We consider a Dirac operator in three space dimensions, with an electrostatic (i.e. real-valued) potential $V(x)$, having a strong Coulomb-type singularity at the origin. This operator is not always essentially self-adjoint but admits a…

We study the spectrum of a periodic non-self-adjoint Dirac operator, and its dependence on a semiclassical parameter is also considered. Several bounds on the spectrum are obtained which provide sharp spectral enclosure estimates.…
We extend Krupnik's criterion of self-adjointness of the Cauchy singular integral operator to the case of finitely connected domains. The main aim of the paper is to present a new approach for proof of the criterion.
Singular configuration of an external static magnetic field in the form of a string polarizes vacuum in the secondly quantized theory on a plane which is orthogonal to the string axis. We consider the most general boundary conditions at the…

We investigate the effect of non-symmetric relatively bounded perturbations on the spectrum of self-adjoint operators. In particular, we establish stability theorems for one or infinitely many spectral gaps along with corresponding…

We present an explicit two-parameter family of finite-band Jacobi elliptic potentials for a non-self-adjoint Dirac operator which connects two previously known limiting cases in which the elliptic parameter is zero or one. A full…

We prove the essential self-adjointness of the d'Alembertian $\square_g$, allowing a larger class of spacetimes than previously considered, including those that arise from perturbing Minkowski spacetime by gravitational radiation. We…
In this paper, the problem of the self-adjointness for the case of a quantum minisuperspace Hamiltonian retrieved from a Brans-Dicke (BD) action is investigated. Our matter content is presented in terms of a perfect fluid, onto which the…
In this paper we study the self-adjointness and spectral properties of two-dimensional Dirac operators with electrostatic, Lorentz scalar, and anomalous magnetic $\delta$-shell interactions with constant weights that are supported on a…
Employing the covariant language of two-spinors, we find what conditions a curved Lorentzian spacetime must satisfy for existence of a second order symmetry operator for the massive Dirac equation. The conditions are formulated as existence…
We consider supersymmetric quantum mechanical systems in arbitrary dimensions on curved spaces with nontrivial gauge fields. The square of the Dirac operator serves as Hamiltonian. We derive a relation between the number of supercharges…
We discuss the essential self-adjointness of wave operators, as well as the limiting absorption principle, in generalizations of asymptotically Minkowski settings. This is obtained via using a Fredholm framework for inverting the spectral…
In this note we give a concise review of the present state-of-art for the problem of self-adjoint realisations for the Dirac operator with a Coulomb-like singular scalar potential $V(\vec x)=\phi(\vec x) I_4$. We try to follow the…
Observables in quantum mechanics are represented by self-adjoint operators on Hilbert space. Such ubiquitous, well-known, and very foundational fact, however, is traditionally subtle to be explained in typical first classes in quantum…
Distinguished selfadjoint extensions of Dirac operators are constructed for a class of potentials including Coulombic ones up to the critical case, $-|x|^{-1}$. The method uses Hardy-Dirac inequalities and quadratic form techniques.
For the example of the infinitely deep well potential, we point out some paradoxes which are solved by a careful analysis of what is a truly self-adjoint operator. We then describe the self-adjoint extensions and their spectra for the…
