We study the exterior derivative as a symmetric unbounded operator on square integrable 1-forms on a 3D bounded domain $D$. We aim to identify boundary conditions that render this operator self-adjoint. By the symplectic version of the…

Let $C$ be a conjugation on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. A densely defined linear operator $A$ on $\mathcal{H}$ is called $C$-symmetric if $CAC\subseteq A^*$ and $C$-self-adjoint if $CAC=A^*$. Our main results describe all…

Given an open set $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^3$. We deal with the spectral study of Dirac operators of the form $H_{a,\tau}=H+A_{a,\tau}\delta_{\partial\Omega}$, where $H$ is the free Dirac operator in $\mathbb{R}^3$, $A_{a,\tau}$ is a…

Let $\Omega_-$ and $\Omega_+$ be two bounded smooth domains in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $n\ge 2$, separated by a hypersurface $\Sigma$. For $\mu>0$, consider the function $h_\mu=1_{\Omega_-}-\mu 1_{\Omega_+}$. We discuss self-adjoint realizations of…
