Proposition 15.6 Let \( \lambda \in \mathbb{C} \smallsetminus \mathbb{R} \) . Then for each end point of the interval \( \left( {a, b}\right) \), there exists a nonzero solution of (15.5) which is in \( {L}^{2} \) near to it.
Proof We carry out the proof for the end point \( b \) ; the case of \( a \) is similar.\n\nFix \( c \in \left( {a, b}\right) \) and let \( {T}_{c} \) denote the corresponding operator on the interval \( \left( {c, b}\right) \) in \( {L}^{2}\left( {c, b}\right) \) . Choosing functions \( f, g \in {C}_{0}^{\infty }\left...

Corollary 15.7 If at least one end point is regular, then the deficiency indices of \( T \) are \( \left( {1,1}\right) \) or \( \left( {2,2}\right) \) . If both end points are regular, then \( T \) has deficiency indices \( \left( {2,2}\right) \) .
Proof Let \( \lambda \in \mathbb{C} \smallsetminus \mathbb{R} \) . If both end points are regular, by Proposition 15.5(ii) all solutions \( f \) of (15.5) are in \( {L}^{2} \) near \( a \) and in \( {L}^{2} \) near \( b \), so \( f \in \mathcal{N}\left( {{T}^{ * } - {\lambda I}}\right) \) . Thus, \( \dim \mathcal{N}\le...

Example 15.1 \( \left( {q\left( x\right) \equiv 0\text{on}\left( {a, b}\right) }\right) \) For \( \lambda \in \mathbb{C},\lambda \neq 0 \), a fundamental system of Eq.

If \( a \) or \( b \) is in \( \mathbb{R} \), it is a regular end point, and \( T \) is in the limit circle case at \( a \) resp. \( b \) . If \( a = - \infty \) or \( b = \infty \), then \( {u}_{1}\left( {\cdot ;\lambda }\right) \notin {L}^{2}\left( {a, b}\right) \), so \( T \) is in the limit point case.
No
Lemma 15.9 If \( T \) is in the limit point case at a (resp. b), then \( {\left\lbrack f, g\right\rbrack }_{a} = 0 \) (resp. \( \left. {{\left\lbrack f, g\right\rbrack }_{b} = 0}\right) \) for all \( f, g \in \mathcal{D}\left( {T}^{ * }\right) \) .
Proof We prove this for the end point \( b \) . As in the proof of Proposition 15.6, we fix \( c \in \left( {a, b}\right) \) and consider the operator \( {T}_{c} \) on the interval \( \left( {c, b}\right) \) in \( {L}^{2}\left( {c, b}\right) \) . Let \( \lambda \in \mathbb{C} \smallsetminus \mathbb{R} \) . Since \( \ma...

Proposition 15.11 Let \( b = + \infty \) and suppose that \( q \) is bounded from below near to \( + \infty \) (that is, there are numbers \( c > a \) and \( \gamma \in \mathbb{R} \) such that \( q\left( x\right) \geq \gamma \) for all \( x \geq c \) ). Then \( T \) is in the limit point case at \( b = + \infty \) .
Proof By Proposition 15.3(ii), there is a unique solution \( u \) of the differential equation \( \mathcal{L}\left( f\right) \equiv - {f}^{\prime \prime } + {qf} = {\gamma f} \) on \( \left( {a, + \infty }\right) \) satisfying \( u\left( c\right) = 1,{u}^{\prime }\left( c\right) = 0 \) . Since \( \bar{u} \) is a soluti...

Proposition 15.12 Suppose that \( a = 0 \) and \( b \in (0, + \infty \rbrack \) .\n\n(i) If there exists a positive number \( c \) such that \( c < b \) and \( q\left( x\right) \geq \frac{3}{4}{x}^{-2} \) for all \( x \in \left( {0, c}\right) \), then \( T \) is in the limit point case at \( a = 0 \) .
Proof (i): Put \( {u}_{0}\left( x\right) \mathrel{\text{:=}} {x}^{-1/2} \) . Clearly, the function \( {u}_{0} \) is not in \( {L}^{2} \) near \( a = 0 \), and it satisfies the equation \( - {u}_{0}^{\prime \prime }\left( x\right) + \frac{3}{4}{x}^{-2}{u}_{0}\left( x\right) = 0 \) on \( \left( {0, b}\right) \) .\n\nBy P...

Example 15.2 \( \left( {q\left( x\right) = \gamma {x}^{-2},\gamma \in \mathbb{R}\text{, on}\left( {0, + \infty }\right) }\right) \) Then \( \mathcal{L}\left( f\right) = - {f}^{\prime \prime } + {qf} = 0 \) is one form of Bessel’s equation. The preceding criterion implies that \( T \) is in the limit point case at \( b ...
By Proposition 15.12, \( T \) is in the limit point case at \( a = 0 \) if and only if \( \gamma \geq 3/4 \) . Therefore, by Theorem 15.10, \( T \) is essentially self-adjoint if and only if \( \gamma \geq 3/4 \) . Otherwise, the symmetric operator \( T \) has deficiency indices \( \left( {1,1}\right) \) .
No
Example 15.3 (Regular end points \( a \) and \( b \) ) Throughout this example we assume that both end points \( a \) and \( b \) are regular. Recall that by Definition 15.1 this holds if and only if \( a \) and \( b \) are in \( \mathbb{R} \) and \( q \in {L}^{1}\left( {a, b}\right) \) .
Then the boundary triplet in Example 14.2 for \( q = 0 \) generalizes verbatim to the present case. Indeed, if \( f \in \mathcal{D}\left( {T}^{ * }\right) \), then \( f \) and \( {f}^{\prime } \) can be extended to continuous functions on \( \left\lbrack {a, b}\right\rbrack \) by Proposition 15.5(i). Therefore, by comb...

In this example we suppose that \( T \) is in the limit circle case at both end points \( a \) and \( b \). In order to construct a boundary triplet for \( {T}^{ * } \), we assume that \( {u}_{1} \) and \( {u}_{2} \) are real-valued functions of \( \mathcal{D}\left( {T}^{ * }\right) \) satisfying\n\n\[ \n{\left\lbrack ...

Assume now that the end point \( a \) is regular and \( T \) is in the limit point case at \( b \).
Then, by Proposition 15.5(i) and Lemma 15.9, \( f \) and \( {f}^{\prime } \) extend to continuous functions on \( \lbrack a, b) \), and we have \( {\left\lbrack f, g\right\rbrack }_{b} = 0 \) for \( f, g \in \mathcal{D}\left( {T}^{ * }\right) \) . Therefore, by (15.4), \[ {\left\lbrack f, g\right\rbrack }_{{T}^{ * }} =...

Example 15.7 (Limit circle case at a and limit point case at \( b \) ) Suppose that \( T \) is in the limit circle case at \( a \) and in the limit point case at \( b \) .\n\nLet us assume that \( {u}_{1} \) and \( {u}_{2} \) are real-valued functions from \( \mathcal{D}\left( {T}^{ * }\right) \) such that\n\n\[{\left\...
To show that such functions exist, we modify the reasoning from Example 15.4. Let us denote the functions \( {u}_{1},{u}_{2} \) constructed therein by \( {\widetilde{u}}_{1},{\widetilde{u}}_{2} \), respectively. Since \( T \) is in the limit point case at \( b \), we cannot conclude that \( {\widetilde{u}}_{1},{\wideti...

Let \( {\alpha }_{1},{\alpha }_{2}...
Proof Since conditions (15.32) are just Eqs. (14.34) in Example 14.8 applied to the boundary triplet (15.22) of Example 15.4, the operator \( {A}_{\alpha } \) is self-adjoint.\n\nFix \( z \in \rho \left( {A}_{\alpha }\right) \) .

Explicit examples of indeterminate moment sequences were already constructed by T. Stieltjes (1894).

Theorem 16.1 Let \( s \) be a positive definite real sequence. Then the moment problem for \( s \) has a solution.
Proof Let \( A \) be a self-adjoint extension of \( {M}_{x} \) on \( \mathcal{G} \) . Since \( {M}_{x} \subseteq A \) and hence \( {\left( {M}_{x}\right) }^{n} \subseteq {A}^{n} \), the polynomial 1 is in the domain \( \mathcal{D}\left( {A}^{n}\right) \), and we have\n\n\[ \n{\int }_{\mathbb{R}}{x}^{n}d\left\langle {{E...

Lemma 1.61. Let \( W \) and \( X \) be Banach spaces, and let \( C \) be the projection \( {p}_{X}\left( F\right) \) on \( X \) of a closed convex subset \( F \) of \( W \times X \) . If the projection \( {p}_{W}\left( F\right) \) of \( F \) on \( W \) is bounded, then \( C \) is ideally convex.

Lemma 1.62. Let \( C \) be an ideally convex subset of a Banach space \( X \) .

Given \( \bar{x} \in \operatorname{int}\left( {\operatorname{cl}\left( C\right) }\right) \), let us show that \( \bar{x}...

Theorem 1.63 (Robinson-Ursescu). Let \( W, X \) be Banach spaces, let \( F : W \rightrightarrows X \) be a multimap with closed convex graph. Then for every \( \left( {\bar{w},\bar{x}}\right) \) in the graph of \( F \) such that \( \bar{x} \in \operatorname{core}F\left( W\right) \), the multimap \( F \) is open at \( \...
Proof. Without loss of generality, we may suppose \( \left( {\bar{w},\bar{x}}\right) = \left( {0,0}\right) \), so that \( F\left( W\right) \) is absorbing. Let \( B \) be the closed ball with center \( \bar{w} = 0 \) and radius \( r \) in \( W \) and let \( C \mathrel{\text{:=}} F\left( B\right) = {p}_{X}\left( {\left(...

Proof. (a) Let us first consider the case that \( C \) is closed. Since \( X \) is finite-dimensional, we may endow \( X \) with the norm associated with a scalar product \( \left( {\cdot \mid \cdot }\right) \) .

Proof. Since \( C \mathrel{\text{:=}} A - B \) is convex and since \( A \) and \( B \) are disjoint, one has \( 0 \notin C \) and it suffices to take the linear form \( f \) provided by the preceding statement.

Proposition 1.66. The space \( S\left( X\right) \) of finitely valued sublinear functions on a linear space \( X \), ordered by the pointwise order, is lower inductive, hence has minimal elements. Each such element is a linear form.

For every \( s \in C, x \in X \), we have\n\n\[ s\left( x\right) \geq \inf \left( {{s}_{0}\left( x\right) , - {s}_{0}\left( {-x}\right) }\right) \]\n\nsince we ...

Proof. For all \( x \in X \), the inequality \( {s}_{u}\left( x\right) \leq s\left( x\right) \) stems from the choice \( t = 0 \) in relation (1.16). Now, since for \( t \in {\mathbb{R}}_{ + } \) we have \( s\left( {-{tu}}\right) \leq s\left( {x - {tu}}\right) + s\left( {-x}\right) \), we get\n\n\[ \n\forall t \in {\ma...

Given \( \varepsilon > 0 \) we can find a symmetric neighborhood \( V \) of 0 such that \( h\left( v\right) \leq \varepsilon \) for every \( v \in V \) .

Theorem 1.71 provides some linear form \( \ell \) on \( X \) that extends \( {y}^{ * } \) and is bounded above by \( c\parallel \cdot \parallel \), hence is continuous.

Corollary 1.73 ensures that \( r \) is onto. The kernel of \( r \) being precisely \( {Y}^{ \bot } \), one can factorize \( r \) as \( r = q \circ p \)...

Proof. Let \( C \mathrel{\text{:=}} \overline{\operatorname{co}}\left( {S\cup \{ 0\} }\right) \) . Since one has \( S \subset {S}^{00} \), and since \( {S}^{00} \) is closed convex and contains 0, one has \( C \subset {S}^{00} \) .
