A theorem that is of aid in computing the domain of the adjoint operator is provided. It may serve e.g. as a criterion for selfadjointness of a symmetric operator, for normality of a formally normal operator or for $H$--selfadjointness of…
This paper addresses two different but related questions regarding an unbounded symmetric tridiagonal operator: its self-adjointness and the approximation of its spectrum by the eigenvalues of its finite truncations. The sufficient…
It is shown that in presence of certain external fields a well defined self-adjoint time operator exists, satisfying the standard canonical commutation relations with the Hamiltonian. Examples include uniform electric and gravitational…
We shall say that a densely defined closed operator $T$ on a Hilbert space is balanced if $\cD(T)=\cD(T^*)$. Balanced operators are described in terms of their phase operators abnd their moduli. Examples of balanced operators are developed.…
This paper delves into several characterizations of $A$-approximate point spectrum of A-bounded operators acting on a complex semi-Hilbertian space $H$ and also investigates properties of the $A$-approximate point spectrum for the tensor…
Let $C$ be a conjugation on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. A densely defined linear operator $A$ on $\mathcal{H}$ is called $C$-symmetric if $CAC\subseteq A^*$ and $C$-self-adjoint if $CAC=A^*$. Our main results describe all…
This chapter deals with the notion of the resolvent of a self-adjoint operator. We pay special attention to the convergence of unbounded self-adjoint operators in several resolvent senses, and how they are related to the convergence of…
We revisit and extend known bounds on operator-valued functions of the type $$ T_1^{-z} S T_2^{-1+z}, \quad z \in \ol \Sigma = \{z\in\bbC\,|\, \Re(z) \in [0,1]\}, $$ under various hypotheses on the linear operators $S$ and $T_j$, $j=1,2$.…
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…
Given a finite set $X\subseteq\R$ we characterize the diagonals of self-adjoint operators with spectrum $X$. Our result extends the Schur-Horn theorem from a finite dimensional setting to an infinite dimensional Hilbert space analogous to…
We present a version of the equivariant gradient degree defined for equivariant gradient perturbations of an equivariant unbounded self-adjoint operator with purely discrete spectrum in Hilbert space. Two possible applications are…
A large time expansion for the propagator associated to a semiclassical non-selfadjoint magnetic Schr\"odinger operator is established, in terms of the low lying eigenvalues of the operator.
The abstract theory of self-adjoint extensions of symmetric operators is used to construct self-adjoint realizations of a second-order elliptic operator on $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ with linear boundary conditions on (a relatively open part of) a…
There are enough reasons for us to consider time as a dynamical variable or operator; but according to Pauli's argument the existence of a self-adjoint time operator is incompatible with the semi-boundedness of Hamiltonian spectrum. In this…
An apparent paradox is resolved that concerns the existence of time operators which have been derived for the quantum harmonic oscillator. There is an apparent paradox because, although a time operator is canonically conjugate to the…
In this work, firstly in the Hilbert space of vector-functions L^2 (H,(-\infty,a)\bup(b,+\infty)),a<b all selfadjoint extensions of the minimal operator generated by linear singular symmetric differential expression l(\cdot)=i d/dt+A with a…
A regular symmetric operator on a Hilbert module is self-adjoint whenever there exists a suitable approximate identity. We say an operator is 'locally bounded' if the composition of the operator with each element in the approximate identity…
In this note, we mainly investigate the validity of the identities $(TT^*)^*=TT^*$ and $(T^*T)^*=T^*T$, where $T$ is a densely defined closable (or symmetric) operator.
For a {bounded} non-negative self-adjoint operator acting in a complex, infinite-dimensional, separable Hilbert space H and possessing a dense range R we propose a new approach to characterisation of phenomenon concerning the existence of…
We study the behaviour of functions of pairs of commuting self-adjoint operators under perturbations by relatively bounded operators. We obtain analogs of our earlier results for functions of a single self-adjoint operator under relatively…
