The Dirac-Schrödinger operator \(\mathscr{D}-iV\) consists of the Dirac operator \(\mathscr{D}\) and a self-adjoint endomorphism \(V\) of a vector bundle of finite rank. The \(\mathscr{D}-iV\) is known to be a Fredholm operator, i.e. a subject to the Index Theory. The author of the paper under review generalizes the Dirac-Schrödinger operators to the infinite rank vector bundles consisting of a family of unbounded operators. He shows, that such operators are Fredholm, and develops the KK-theory for them.
