We consider a Sturm--Liouville boundary value problem in a boun\-ded domain $\cD$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$. By this is meant that the differential equation is given by a second order elliptic operator of divergent form in $\cD$ and the boundary…

We investigate the problem of similarity to a self-adjoint operator for $J$-positive Sturm-Liouville operators $L=\frac{1}{\omega}(-\frac{d^2}{dx^2}+q)$ with $2\pi$-periodic coefficients $q$ and $\omega$. It is shown that if 0 is a critical…

Given a self-adjoint involution J on a Hilbert space H, we consider a J-self-adjoint operator L=A+V on H where A is a possibly unbounded self-adjoint operator commuting with J and V a bounded J-self-adjoint operator anti-commuting with J.…

Sufficient conditions for the similarity of the operator $A := 1/r(x) (-d^2/dx^2 +q(x))$ with an indefinite weight $r(x)=(\sgn x)|r(x)|$ are obtained. These conditions are formulated in terms of Titchmarsh-Weyl $m$-coefficients. Sufficient…
