We study positivity, localization of binding and essential self-adjointness properties of a class of Schrödinger operators with many anisotropic inverse square singularities, including the case of multiple dipole potentials.

We give an abstract categorical presentation of continuation semantics by taking the continuation type constructor : (or cont in Standard ML of New Jersey) as primitive. This constructor on types extends to a contravariant functor on terms which is adjoint to itself on the left; restricted to the subcategory of those programs that do not manipulate the current continuation, it is adjoint to its...

We study the essential self-adjointness for real principal type differential operators. Unlike elliptic case, we need geometric conditions even operators on Euclidean space with asymptotically constant coefficients, and prove under null non-trapping condition.

Many different proposals exist for the definition of lower and upper approximation operators in covering-based rough sets. In this paper, we establish relationships between the most commonly used operators, using especially concepts of duality, conjugacy and adjointness (also referred to as Galois connection). We highlight the importance of the adjointness condition as a way to provide a meanin...

The categorical concept of a theory for algebras of a given type was foundet by Lawvere in 1963 (see [8]). Hoehnke extended this concept to partial heterogenous algebras in 1976 (see [5]). A partial theory is a dhts-category such that the object class forms a free algebra of type (2,0,0) freely generated by a nonempty set J in the variety determined by the identities ox ≈ o and xo ≈ o, where o ...

Distinguished selfadjoint extensions of operators which are not semibounded can be deduced from the positivity of the Schur Complement (as a quadratic form). In practical applications this amounts to proving a Hardy-like inequality. Particular cases are Dirac-Coulomb operators where distinguished selfadjoint extensions are obtained for the optimal range of coupling constants.
