Lect. Notes. 8, 109-149 (1995).

Summary: A review of the general theory of selfadjoint operators of the form \(A+ \alpha B\), where \(B\) is rank one is presented. Applications include proofs of localization for Schrödinger operators, results on inverse spectral theory, and examples of operators with singular continuous spectrum.
