Note (see link) that "resolvent" can mean many different things, depending on the context.

Thanks, however I want to learn about its application in quantum mechanics. The books I read so far have only poor details about it. if Ill ask mathematicians about it, Ill get symbols that I wouldnt understand ;-)

Do you mean the complement to the spectrum?? Can you tell us what you mean with resolvent?
