The aim of this paper is to develop an approach to obtain self-adjoint extensions of symmetric operators acting on anti-dual pairs. The main advantage of such a result is that it can be applied for structures not carrying a Hilbert space…

In the present paper we investigate the set $\Sigma_J$ of all $J$-self-adjoint extensions of a symmetric operator $S$ with deficiency indices $<2,2>$ which commutes with a non-trivial fundamental symmetry $J$ of a Krein space…
Antilinear operators on a complex Hilbert space arise in various contexts in mathematical physics. In this paper, an analogue of the Weyl--von Neumann theorem for antilinear self-adjoint operators is proved, i.e. that an antilinear…
A well known tool in conventional (von Neumann) quantum mechanics is the self-adjoint extension technique for symmetric operators. It is used, e.g., for the construction of Dirac-Hermitian Hamiltonians with point-interaction potentials.…
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…
Given a conjugation (involution) $C$ on a Hilbert space, $C$-self-adjoint contractive extensions of a non-densely defined $C$-symmetric contraction are studied and parameterizations of all such extensions are obtained. As an application, a…
In this paper we study extensions of commuting tuples of symmetric and isometric operators to commuting tuples of self-adjoint and unitary operators. Some conditions which ensure the existence of such extensions are presented. A…
We describe the self-adjoint realizations of the operator $H:=-i\alpha\cdot \nabla + m\beta + \mathbb V(x)$, for $m\in\mathbb R $, and $\mathbb V(x)= |x|^{-1} ( \nu \mathbb{I}_4 +\mu \beta -i \lambda \alpha\cdot{x}/{|x|}\,\beta)$, for…
Distinguished selfadjoint extensions of operators which are not semibounded can be deduced from the positivity of the Schur Complement (as a quadratic form). In practical applications this amounts to proving a Hardy-like inequality.…
For the example of the infinitely deep well potential, we point out some paradoxes which are solved by a careful analysis of what is a truly self-adjoint operator. We then describe the self-adjoint extensions and their spectra for the…
We develop the concept of operators in Hilbert spaces which are similar to their adjoints via antiunitary operators, the latter being not necessarily involutive. We discuss extension theory, refined polar and singular-value decompositions,…
The classical Weyl-von Neumann theorem states that for any self-adjoint operator $A$ in a separable Hilbert space $\mathfrak H$ there exists a (non-unique) Hilbert-Schmidt operator $C = C^*$ such that the perturbed operator $A+C$ has purely…

In this work we explore the self-adjointness of the GUP-modified momentum and Hamiltonian operators over different domains. In particular, we utilize the theorem by von-Newmann for symmetric operators in order to determine whether the…
We present a new theorem concerning a sufficient condition for a symmetric operator acting in a complex Hilbert space to be essentially self-adjoint. By applying the theorem, we prove that the Dirac Maxwell Hamiltonian, which describes a…
Let $A$ be a $\nu$-vector of self-adjoint, pairwise commuting operators and $B$ a bounded operator of class $C^{n_0}(A)$. We prove a Taylor-like expansion of the commutator $[B,f(A)]$ for a large class of functions $f\colon\mathbm{R}^\nu…
The paper is devoted to a development of the theory of self-adjoint operators in Krein spaces (J-self-adjoint operators) involving some additional properties arising from the existence of C-symmetries. The main attention is paid to the…
$J$-self-adjoint extensions of the Phillips symmetric operator $S$ are studied. The concepts of stable and unstable $C$-symmetry are introduced in the extension theory framework. The main results are the following: if ${A}$ is a…
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…
