Abstract: We present a new necessary condition for similarity of indefinite Sturm-Liouville operators to self-adjoint operators. This condition is formulated in terms of Weyl-Titchmarsh $m$-functions. Also we obtain necessary conditions for regularity of the critical points 0 and $infty$ of $J$-nonnegative Sturm-Liouville operators. Using this result, we construct several examples of operators with the singular critical point zero. In particular, it is shown that 0 is a singular critical point of the operator $-frac(sgnx)(3|x|+1{)}^{-4/3}frac{d}^{2}d{x}^2$ acting in the Hilbert space $L^2(R,(3|x|+1{)}^{-4/3}dx)$ and therefore this operator is not similar to a self-adjoint one. Also we construct a J-nonnegative Sturm-Liouville operator of type $(sgnx)(-d^2/d{x}^2+q(x))$ with the same properties.
