Abstract

In this paper we study a special class of formally self-adjoint finite difference operators acting on infinite sequences. Such operators give rise to self-adjoint ones acting on appropriate Hilbert spaces. We prove that the latter operators possess a set of orthonormal eigenvectors complete in the Hilbert space.
