The paper's primary aim is to establish the conditions that lead to the self-adjointness of $T$. We pay particular attention to the case where $T^3=0$ and how it implies $T$ is complex symmetric.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-07-18T19:03:43.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "self-adjoint operators", "papers primary aim", "complex symmetric", "conditions" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
