M. Kreĭn’s Research on Semi-Bounded Operators, its Contemporary Developments, and Applications

Abstract: We are going to consider the M Kreĭn classical papers on the theory of semi-bounded operators and the theory of contractive self-adjoint extensions of Hermitian contractions, and discuss their impact and role in the solution of J von Neumann’s problem about parametrization in terms of his formulas of all nonnegative self-adjoint extensions of nonnegative symmetric operators, in the solution of the Phillips-Kato extension problems (in restricted sense) about existence and parametrization of all proper sectorial (accretive) extensions of nonnegative operators, in bi-extension theory of non-negative operators with the exit into triplets of Hilbert spaces, in the theory of singular perturbations of nonnegative self-adjoint operators, in general realization problems (in system theory) of Stieltjes matrix-valued functions, in Nevanlinna-Pick system interpolation in the class of sectorial Stieltjes functions, in conservative systems theory with accretive main Schrodinger operator, in the theory of semi-bounded symmetric and self-adjoint operators invariant with respect to some groups of transformations New developments and applications to the singular differential operators are discussed as well

A description of all self-adjoint extensions of the Laplacian and Kreĭn-type resolvent formulas on non-smooth domains

Abstract: This paper has two main goals. First, we are concerned with a description of all self-adjoint extensions of the Laplacian $$ - \Delta {|_{C_0^\infty (\Omega )}}$$ in L 2(Ω; d n x). Here, the domain Ω belongs to a subclass of bounded Lipschitz domains (which we term quasi-convex domains), that contains all convex domains as well as all domains of class C 1,r , for r > 1/2. Second, we establish Kreĭn-type formulas for the resolvents of the various self-adjoint extensions of the Laplacian in quasiconvex domains and study the well-posedness of boundary value problems for the Laplacian as well as basic properties of the corresponding Weyl-Titchmarsh operators (or energy-dependent Dirichlet-to-Neumann maps). One significant innovation in this paper is an extension of the classical boundary trace theory for functions in spaces that lack Sobolev regularity in a traditional sense, but are suitably adapted to the Laplacian.

Weyl-Titchmarsh Theory for Sturm-Liouville Operators with Distributional Potentials

Abstract: We systematically develop Weyl-Titchmarsh theory for singular differential operators on arbitrary intervals $(a,b) \subseteq \mathbb{R}$ associated with rather general differential expressions of the type \[ \tau f = \frac{1}{r} (- \big(p[f' + s f]\big)' + s p[f' + s f] + qf),] where the coefficients $p$, $q$, $r$, $s$ are real-valued and Lebesgue measurable on $(a,b)$, with $p eq 0$, $r>0$ a.e.\ on $(a,b)$, and $p^{-1}$, $q$, $r$, $s \in L^1_{\text{loc}}((a,b); dx)$, and $f$ is supposed to satisfy [f \in AC_{\text{loc}}((a,b)), \; p[f' + s f] \in AC_{\text{loc}}((a,b)).] In particular, this setup implies that $\tau$ permits a distributional potential coefficient, including potentials in $H^{-1}_{\text{loc}}((a,b))$. We study maximal and minimal Sturm-Liouville operators, all self-adjoint restrictions of the maximal operator $T_{\text{max}}$, or equivalently, all self-adjoint extensions of the minimal operator $T_{\text{min}}$, all self-adjoint boundary conditions (separated and coupled ones), and describe the resolvent of any self-adjoint extension of $T_{\text{min}}$. In addition, we characterize the principal object of this paper, the singular Weyl-Titchmarsh-Kodaira $m$-function corresponding to any self-adjoint extension with separated boundary conditions and derive the corresponding spectral transformation, including a characterization of spectral multiplicities and minimal supports of standard subsets of the spectrum. We also deal with principal solutions and characterize the Friedrichs extension of $T_{\text{min}}$. Finally, in the special case where $\tau$ is regular, we characterize the Krein-von Neumann extension of $T_{\text{min}}$ and also characterize all boundary conditions that lead to positivity preserving, equivalently, improving, resolvents (and hence semigroups).

Weyl-Titchmarsh theory for Sturm-Liouville operators with distributional potentials

Abstract: We systematically develop Weyl-Titchmarsh theory for singular differential operators on arbitrary intervals \((a,b) \subseteq \mathbb{R}\) associated with rather general differential expressions of the type \begin{equation*}\tau f = \frac{1}{\tau} (-(p[f'+sf])'+sp[f'+sf]+qf),\end{equation*} where the coefficients \(p, q, r, s\) are real-valued and Lebesgue measurable on \((a,b)\), with \(p eq 0\), \(r \gt 0\) a.e. on \((a,b)\), and \(p^{-1}, q, r, s \in L_{loc}^1((a,b),dx)\), and \(f\) is supposed to satisfy \begin{equation*} f \in AC_{loc}((a,b)), p[f'+sf] \in AC_{loc}((a,b)). \end{equation*} In particular, this setup implies that \(\tau\) permits a distributional potential coefficient, including potentials in \(H_{loc}^{-1}((a,b))\). We study maximal and minimal Sturm-Liouville operators, all self-adjoint restrictions of the maximal operator \(T_{max}\), or equivalently, all self-adjoint extensions of the minimal operator \(T_{min}\), all self-adjoint boundary conditions (separated and coupled ones), and describe the resolvent of any self-adjoint extension of \(T_{min}\). In addition, we characterize the principal object of this paper, the singular Weyl-Titchmarsh-Kodaira m-function corresponding to any self-adjoint extension with separated boundary conditions and derive the corresponding spectral transformation, including a characterization of spectral multiplicities and minimal supports of standard subsets of the spectrum. We also deal with principal solutions and characterize the Friedrichs extension of \(T_{min}\). Finally, in the special case where \(\tau\) is regular, we characterize the Krein-von Neumann extension of \(T_{min}\) and also characterize all boundary conditions that lead to positivity preserving, equivalently, improving, resolvents (and hence semigroups).
