Abstract

We study the Schr\"{o}dinger operators on a non-compact star graph with the Coulomb-type potentials having singularities at the vertex. The convergence of regularized Hamiltonians HεH_\varepsilon with cut-off Coulomb potentials coupled with (αδ+βδ)(\alpha \delta+\beta\delta')-like ones is investigated.The 1D Coulomb potential and the δ\delta'-potential are very sensitive to their regularization method. The conditions of the norm resolvent convergence of HεH_\varepsilon depending on the regularization are established. The limit Hamiltonians give the Schr\"{o}dinger operators with the Coulomb-type potentials a mathematically precise meaning, ensuring the correct choice of vertex conditions. We also describe all self-adjoint realizations of the formal Coulomb Hamiltonians on the star graph.
