Applications of Self-Adjoint Extensions in Quantum Physics: Proceedings of a Conference Held at the Laboratory of Theoretical Physics, JINR, Dubna, USSR, September 29-October 1, 1987

The shared purpose in this collection of papers is to apply the theory of self-adjoint extensions of symmetry operators in various areas of physics. This allows the construction of exactly solvable models in quantum mechanics, quantum field theory, high energy physics, solid-state physics, microelectronics and other fields. The 20 papers selected for these proceedings give an overview of this field of research unparallelled in the published literature; in particular the views of the leading...
