Abstract

Consider a family of Sturm-Liouville operators H θ on the half-axis defined as

$${{H}_{\theta }}u = - u'' + q(x)u 0 \leqslant x < \infty $$

with the boundary condition

$$ u(0)\cos \theta + u'(0)\sin \theta = 0 0 \leqslant \theta < \pi $$

and the limit point case at infinity. We show that it is possible for all H θ to have dense absolutely continuous and dense singular spectrum. The construction is based on integral representations of Pick functions in the upper half-plane. We also discuss applications to the Krein spectral shift.
