Assume that $(X,d,\mu)$ is a metric space endowed with a non-negative Borel measure $\mu$ satisfying the doubling condition and the additional condition that $\mu(B(x,r))\gtrsim r^n$ for any $x\in X, \,r>0$ and some $n\geq1$. Let $L$ be a…

A linear operator on a Hilbert space $\mathbb{H}$, in the classical approach of von Neumann, must be symmetric to guarantee self-adjointness. However, it can be shown that the symmetry could be ommited by using a criterion for the graph of…

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…

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded domain in R d with Lipschitz boundary $\Gamma$. We define the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator N on L 2 ($\Gamma$) associated with a second order elliptic operator A = -- d k,j=1 $\partial$ k (c kl $\partial$ l) + d…

We introduce and investigate symmetric operators $L_0$ associated in the complex Hilbert space $L^2(\mathbb{R})$ with a formal differential expression \[l[u] :=-(pu')'+qu + i((ru)'+ru') \] under minimal conditions on the regularity of the…

We compute the deficiency spaces of operators of the form $H_A{\hat{\otimes}} I + I{\hat{\otimes}} H_B$, for symmetric $H_A$ and self-adjoint $H_B$. This enables us to construct self-adjoint extensions (if they exist) by means of von…

We prove a semiclassical resolvent estimate for a broad class of non-self-adjoint, non-elliptic pseudodifferential operators in the low-lying spectral regime. The proof relies on improved ellipticity properties for the symbol of the…

We prove the Schr\"odinger operator with infinitely many point interactions in $\mathbb{R}^d$ $(d=1,2,3)$ is self-adjoint if the support of the interactions is decomposed into uniformly discrete clusters. Using this fact, we prove the…

We consider in a Hilbert space a self-adjoint operator H and a family Phi=(Phi_1,...,Phi_d) of mutually commuting self-adjoint operators. Under some regularity properties of H with respect to Phi, we propose two new formulae for a time…
