Consider two Hilbert spaces such that their intersection contains a fixed vector space D. It is of interest to make a precise linking between such two Hilbert spaces when it is assumed that D is dense in one of the two; but generally not in the other. No relative boundedness is assumed. Nonetheless, under natural assumptions (motivated by potential theory), we prove a theorem where a comparison between the two Hilbert spaces is made via a specific selfadjoint semibounded operator. Applications include physical Hamiltonians, both continuous and discrete (infinite network models), and operator theory of reflection positivity.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-09-26T20:39:13.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "47L60", "46N30", "65R10", "58J65", "81S25" ], "keywords": [ "unbounded operators", "hilbert space", "applications", "infinite network models", "specific selfadjoint semibounded operator" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015arXiv150908024J" } } }
