Conditional reducibility of certain unbounded nonnegative Hamiltonian operator functions (Q714636)

Let \({\mathcal H}\) be a Hilbert space decomposed as an orthogonal sum \({\mathcal H}={\mathcal G}\oplus{\mathcal G}\) and let \({\mathbb C}_l\) and \({\mathbb C}_r\) be the left and the right half-planes, respectively. A closed densely defined operator \({\mathfrak A}\) on \({\mathcal H}\) is called \textit{conditionally} \(({\mathcal G},{\mathcal G})\)-\textit{reducible} if there is a bounded and boundedly invertible operator \(V\) on \({\mathcal H}\) such that \({\mathcal G}\oplus\{0\}\) and \(\{0\}\oplus{\mathcal G}\) are reducing subspaces of \({\mathfrak B}:=V^{-1}{\mathfrak A}V\) and \(\sigma({\mathfrak B}_{{\mathcal G}\oplus\{0\}})\subset {\mathbb C}_r\), \(\sigma({\mathfrak B}_{\{0\}\oplus{\mathcal G}})\subset {\mathbb C}_l\). If a bounded operator \({\mathfrak A}\) admits a block decomposition \[ {\mathfrak A}=\left(\begin{matrix} A & B \\ C & -A^* \\ \end{matrix} \right) \] with respect to the decomposition \({\mathcal H}={\mathcal G}\oplus{\mathcal G}\) and \(B=B^*\), \(C=C^*\) (\(B\geq 0\), \(C\geq 0\)), then \({\mathfrak A}\) is called a \textit{Hamiltonian} (\textit{nonnegative Hamiltonian}, respectively). The question of conditional reducibility for bounded Hamiltonians was studied in [\textit{T. Ja. Azizov}, \textit{V. K. Kiriakidi} and \textit{G. A. Kurina}, Funct. Anal. Appl. 35, No. 3, 220--221 (2001); translation from Funkts. Anal. Prilozh. 35, No. 3, 73--75 (2001; Zbl 1017.47011)]. In the present paper, two sets of sufficient conditions for conditional \(({\mathcal G},{\mathcal G})\)-reducibility of unbounded nonnegative Hamiltonian operator functions are found. The first set is based on results concerning diagonalization of operator block matrices from [\textit{H. Langer} and \textit{C. Tretter}, Oper. Theory, Adv. Appl. 122, 331--358 (2001; Zbl 0976.47014)]. Another set of conditions is based on interpolation theory for Hilbert spaces and, in particular, on a result by \textit{S. Pyatkov} [Operator theory. Nonclassical problems. Utrecht: VSP (2002; Zbl 1031.47001)].
