The author considers the minimal and the maximal closed realization of the Laplacian on the half space and on the unit ball, starting from the set of compactly supported and infinitely differentiable functions. Then he describes completely the various spectra of these operators, and notices that they are drastically different from those in the whole space (e.g. their essential spectrum consists in all complex numbers).
