resolvent
In mathematics, particularly in functional analysis and operator theory, a resolvent is a type of function that can be applied to an operator in order to analyze its properties. In particular, if A is an operator and λ is a complex number, then the resolvent of A at λ is defined by the operator (A - λI)^-1, whenever this expression makes sense. The set of all λ for which this expression does make sense is called the resolvent set of A. The term "resolvent" is also used in the context of solving differential equations by series.
