The problem of self-adjoint extensions of Dirac-type operators in manifolds with boundaries is analysed. The boundaries might be regular or non-regular. The latter situation includes point-like interactions, also called delta-like…

We study extensions of direct sums of symmetric operators $S=\oplus_{n\in\mathbb{N}} S_n$. In general there is no natural boundary triplet for $S^*$ even if there is one for every $S_n^*$, $n\in\mathbb{N}$. We consider a subclass of…

Let $H$ be a separable Hilbert space, $A_c:\mathcal D_c\subset H\to H$ a densely defined unbounded operator, bounded from below, let $\mathcal D_{\min}$ be the domain of the closure of $A_c$ and $\mathcal D_{\max}$ that of the adjoint.…

Let $\gH$ be a Hilbert space and let $A$ be a simple symmetric operator in $\gH$ with equal deficiency indices $d:=n_\pm(A)<\infty$. We show that if, for all $\l$ in an open interval $I\subset\bR$, the dimension of defect subspaces…

In this paper, we consider self-adjoint difference equations of the form -\Delta(a_{n-1}\Delta y_{n-1})+b_{n}y_{n}=\lambda y_{n},n=0,1,...\label{eq:abstract} where $a_{n-1}>0$ for all $n\ge0$ and $b_{n}$ are real and $\lambda$ is complex.…

The selfadjoint extensions of a closed linear relation $R$ from a Hilbert space ${\mathfrak H}_1$ to a Hilbert space ${\mathfrak H}_2$ are considered in the Hilbert space ${\mathfrak H}_1\oplus{\mathfrak H}_2$ that contains the graph of…

In this paper we provide a quantitative comparison of two obstructions for a given symmetric operator S with dense domain in Hilbert space ${\cal H}$ to be selfadjoint. The first one is the pair of deficiency spaces of von Neumann, and the…

In this work we consider higher dimensional thin domains with the property that both boundaries, bottom and top, present oscillations of weak type. We consider the Laplace operator with Neumann boundary conditions and analyze the behavior…

Let $A$ be a self-adjoint operator in a separable Hilbert space. Suppose that the spectrum of $A$ is formed of two isolated components $\sigma_0$ and $\sigma_1$ such that the set $\sigma_0$ lies in a finite gap of the set $\sigma_1$. Assume…
