Abstract

We introduce the concept of essential numerical range We(T) for unbounded Hilbert space operators T and study its fundamental properties including possible equivalent characterizations and perturbation results. Many of the properties known for the bounded case do not carry over to the unbounded case, and new interesting phenomena arise which we illustrate by some striking examples. A key feature of the essential numerical range We(T) is that it captures spectral pollution in a unified and minimal way when approximating T by projection methods or domain truncation methods for PDEs.
