Extract

Everitt has shown [1[, that for α ∊ [0, π/2] the undernoted problem (1.1–2) with an indefinite weight function r can be represented by a selfadjoint operator in a suitable Hilbert space. This result is extended to arbitrary α ∊ [0, π), replacing the Hilbert space in some cases by a Pontrjagin space with index one. The problem is also treated in the Krein space generated by the weight function r.
