Abstract
In the context of the instantaneous normal mode approach, the spectrum of the Hessian of Hamiltonian is a key quantity to describe a liquids behaviour. The determination of the spectrum represents a major task for theoretical studies, and has recently been addressed in various works. In this work a new approach for the analytic computation of the Hessian spectrum is presented. The one-dimensional case for a system of particles interacting via a purely repulsive potential at low density is analysed in detail and, also in the localized sector, the spectrum is computed exactly. Finally the possible extensions of the method are discussed, together with a comparison with different approaches to the problem.
