We revise Krein's extension theory of positive symmetric operators. Our approach using factorization through an auxiliary Hilbert space has several advantages: it can be applied to non-densely defined transformations and it works in both…

We study self-adjoint extensions of a second order differential operator of Sturm-Liouville type on a graph. We relate self-adjointness of the operator to the existence of non-complete trajectories of the Hamiltonian vector field defined by…

Let ${\mathsf D}$ and ${\mathsf H}$ be the self-adjoint, one-dimensional Dirac and Schr\"odinger operators in $L^{2}(\mathbb{R};\mathbb{C}^{2})$ and $L^{2}(\mathbb{R};\mathbb{C})$ respectively. It is well known that, in absence of an…

A concrete formulation of the Lehmann-Maehly-Goerisch method for semi-definite self-adjoint operators with compact resolvent is considered. Precise rates of convergence are determined in terms of how well the trial spaces capture the…

We extend the operations of shorting and parallel addition from the cone of bounded nonnegative selfadjoint operators in a Hilbert space to the set of all nonnegative selfadjoint linear relations. New properties of these operations and…

In this note we give a concise review of the present state-of-art for the problem of self-adjoint realisations for the Dirac operator with a Coulomb-like singular scalar potential $V(\vec x)=\phi(\vec x) I_4$. We try to follow the…

We discuss the Hamiltonian for a nonrelativistic electron with spin in the presence of an abelian magnetic monopole and note that it is not self-adjoint in the lowest two angular momentum modes. We then use von Neumann's theory of…

In this work, we review two methods used to approach singular Hamiltonians in (2+1) dimensions. Both methods are based on the self-adjoint extension approach. It is very common to find singular Hamiltonians in quantum mechanics, especially…

We consider self-adjoint extensions of differential operators of the type $ (-\frac{d^2}{dr^2} + \frac{l(l+1)}{r^2})^3 $ on the real semi-axis for l=1,2 with two kinds of boundary conditions: first that nullify the value of a function and…

We consider Schr\"odinger operators on possibly noncompact Riemannian manifolds, acting on sections in vector bundles, with locally square integrable potentials whose negative part is in the underlying Kato class. Using path integral…

A new construction for the form sum of positive, selfadjoint operators is given in this paper. The situation is a bit more general, because our aim is to add positive, symmetric operators. With the help of the used method, some commutation…

We extend Krupnik's criterion of self-adjointness of the Cauchy singular integral operator to the case of finitely connected domains. The main aim of the paper is to present a new approach for proof of the criterion.

It is known that the momentum operator canonically conjugated to the position operator for a particle moving in some bounded interval of the line {(with Dirichlet boundary conditions) is not essentially self-adjoint}: it has a continuous…

For relatively form-compact perturbations of non-negative selfadjoint operators, we obtain an upper bound on the number of discrete eigenvalues in half-planes separated from the positive real axis. The bound is given in terms of a partial…

This is a series of 5 lectures around the common subject of the construction of self-adjoint extensions of symmetric operators and its applications to Quantum Physics. We will try to offer a brief account of some recent ideas in the theory…

The central problem we consider is the distribution of eigenvalues of closed linear operators which are not selfadjoint, with a focus on those operators which are obtained as perturbations of selfadjoint linear operators. Two methods are…

We consider an abstract sequence $\{A_n\}_{n=1}^\infty$ of closed symmetric operators on a separable Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. It is assumed that all $A_n$'s have equal deficiency indices $(k,k)$ and thus self-adjoint extensions…

This paper deals with the study of the two-dimensional Dirac operatorwith infinite mass boundary condition in a sector. We investigate the question ofself-adjointness depending on the aperture of the sector: when the sector is convexit is…

We consider the two-dimensional Dirac operator with Lorentz-scalar $\delta$-shell interactions on each edge of a star-graph. An orthogonal decomposition is performed which shows such an operator is unitarily equivalent to an orthogonal sum…
