Abstract: Let $M$ be a complete Riemannian manifold and let $Omeg{a}^{\ast }(M)$ denote the space of differential forms on $M$. Let $d:Omeg{a}^{\ast }(M)oOmeg{a}^{\ast +1}(M)$ be the exterior differential operator and let $Del=d{d}^{\ast }+d^{\ast }d$ be the Laplacian. We establish a sufficient condition for the Schroedinger operator $H=Del+V(x)$ (where the potential $V(x):Omeg{a}^{\ast }(M)oOmeg{a}^{\ast }(M)$ is a zero order differential operator) to be self-adjoint. Our result generalizes a theorem by Igor Oleinik about self-adjointness of a Schroedinger operator which acts on the space of scalar valued functions.
