Let $l[y]$ be a formally selfadjoint differential expression of an even order on the interval $[0,b> \;(b\leq \infty)$ and let $L_0$ be the corresponding minimal operator. By using the concept of a decomposing boundary triplet we consider…
With a closed symmetric operator $A$ in a Hilbert space ${\mathfrak H}$ a triple $\Pi=\{{\mathcal H},\Gamma_0,\Gamma_1\}$ of a Hilbert space ${\mathcal H}$ and two abstract trace operators $\Gamma_0$ and $\Gamma_1$ from $A^*$ to ${\mathcal…

Operator-valued $Q$-functions for special pairs of nonnegative selfadjoint extensions of nonnegative not necessarily densely defined operators are defined and their analytical properties are studied. It is shown that the Kre\u\i…
We consider various closed (and self-adjoint) extensions of elliptic differential expressions of the type $\cA=\sum_{0\le |\alpha|,|\beta|\le m}(-1)^\alpha D^\alpha a_{\alpha, \beta}(x)D^\beta$, $a_{\alpha, \beta}(\cdot)\in…
It is a classical result that the Weyl function of a simple symmetric operator in a Hilbert space determines a boundary triple uniquely up to unitary equivalence. We generalize this result to a simple symmetric operator in a Pontryagin…
In this paper we develop certain aspects of perturbation theory for self-adjoint operators subject to small variations of their domains. We use the abstract theory of boundary triplets to quantify such perturbations and give the second…

The spectral properties of non-self-adjoint extensions $A_{[B]}$ of a symmetric operator in a Hilbert space are studied with the help of ordinary and quasi boundary triples and the corresponding Weyl functions. These extensions are given in…
The Kre\u{\i}n-Naimark formula provides a parametrization of all selfadjoint exit space extensions of a, not necessarily densely defined, symmetric operator, in terms of maximal dissipative (in $\dC_+$) holomorphic linear relations on the…
For a second-order symmetric strongly elliptic operator A on a smooth bounded open set \Omega in R^n with boundary \Sigma, the mixed problem is defined by a Neumann-type condition on a part Sigma_+ of the boundary and a Dirichlet condition…
For a very general class of unbounded self-adjoint operator function we prove upper bounds for eigenvalues which lie within arbitrary gaps of the essential spectrum. These upper bounds are given by triple variations. Furthermore, we find…
The Weyl family of a dual pair $A\subseteq B^c$ of operators in a Krein space determines a minimal boundary triple uniquely up to similarity; if $A=B$, a necessary and sufficient condition in order that the similarity should be unitary is…
We generalize the notion of Lagrangian subspaces to self-orthogonal subspaces with respect to a (skew-)symmetric form, thus characterizing (skew-)self-adjoint and unitary operators by means of self-ortho-gonal subspaces. By orthogonality…
Based on the relationship of symmetric operators with Hermitian symmetric spaces, we introduce the notion of \emph{Weyl curve} for a symmetric operator $T$, which is the geometric abstraction and generalization of the well-known Weyl…
We study two- and three-dimensional matrix Schr\"odinger operators with $m\in \mathbb N$ point interactions. Using the technique of boundary triplets and the corresponding Weyl functions, we complete and generalize the results obtained by…

We develop an elliptic theory based in $L^2$ of boundary value problems for general wedge differential operators of first order under only mild assumptions on the boundary spectrum. In particular, we do not require the indicial roots to be…
In a series of papers, we will develop systematically the basic spectral theory of (self-adjoint) boundary value problems for operators of Dirac type. We begin in this paper with the characterization of (self-adjoint) boundary conditions…
The spectral shift function of a pair of self-adjoint operators is expressed via an abstract operator valued Titchmarsh--Weyl $m$-function. This general result is applied to different self-adjoint realizations of second-order elliptic…
