Spectrum of a positive definite differential operator

When solving the two body problem in three dimensions in my QM lectures, you end up, essentially, with the Legendre associated equation. In terms of the angular momentum operator: $$L^2Y_l^m(\theta, \...

Fundamental property of Green's function is violated

$$\langle x| D|x'\rangle=D_x\langle x|x'\rangle=D_x\,\delta(x-x')$$ $DD^{-1} = I$ , Where '$I$ ' represents the Identity position representation of this equation is $\langle x|D|x'\rangle \langle ...

How boundary conditions for a green function is same a original function

I am trying to study green's function.suppose we have a differential equation, $D_x f(x) =g(x)$ , We also provided with some boundary conditions for $f(x)$, But we supply this boundary conditions in ...

Kernel of adjoint operator

This problem is puzzling me, even though it should be really simple. Let $L=-\partial_x^2 + \frac 1 2 x^{-2}$ be an operator defined on $D(L)=C^\infty_c(0,+\infty)\subset L^2(0,+\infty)$. Its adjoint ...
