Commutator of $A\otimes I$ and $I \otimes B$ vanishes?
Consider two Hilbert spaces $H_1$ and $H_2$, and $A$, $B$ unbounded operators on $H_1$, $H_2$ respectively. $(A \otimes I)$ is classically defined as the closure of the operator defined on the set of ...

Showing an operator is (or not) closed on $L^2(\mathbb{R})$
I am linearizing nonlinear waves and get operators of the form below. Everything is considered in $L^2(\mathbb{R})$.
Consider the operator $L_1=\frac{d}{dx}$. The domain is $H^1(\mathbb{R})$ and it is ...

Operator-form correspondence without lower semiboundedness
When dealing with a normal unbounded operator $A$, it is often useful to frame questions about the operator in terms of questions about the associated form $\omega,$ which has domain $D(|A|^{1/2})$ ...

Identity for spectral resolution: $dE_{\xi, \xi}= |g|^2 dE_{\eta, \eta}$
Let $(\Omega, \mathcal{F})$ be a measurable space. Let $E: \mathcal{F}\to B(H)$ be a regular resolution of the identity on the Hilbert space $H$, see e.g. Rudin's functional analysis book.
Suppose ...

If $A$ is a closed operator, is $A^k$ closed?
Let $A$ be a closed (densely defined) operator on a Hilbert space $H$.
We define for a natural number $k$, the operator $A^k$ with its natural domain.
Is $A^k$ closed?

Antilinear unbounded operator has closed graph
Let $H$ and $K$ be Hilbert spaces and $D(T)$ a vector subspace of $H$. Let $T: D(T) \to K$ be a densely defined antilinear operator. Its adjoint $T^*: D(T^*)\to K$ is defined by the relation

A consequence of the Min-Max Principle for self-adjoint operators
Let $H=(H, (\cdot, \cdot))$ be a Hilbert space. Let $T_1,T_2:D \subset H \longrightarrow H$ be a self-adjoint operators (not necessarily bounded). It's well-know that the spectrum $\sigma(T_i)$ of $...

Convergence criterion in the domain of an unbounded operator
Cross-post from math.sx.
My question is somewhat close to this one, but the counterexamples given there do not apply here.
Setup. Given a Hilbert space $\mathcal H$, a closed operator $A$ and a ...

On the domains and extensions of unbounded operators
I am not an expert in functional analysis but I was studying some, motivated from some mathematical physics considerations. I am not quite sure whether this is research-level, but let me state some ...

Simplify the expression of $ T^+$ for an unbounded operator $T$?
For a negative unbounded operator $T$, what equals the operator
$$ T^+ = \left[\frac{1}{2}(|T| + T) \right]^{**},$$
where $|T|= (T^2)^{1/2}$ and $A^{**} $ is the minimal closed extension of an ...
