This paper designates a subset
of the spectrum of a bounded self adjoint operator on a complex separable Hilbert
space. The set is called the singular spectrum and is distinguished by the fact that it
is a support for the singular part of the spectral measure of the operator. The
behavior of the singular spectrum, when the operator is perturbed by a
bounded self adjoint operator, is studied. The thrust of these results is to
give conditions sufficient for the perturbed operator to have no singular
spectrum.
