On stable \(\mathcal C\)-symmetries for a class of \(\mathcal P\mathcal T\)-symmetric operators (Q2850449)

The author considers \(\mathcal P\mathcal T\)-symmetric extensions of a symmetric operator with the deficiency index (2,2). This is motivated by quantum mechanical models with \(\mathcal P\mathcal T\)-symmetric Hamiltonians; see also \textit{S. O. Kuzhel'} and \textit{O. M. Patsyuk} [Ukr. Math. J. 64, No. 1, 35--55 (2012); translation from Ukr. Mat. Zh. 64, No. 1, 32--49 (2012; Zbl 1275.47085)]. In the paper under review, necessary and sufficient conditions are found for the existence of a stable \(\mathcal C\)-symmetry for a class of \(\mathcal P\mathcal T\)-symmetric extensions. As an example, a one-dimensional Schrödinger operator with a distribution potential (involving \(\delta\)- and \(\delta'\)-terms) is considered.
