For a class of singular potentials, including the Coulomb potential (in three and less dimensions) and $V(x) = g/x^2$ with the coefficient $g$ in a certain range ($x$ being a space coordinate in one or more dimensions), the corresponding…

We give simple new proofs of two well-known results for the Schr\"odinger operator: first, the Brunn--Minkowski inequality for Dirichlet eigenvalues and, second, the log-concavity of the first Dirichlet eigenfunction. Our proof of the first…

Time operators for an abstract semi-bounded self-adjoint operator $H$ with purely discrete spectrum is considered. The existence of a bounded self-adjoint time operator $T$ for $H$ is known as Galapon time operator. In this paper, a…

In this note, we give an example of a densely defined closed one-to-one paranormal operator $T$ whose adjoint is also injective and paranormal, but $T$ fails to be normal.

Let $T$ be a densely defined closed symmetric operator with equal deficiency indices in a separable complex Hilbert space $H$. In this paper, we prove that $T$ has a self-adjoint extension with compact resolvent if and only if the domain…

Spectral theory and functional calculus for unbounded self-adjoint operators on a Hilbert space are usually treated through von Neumann's Cayley transform. Based on ideas of Woronowicz, we redevelop this theory from the point of view of…

We provide a description of the class of n-ary operations on an arbitrary chain that are quasitrivial, symmetric, nondecreasing, and associative. We also prove that associativity can be replaced with bisymmetry in the definition of this…

If $A(t)$ is a $C^{1,\al}$-curve of unbounded self-adjoint operators with compact resolvents and common domain of definition, then the eigenvalues can be parameterized $C^1$ in $t$. If $A$ is $C^\infty$ then the eigenvalues can be…

Recently, two of the authors obtained estimates for the adjoint restriction operator to finite type curves with respect to general measures. Strikingly, it turns out that some of such estimates are sharp, especially when the measures are…

We consider the formal prolate spheroid differential operator on a finite symmetric interval and describe all its self-adjoint boundary conditions. Only one of these boundary conditions corresponds to a self-adjoint differential operator…

Algebraic and analytic aspects of self-adjoint operators of order four or more with polynomial coefficients are investigated. As a consequence, a systematic way of constructing such operators is given. The procedure is applied to obtain…

In this expository article some spectral properties of self-adjoint differential operators are investigated. The main objective is to illustrate and (partly) review how one can construct domains or potentials such that the essential or…

We study one-dimensional Schroedinger operators S with real-valued distributional potentials q in W^{-1}_{2,loc}(R) and prove an extension of the Povzner-Wienholtz theorem on self-adjointness of bounded below S thus providing additional…

A special class of generalized Jacobi operators which are self-adjoint in Krein spaces is presented. A description of the resolvent set of such operators in terms of solutions of the corresponding recurrence relations is given. In…

In the present paper we give results on the closedness and the self-adjointness of the sum of two unbounded operators. We present a new approach to these fundamental questions in operator theory. We also prove a new version of the Fuglede…

We prove that a generic differential operator of type DN is irreducible, regular, (anti)self-adjoint, and has quasiunipotent local monodromies. We prove that the defining matrix of a DN operator can be recovered from the expression of the…

We characterize the set of diagonals of the unitary orbit of a self-adjoint operator with a finite spectrum. Our result extends the Schur-Horn theorem from a finite dimensional setting to an infinite dimensional Hilbert space analogous to…

Let $T\in B(H)$ be such that $T^n$ is self-adjoint for some $n\in\mathbb{N}$ with $n\geq 3$. The paper's primary aim is to establish the conditions that lead to the self-adjointness of $T$. We pay particular attention to the case where…
