Essential self-adjointness and self-adjointness for even order elliptic operators
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 November 2011
Synopsis
We consider elliptic operators of the form , on L2(Rn), and establish conditions under which T is essentially self-adjoint on , and self-adjoint on H2m(Rn)∩D(q).
