Abstract:Let B + and B − be nonnegative symmetric operators with defect numbers (1, 1) in Hilbert spaces H + and H − . We consider the coupling A of operators A + = B + and A − = −B − which is self-adjoint, nonnegative and has a nonempty resolvent set in the Kreȋn space K with the fundamental decomposition K = H + [+]H − . Such an operator is definitizable and has at most two critical points at ∞ and 0. It is similar to a self-adjoint operator in a Hilbert space if and only if its critical points are regular and there … Show more
