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,…

This monograph contains revised and enlarged materials from previous lecture notes of undergraduate and graduate courses and seminars delivered by both authors over the last years on a subject that is central both in abstract operator…

The theory of symmetric, non-selfadjoint operators has several deep applications to the complex function theory of certain reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces of analytic functions, as well as to the study of ordinary differential operators…

We prove that given a symmetric completely non-selfadjoint operator $B$ with finite deficiency indices $(n,n)$ on a Hilbert space and a boundary triplet $\left(\mathbb{C}^{n},\Gamma_{1},\Gamma_{2}\right)$ for $B^{*}$, the set of points in…

Recently it has been shown that any regular simple symmetric operator with deficiency indices (1,1) is unitarily equivalent to the operator of multiplication in a reproducing kernel Hilbert space of functions on the real line with the…

The main goal of this paper is to show that a (not necessarily densely defined or closed) symmetric operator $A$ acting on a real or complex Hilbert space is selfadjoint exactly when $I+A^2$ is a full range operator.

In this paper we study invertible extensions of a symmetric operator in a Hilbert space $H$. All such extensions are characterized by a parameter in the generalized Neumann's formulas. Generalized resolvents, which are generated by the…

In general, it is a non trivial task to determine the adjoint $S^*$ of an unbounded operator $S$ acting between two Hilbert spaces. We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a given operator $T$ to be identical with $S^*$. In our…

Let $A$ be a symmetric linear relation in the Hilbert space $\gH$ with equal deficiency indices $n_\pm (A)\leq\infty$. A self-adjoint linear relation $\wt A\supset A$ in some Hilbert space $\wt\gH\supset \gH$ is called an exit space…

We prove explicitly that to every discrete, semibounded Hamiltonian with constant degeneracy and with finite sum of the squares of the reciprocal of its eigenvalues and whose eigenvectors span the entire Hilbert space there exists a…

Let $L_0$ be a densely defined minimal linear operator in a Hilbert space $H$. We prove theorem that if there exists at least one correct extension $L_S$ of $L_0$ with the property $D(L_S)=D(L_S^*)$, then we can describe all correct…

Embedded point spectra of rank one singular perturbations of an arbitrary self-adjoint operator A on a Hilbert space H is studied. It is shown that these perturbations can be regarded as self-adjoint extensions of a densely defined closed…

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.…

We investigate minimal operator corresponding to operator differential expression with exit from space, study its selfadjoint extensions, also for one particular selfadjoint extension corresponding to boundary value problem with some…

We provide sufficient and necessary conditions guaranteeing equations $(A+B)^*=A^*+B^*$ and $(AB)^*=B^*A^*$ concerning densely defined unbounded operators $A,B$ between Hilbert spaces. We also improve the perturbation theory of selfadjoint…

This paper aims to study reducible and irreducible approximation in the set $\textsl{CSO}$ of all complex symmetric operators on a separable, complex Hilbert space $\mathcal H$. When ${\rm dim} \mathcal H=\infty$, it is proved that both…

We study the spectral convergence of compact, self-adjoint operators on a separable Hilbert space under operator norm perturbations, and derive asymptotic expansions for their eigenvalues and eigenprojections. Our analysis focuses on…

We study singular Schr\"odinger operators on a finite interval as selfadjoint extensions of a symmetric operator. We give sufficient conditions for the symmetric operator to be in the $n$-entire class, which was defined in our previous…

Given two different self-adjoint extensions of the same symmetric operator, we analyse the intersection of their point spectra. Some simple examples are provided.

It is shown that a contraction on a Hilbert space is complex symmetric if and only if the values of its characteristic function are all symmetric with respect to a fixed conjugation. Applications are given to the description of complex…
