Description:
This book is intended to serve both as an introduction and a reference to spectral and inverse spectral theory of Jacobi operators (i.e., second order symmetric difference operators) and applications of these theories to the Toda and Kac-van Moerbeke hierarchy. Starting from second order difference equations we move on to self-adjoint operators and develop discrete Weyl-Titchmarsh-Kodaira theory, covering all classical aspects like Weyl m-functions, spectral functions, the moment problem, inverse spectral theory, and uniqueness results.

In semi-classical analysis many of the basic results involve asymptotic expansions in which the terms can by computed by symbolic techniques and the focus of these lecture notes will be the 'symbol calculus' that this creates.
