Abstract

The Bender-Dunne basis operators, Tm,n=2nk=0n(nk)qkpmqnk\mathsf{T}_{-m,n}=2^{-n}\sum_{k=0}^n {n \choose k} \mathsf{q}^k \mathsf{p}^{-m} \mathsf{q}^{n-k} where q\mathsf{q} and p\mathsf{p} are the position and momentum operators respectively, are formal integral operators in position representation in the entire real line R\mathbb{R} for positive integers nn and mm. We show, by explicit construction of a dense domain, that the operators Tm,n\mathsf{T}_{-m,n}'s are densely defined operators in the Hilbert space L2(R)L^2(\mathbb{R}).
