For a class of singular potentials, including the Coulomb potential (in three and less dimensions) and V(x) = g/x² with the coefficient g in a certain range (x being a space coordinate in one or more dimensions), the corresponding Schrödinger operator is not automatically self-adjoint on its natural...
