Abstract

We consider the Hill operator Ly=y+v(x)y,0xπ, Ly = - y^{\prime \prime} + v(x)y, \quad 0 \leq x \leq \pi, subject to periodic or antiperiodic boundary conditions (bcbc) with potentials of the form v(x)=ae2irx+be2isx,a,b0,r,sN,rs. v(x) = a e^{-2irx} + b e^{2isx}, \quad a, b \neq 0, r,s \in \mathbb{N}, r\neq s. It is shown that the system of root functions does not contain a basis in L2([0,π],C)L^2 ([0,\pi], \mathbb{C}) if bcbc are periodic or if bcbc are antiperiodic and r,sr, s are odd or r=1r=1 and s3.s \geq 3.
