Friedrichs extensions for a class of singular discrete linear Hamiltonian systems

This paper is concerned with the characterizations of the Friedrichs extension for a class of singular discrete linear Hamiltonian systems. The existence of recessive solutions and the existence of the Friedrichs extension are proved under some conditions. The self-adjoint boundary conditions are obtained by applying the recessive solutions and then the characterization of the Friedrichs extension is obtained in terms of boundary conditions via linear independently recessive solutions.
