Essential self-adjointness of operators associated with the Cauchy problem for the wave equation

A sufficient Hartman-Ismagilov type condition for the essential self-adjointness of a one-parameter family of unbounded operators that arise in the solution of a Cauchy problem for the wave equation is established. An analog of this result is stated for unbounded integral operators.Translated from Ukrainskii Matematicheskii Zhurnal, Vol. 44, No. 7, pp. 940–948, July, 1992.
