Abstract

We consider the problem of approximation of eigenvalues of a self-adjoint operator J defined by a Jacobi matrix in the Hilbert space l 2(ℕ) by eigenvalues of principal finite submatrices of an infinite Jacobi matrix that defines this operator. We assume the operator J is bounded from below with compact resolvent. In our research we estimate the asymptotics (with n → ∞) of the joint error of approximation for the eigenvalues, numbered from 1 to N; of J by the eigenvalues of the finite submatrix J n of order n × n; where N = max{k ∈ ℕ: krn} and r ∈ (0; 1) is arbitrary chosen. We apply this result to obtain an asymptotics for the eigenvalues of J. The method applied in this research is based on Volkmer’s results included in [23].
