Abstract
A special case of our extension question for continuous positive definite (p.d.) functions on a fixed finite interval \(\left \vert x\right \vert < a\) in \(\mathbb{R}\) is the following: It offers a spectral model representation for ALL Hermitian operators with dense domain in Hilbert space and with deficiency indices \(\left (1,1\right )\). (See e.g., [vN32a, Kre46, DS88, AG93, Nel69].)
