We consider self-adjoint extensions of differential operators of the type $ (-\frac{d^2}{dr^2} + \frac{l(l+1)}{r^2})^3 $ on the real semi-axis for l=1,2 with two kinds of boundary conditions: first that nullify the value of a function and…

We consider the minimal differential operator A generated in $L^2(0,\infty)$ by the differential expression $l(y) = (-1)^n y^{(2n)}$. Using the technique of boundary triplets and the corresponding Weyl functions, we find explicit form of…

In this work, firstly in the direct sum of Hilbert spaces of vector-functions L^2 (H,(-{\infty},a_1)){\Box}L^2 (H,(a_2,b_2)){\Box}L^2 (H,(a_3,+{\infty})),- {\infty}<a_1<a_2<b_2<a_3<+{\infty} all selfadjoint extensions of the minimal…

We provide a new short proof of the following fact, first proved by one of us in 1998: If two Weyl-Titchmarsh m-functions, $m_j(z)$, of two Schr\"odinger operators $H_j = -\f{d^2}{dx^2} + q_j$, j=1,2 in $L^2 ((0,R))$, $0<R\leq \infty$, are…

For a Riemannian covering $p \colon M_{2} \to M_{1}$, we compare the spectrum of an essentially self-adjoint differential operator $D_{1}$ on a bundle $E_{1} \to M_{1}$ with the spectrum of its lift $D_{2}$ on $p^{*}E_{1} \to M_{2}$. We…

We characterize by boundary conditions the Krein-von Neumann extension of a strictly positive minimal operator corresponding to a regular even order quasi-differential expression of Shin-Zettl type. The characterization is stated in terms…

This dissertation focuses on developing a new construction of a functional calculus using Henstock-Kurzweil integration methods. The assignment of a functional calculus will be applied to self-adjoint operators. We will address both the…

We survey the notion of the spectral shift function of a pair of self-adjoint operators and recent progress on its connection with the Witten index. We also describe a proof of Krein's Trace Theorem that does not use complex analysis [53]…

In this article, we construct operator models for meromorphic functions of bounded type on Krein spaces. This construction is based on certain reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces which are closely related to model spaces. Specifically, we…

Given a bounded selfadjoint operator W on a Krein space H and a closed subspace S of H, the Schur complement of W to S is defined under the hypothesis of weak complementability. A variational characterization of the Schur complement is…

The selfadjoint extensions of a closed linear relation $R$ from a Hilbert space ${\mathfrak H}_1$ to a Hilbert space ${\mathfrak H}_2$ are considered in the Hilbert space ${\mathfrak H}_1\oplus{\mathfrak H}_2$ that contains the graph of…

The main result of the paper is a description of the class of functions on the unit circle, for which Krein's trace formula holds for arbitrary pairs of unitary operators with trace class difference. We prove that this class of functions…

We develop Weyl-Titchmarsh theory for self-adjoint Schr\"odinger operators $H_{\alpha}$ in $L^2((a,b);dx;\cH)$ associated with the operator-valued differential expression $\tau =-(d^2/dx^2)+V(\cdot)$, with $V:(a,b)\to\cB(\cH)$, and $\cH$ a…

We provide a streamlined construction of the Friedrichs extension of a densely-defined self-adjoint and semibounded operator $A$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, by means of a symmetric pair of operators. A \emph{symmetric pair} is…

Let $A$ and $A_{1}$ are unbounded selfadjoint operators in a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$. Following \cite{AK} we call $A_{1}$ a \textit{singular} perturbation of $A$ if $A$ and $A_{1}$ have different domains…

This note deals with the operator $T^*T$, where $T$ is a densely defined operator on a complex Hilbert space. We reprove a recent result of Z. Sebesty\'en and Zs. Tarcsay [13]: If $T^*T$ and $TT^*$ are self-adjoint, then $T$ is closed. In…

If $T$ is a semibounded self-adjoint operator in a Hilbert space $(H, \, (\cdot , \cdot))$ then the closure of the sesquilinear form $(T \cdot , \cdot)$ is a unique Hilbert space completion. In the non-semibounded case a closure is a…
