Abstract

We consider positive perturbations A = B + C of resolvent positive operators B by positive operators C : D(A) → X and in particular study their spectral properties. We characterize the spectral bound of A, s(A), in terms of the resolvent outputs F(λ) = C(λ - B)-1 and derive conditions for s(A) to be an eigenvalue of A and a (first order) pole of the resolvent of A. On our way we show that the spectral radii of a completely monotonie operator family form a superconvex function. Our results will be used in forthcoming publications to study the spectral and large-time properties of positive operator semigroups.
