Perturbation of unbounded self-adjoint operators
In the paper "A CRITERION FOR THE NORMALITY OF UNBOUNDED OPERATORS AND APPLICATIONS TO SELF-ADJOINTNESS" by M. H MORTAD (http://arxiv.org/pdf/1301.0241.pdf), the author states the following theorem

Does the generator of a 1-parameter group of Banach space isometries know which elements are entire?
Let $X$ be a complex Banach space. Let $(\sigma_t)_{t \in \mathbb{R}}$ be a 1-parameter group of linear isometries of $X$ which is strongly continuous i.e. $t \mapsto \sigma_t(x)$ is continuous for ...

When is the adjoint of a hypoelliptic operator also hypoelliptic?
Suppose that $M$ is a smooth manifold with a measure $\mu$ and let $L^2(M, \mu)$ be a space of all square-integrable functions on $M$.
Recall that $L$ is a hypoelliptic differential operator if for ...

Commuting with self-adjoint operator
Let $T$ be an (unbounded) self-adjoint operator. Assume that there is a bounded operator $S$ such that $TS=ST.$ For which kind of $f$ do we have that $f(T)S=Sf(T)?$
My thought was that using a ...

Product of positive commuting operators
Let $A$ and $B$ be positive commuting bounded operators on a Hilbert space. It can be shown by functional calculus that $AB=A^{1/2}BA^{1/2},$ so that $AB$ is again positive. If $A$ and $B$ are not ...

Commuting with an unbounded operator
Let $H$ be a Hilbert space. Let $A$ be a closed unbounded operator, and let $B\in B(H)$ be a bounded operator.
Definition:
$A$ and $B$ strong-commute if the partial isometry in the polar ...

Question about the Bessel operator
For $\nu>-1$ denote by $\{\lambda_{k,\nu}\}_{k\in\mathbb{N}}$ the succesive positive zeros of the Bessel function of the first kind $J_{\nu}$. The Bessel operator is given by

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?
