
LetL

L

n

* is also a regular operator and (
L

)
-

=
(

*.Proof.
SinceL

by taking conjugate on both sides of the above formulas, we obtain

In view of Theorem 6, we can see that L

*. The proof is complete.Definition 8.
LetD
(
L
)
⊆
W
2
m
(
D
), m
∈
N, λ
∈
C; C denotes the complex number field.(1)
λ
I
-
L is a regular operator, that is, λ
I
-
L is a one-to-one linear operator from D
(
L
) to W
2
m
(
D
). In addition, the inverse operator (
λ
I
-
L
)
-
1 is a linear bounded operator. Then λ is called a regular point of L. All regular points compose the regular set of L, which is denoted by ρ
(
L
).
(2)
Ifλ is not a regular point, then λ is called a spectral point of L. All spectral points compose the spectral set of L, which is denoted by σ
(
L
).In view of Definition8, we have ρ
(
L
)
⋃
σ
(
L
)
=
C. Then we have the following property results.Lemma 9.
LetL be a bounded linear operator in reproducing kernel space W
2
m
(
D
), m
∈
N; then λ is a regular point of L if and only if ∀
f
∈
W
2
m
(
D
), there exists a solution g of (
λ
I
-
L
)
g
=
f, which satisfies ∥
g
∥
≤
m
∥
f
∥, where m is a positive constant.Proof.
⇒ Since R
(
λ
I
-
L
)
=
W
2
m
(
D
), then ∀
f
∈
W
2
m
(
D
), ∃
g
∈
W
2
m
(
D
) such that (
λ
I
-
L
)
g
=
f. In addition, in view of the boundedness of (
λ
I
-
L
)
-
1 and the Cauchy-Schwartz inequality, we have
(10)
∥
g
∥
=
∥
(
λ
I
-
L
)
-
1
f
∥
≤
∥
(
λ
I
-
L
)
-
1
∥
∥
f
∥
.
Let m
=
∥
(
λ
I
-
L
)
-
1
∥
>
0; then ∥
g
∥
≤
m
∥
f
∥.
⇐ Since (
λ
I
-
L
)
g
=
f, we have R
(
λ
I
-
L
)
=
W
2
m
(
D
). Next, we will prove that λ
I
-
L is one-to-one. In fact, ∀
f
∈
W
2
m
(
D
); if (
λ
I
-
L
)
g
1
=
f, (
λ
I
-
L
)
g
2
=
f, then
(11)
(
λ
I
-
L
)
(
g
1
-
g
2
)
=
0
;
namely, the image of g
1
-
g
2 is 0. Hence, ∥
g
1
-
g
2
∥
≤
m
∥
0
∥; that is, g
1
=
g
2. Therefore, λ
I
-
L is one-to-one and (
λ
I
-
L
)
-
1 exists. Furthermore, since ∥
g
∥
≤
m
∥
f
∥, we have
(12)
∥
(
λ
I
-
L
)
-

f
∥
≤
m
∥
f
∥
;
that is,
(13)
∥
(
λ
I
-
L
)
-
1
∥
≤
m
.
Hence, (
λ
I
-
L
)
-
1 exists and is a bounded linear operator. Summing up the above, λ
I
-
L is a regular operator, where λ is a regular point of L.Lemma9 shows that ∀
f
∈
W
2
m
(
D
); when L is a continuous linear operator and λ is the regular point of L, (
λ
I
-
L
)
g
=
f has a unique solution g. Furthermore, the continuity of g depends on the right term. In other words, if {
f
i
}
i
=
1
n are column vectors and f
n
→
f, then g
n
→
g.Lemma 10.
LetL be a bounded linear operator in the reproducing kernel space W
2
m
(
D
), m
∈
N. If λ is not the eigenvalue of L and (
λ
I
-
L
)
g
1
=
(
λ
I
-
L
)
g
2, one has L
(
g
1
-
g
2
)
=
λ
(
g
1
-
g
2
), g
1
=
g
2. That is, λ
I
-
L is invertible.Proof.
Otherwise, the invertible operator can convert the nonvanishing vector to nonvanishing vector. Hence, there existsg
≠
0 such that (
λ
I
-
L
)
g
=
0. That is, λ is not the eigenvalue of L.
WhenW
2
m
(
D
) is a finite dimension space and λ is not the eigenvalue of L, we can derive that C
=
λ
I
-
L is an invertible mapping. Obviously, R
(
C
)
=
W
2
m
(
D
). In fact, let {
e
i
}
i
=
1
n be the basis of W
2
m
(
D
); then {
(
λ
I
-
L
)
e
i
}
i
=
1
n is a linear independent system in W
2
n
(
D
) and also a basis of W
2
n
(
D
). Therefore, R
(
L
)
=
W
2
n
(
D
). In view of the inverse operator Theorem, (
λ
I
-
L
)
-
1 is bounded. It follows that λ
∈
ρ
(
L
).
So, the proof of the theorem is complete.Lemma10 shows that regular point and spectral point are absolutely opposite for finite dimension normed spaces. That is, spectral point of L can only be an eigenvalue in finite dimension normed space. This is entirely consistent with the conclusion of the theory of linear algebra. But if W
2
m
(
D
) is an infinite-dimensional space and λ is not the eigenvalue of L, then λ may not be a regular point of L, so far as λ
I
-
L is not a map from W
2
m
(
D
) to W
2
n
(
D
).For example, let(14)
L
u
=
∫
a
b
u
(
t
)
d
t
,
u
∈
W
2
m
(
D
)
;
∀
λ
∈
C, ∫
a
b
u
(
t
)
d
t
=
λ
u
(
t
) has only zero solutions. Hence, L has not eigenvalue. That is, zero is not the eigenvalue. However, the range of values is all functions of the from ∫
a
b
u
(
t
)
d
t for (
0
I
-
L
). This shows that the spectral point is complex in infinite-dimensional space for the operator L.Now, we will classify the spectral set by three situations.(a)
Ifλ
I
-
L is not one-to-one, then λ is called point spectral of L; the set of point spectral is denoted by σ
p
(
L
).
(b)
Ifλ
I
-
L is one-to-one and R
(
λ
I
-
L
) is dense in W
2
m
(
D
), then λ is called continuous spectral of L; the set of continuous spectral is denoted by σ
c
(
L
).
(c)
Ifλ
I
-
L is one-to-one and R
(
λ
I
-
L
) is not dense in W
2
m
(
D
), then λ is called residual spectral of L; the set of residual spectral is denoted by σ
r
(
L
).Obviously,σ
p
(
L
), σ
c
(
L
), and σ
r
(
L
) are mutually disjoint sets and σ
(
L
)
=
σ
p
(
L
)
∪
σ
c
(
L

∪
σ
r
(

Without loss of the generality, let ∥

then λ

r
(
L

(4) Sinceσ
(

σ

∈
σ

(5) Sinceσ

σ

a
(
L

⊆
σ

≠
∅, this shows that ∂

The proof is complete.

). Then we show some definitions and properties of the regular operator. The regular set and spectral set of bounded linear operator are also introduced. From the solvability of the equation, we show the spectral classification and give three conditions. Finally, we introduce the spectral analysis of the bounded linear operator L. It includes the definitions of spectral radius, nilpotent operator, approximate spectral point, and remainder spectral point. We also establish some property theorems of the bounded linear operator in the reproducing kernel space W
