Response Calculus for Spectral Simplicity and Joint Eigenvalue Densities

We develop a perturbative response calculus for spectral problems obtained by changing the speed measure of a fixed symmetric energy form in a Gaussian environment. If Cameron--Martin translation acts by $\mu_{x+f}=e^{\kappa f}\mu_x$, unitary transport identifies the varying $L^2$ spaces and produces a common-domain analytic family. For a positive eigenvalue $\Lambda$, the first-order operator is $-\kappa\Lambda$ times the compression of multiplication by $f$ to the $\Lambda$-eigenspace; its eigenvalues are the derivatives of the analytic branches issuing from $\Lambda$. A countable separation condition and finite-dimensional Gaussian disintegration then give almost-sure simplicity; a response-transversality condition and the inverse function theorem give joint densities for all finite vectors of positive ordered eigenvalues. We verify these hypotheses for every $0<\gamma<2$ in two models: Dirichlet Liouville Brownian motion on an arbitrary bounded connected planar domain, and the Liouville--Cauchy operator on the circle. In the first model the whole spectrum is almost surely simple; in the second the constants form the deterministic zero mode and the positive spectrum is almost surely simple. Transversality follows from a local eigenfunction-square identity in the Brownian case and its nonlocal jump-form analogue in the Cauchy case.

Spectral Simplicity and Joint Eigenvalue Densities for a Non-Gaussian Brownian Time Change

We study a Brownian time change on the unit square whose speed measure is constructed from a Dirichlet eigenfunction expansion with independent non-Gaussian coefficients. For $0<\gamma<\sqrt2$, the measure is obtained by a second-moment martingale argument. Finite coefficient translations induce coherent exponential tilts of the speed measure, and conditioning on the complementary coefficients gives positive Lebesgue densities on every finite-dimensional orbit. Unitary transport along these orbits gives a common-domain analytic family and explicit first-order cluster derivatives. A first-order splitting argument proves almost-sure simplicity, while the local eigenfunction-square identity and a Vandermonde argument give joint densities for all finite vectors of ordered positive eigenvalues.
