Nonself-adjoint second-order difference operators in limit-circle cases

Summary: We consider the maximal dissipative second-order difference (or discrete Sturm-Liouville) operators acting in the Hilbert space \(\ell^2_w(\mathbb Z)\) (\(\mathbb Z : = \{0, \pm 1, \pm 2, \dots\}\)), that is, the extensions of a minimal symmetric operator with defect index \((2, 2)\) (in the Weyl-Hamburger limit-circle cases at \(\pm \infty\)). We investigate two classes of maximal dissipative operators with separated boundary conditions, called ``dissipative at \(-\infty\) and ``dissipative at \(\infty\). In each case, we construct a self-adjoint dilation of the maximal dissipative operator and its incoming and outgoing spectral representations, which make it possible to determine the scattering matrix of the dilation. We also establish a functional model of the maximal dissipative operator and determine its characteristic function through the Titchmarsh-Weyl function of the self-adjoint operator. We prove the completeness of the system of eigenvectors and associated vectors of the maximal dissipative operators.
