Abstract

Let JJ and RR be anti-commuting fundamental symmetries in a Hilbert space H\mathfrak{H}. The operators JJ and RR can be interpreted as basis (generating) elements of the complex Clifford algebra Cl2(J,R):=span{I,J,R,iJR}{\mathcal C}l_2(J,R):={span}\{I, J, R, iJR\}. An arbitrary non-trivial fundamental symmetry from Cl2(J,R){\mathcal C}l_2(J,R) is determined by the formula Jα=α1J+α2R+α3iJRJ_{\vec{\alpha}}=\alpha_{1}J+\alpha_{2}R+\alpha_{3}iJR, where αS2{\vec{\alpha}}\in\mathbb{S}^2. Let SS be a symmetric operator that commutes with Cl2(J,R){\mathcal C}l_2(J,R). The purpose of this paper is to study the sets ΣJα\Sigma_{{J_{\vec{\alpha}}}} (αS2\forall{\vec{\alpha}}\in\mathbb{S}^2) of self-adjoint extensions of SS in Krein spaces generated by fundamental symmetries Jα{{J_{\vec{\alpha}}}} (Jα{{J_{\vec{\alpha}}}}-self-adjoint extensions). We show that the sets ΣJα\Sigma_{{J_{\vec{\alpha}}}} and ΣJβ\Sigma_{{J_{\vec{\beta}}}} are unitarily equivalent for different α,βS2{\vec{\alpha}}, {\vec{\beta}}\in\mathbb{S}^2 and describe in detail the structure of operators AΣJαA\in\Sigma_{{J_{\vec{\alpha}}}} with empty resolvent set.
