We consider symmetric operators of the form $S := A\otimes I_{\mathfrak T} + I_{\mathfrak H} \otimes T$ where $A$ is symmetric and $T = T^*$ is (in general) unbounded. Such operators naturally arise in problems of simulating point contacts…

The Weyl family of a dual pair $A\subseteq B^c$ of operators in a Krein space determines a minimal boundary triple uniquely up to similarity; if $A=B$, a necessary and sufficient condition in order that the similarity should be unitary is…
