Abstract
Motivated by a recent study of Bessel operators in connection with a refinement of Hardy's inequality involving on the finite interval , we now take a closer look at the underlying Bessel-type operators with more general inverse square singularities at the interval endpoints. More precisely, we consider quadratic forms and operator realizations in associated with differential expressions of the form \[ ω_{s_a} = - \frac{d^2}{dx^2} + \frac{s_a^2 - (1/4)}{(x-a)^2}, \quad s_a \in \mathbb{R}, \; x \in (a,b), \] and \begin{align*} τ_{s_a,s_b} = - \frac{d^2}{dx^2} + \frac{s_a^2 - (1/4)}{(x-a)^2} + \frac{s_b^2 - (1/4)}{(x-b)^2} + q(x), \quad x \in (a,b),& \\ s_a, s_b \in [0,\infty), \; q \in L^{\infty}((a,b); dx), \; q \text{ real-valued~a.e.~on ,}& \end{align*} where is a bounded interval. As an explicit illustration we describe the Krein-von Neumann extension of the minimal operator corresponding and .
