Abstract

We consider a class of eigenvalue problems involving coefficients changing sign on the domain of interest. We describe the main spectral properties of these problems according to the features of the coefficients. Then, under some assumptions on the mesh, we explain how one can use classical finite element methods to approximate the spectrum as well as the eigenfunctions while avoiding spurious modes. We also prove localisation results of the eigenfunctions for certain sets of coefficients.
