✦ Synopsis
Investigation of the differential operators with the generalized coefficients having singular support on a disjoint set of points requires the consideration of the distribution theory with the set of discontinuous test functions. Such a distribution theory for test functions having discontinuity at one point is developed. A fourparameter family of Schrodinger operators, formed by the operators with singular potential, singular metrics and singular gauge field, is considered. It is proved that this family of singular interactions describes all possible selfadjoint extensions of the second derivative operator defined on the functions vanishing in a neighbourhood of the point. Approximation by operators with smooth coefficients is discussed.
