%0 Journal Article %T Negative spectra of elliptic operators %A Stanislav Molchanov %A Oleg Safronov %J Bulletin of Mathematical Sciences %@ 1664-3615 %D 2012 %I Springer %R 10.1007/s13373-012-0025-8 %X We establish different estimates for the sums of negative eigenvalues of elliptic operators. Our proofs are based on a property of the eigenvalue sums that might be viewed as a certain convexity with respect to the perturbation. %U http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s13373-012-0025-8
