The variance of a bounded linear operator $a$ on a Hilbert space $H$ at a unit vector $h$ is defined by $D_h(a)=\|ah\|^2-|<ah,h>|^2$. We show that two operators $a$ and $b$ have the same variance at all vectors $h\in H$ if and only if there…

The differential expression $L_m=-\partial_x^2 +(m^2-1/4)x^{-2}$ defines a self-adjoint operator H_m on L^2(0;\infty) in a natural way when $m^2 \geq 1$. We study the dependence of H_m on the parameter m, show that it has a unique…
