SynopsisThis paper is concerned with the L2 classification of ordinary symmetrical differential expressions defined on a half-line [0, ∞) and obtained from taking formal polynomials of symmetric differential expression. The work generalises results in this area previously obtained by Chaudhuri, Everitt, Giertz and the author.

SynopsisThe theory of subordinacy is extended to all one-dimensional Schrödinger operatorsfor which the corresponding differential expressionL= –d2/(dr2) +V(r) is in the limit point case at both ends of an interval (a,b), withV(r) locally integrable. This enables a detailed classification of the absolutely continuous and singular spectra to be established in terms of the relative asymptotic behaviour of solutions ofLu = xu, x εℝ, asr→aandr→b. The result provides a rigorous but straightforward method of direct spectral analysis which has very general application, and somefurther properties of the spectrum are deduced from the underlying theory.
