A densely-defined symmetric linear map from/to a real Hilbert space extends to a self-adjoint map. Extension is expressed via Riesz representation. For a case including Friedrichs extension of a strongly monotone map, self-adjoint extension…

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…

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…

Selfadjoint and maximal dissipative extensions of a non-densely defined symmetric operator $S$ in an infinite-dimensional separable Hilbert space are considered and their compressions on the subspace ${\rm \overline{dom}\,} S$ are studied.…

We provide sufficient and necessary conditions guaranteeing equations $(A+B)^*=A^*+B^*$ and $(AB)^*=B^*A^*$ concerning densely defined unbounded operators $A,B$ between Hilbert spaces. We also improve the perturbation theory of selfadjoint…

We revise Krein's extension theory of positive symmetric operators. Our approach using factorization through an auxiliary Hilbert space has several advantages: it can be applied to non-densely defined transformations and it works in both…

We consider the Schr\"odinger operator on a combinatorial graph consisting of a finite graph and a finite number of discrete half-lines, all jointed together, and compute an asymptotic expansion of its resolvent around the threshold $0$.…

Given a self-adjoint operator $T$ on a separable infinite-dimensional Hilbert space we study the problem of characterizing the set $\mathcal D(T)$ of all possible diagonals of $T$. For operators $T$ with at least two points in their…

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…

The aim of this paper is to develop an approach to obtain self-adjoint extensions of symmetric operators acting on anti-dual pairs. The main advantage of such a result is that it can be applied for structures not carrying a Hilbert space…

Using the concept of intrinsic metric on a locally finite weighted graph, we give sufficient conditions for the magnetic Schr\"odinger operator to be essentially self-adjoint. The present paper is an extension of some recent results proven…

Let $T$ be a self-adjoint operator in a Hilbert space $H$ with domain $\mathcal D(T)$. Assume that the spectrum of $T$ is confined in the union of disjoint intervals $\Delta_k =[\alpha_{2k-1},\alpha_{2k}]$, $k\in \mathbb{Z}$, and $$…

We consider a non-self-adjoint $h$-pseudodifferential operator $P$ in the semi-classical limit ($h\to 0$). If $p$ is the leading symbol, then under suitable assumptions about the behaviour of $p$ at infinity, we know that the resolvent…

We consider a linear symmetric operator in a Hilbert space that is neither bounded from above nor from below, admits a block decomposition corresponding to an orthogonal splitting of the Hilbert space and has a variational gap property…

We study extensions of direct sums of symmetric operators $S=\oplus_{n\in\mathbb{N}} S_n$. In general there is no natural boundary triplet for $S^*$ even if there is one for every $S_n^*$, $n\in\mathbb{N}$. We consider a subclass of…
