Domain characterization for Schrödinger operators with sub-quadratic singularity

Abstract: We characterize the domain of the Schr\"odinger operators $S=-\Delta+c|x|^{-\alpha}$ in $L^p(\mathbb{R}^N)$, with $0<\alpha<2$ and $c\in\mathbb{R}$. When $\alpha p< N$, the domain characterization is essentially known and can be proved using different tools, for instance kernel estimates and potentials in the Kato class or in the reverse H\"older class. However,the other cases seem not to be known, so far.In this paper, we give the explicit description of the domain of $S$ for all range of parameters $p,\alpha$ and $c$.
