Abstract
In this paper, the problem of self-adjointness of the product of two differential operators is considered. A number of results concerning self-adjointness of the productL 2 L 1 of two second-order self-adjoint differential operators are obtained by using the general construction theory of self-adjoint extensions of ordinary differential operators.
