β¦ Synopsis
We find necessary and sufficient conditions to guarantee the existence resp. coexistence of linear independent periodic zero-elements of period m~, m β’ IN, of Hill's differential operator D2 + Q, with co being the minimal period of the function Q. These conditions enable us to construct an unbounded self-adjoint operator which only has periodic eigenfunctions with prescribed period.

## Abstract In 1980, Gasymov showed that nonβselfβadjoint Hill operators with complexβvalued periodic potentials of the type $ V(x) = \sum ^{\infty} \_{k=1} a\_{k} e^{ikx} $, with $ \sum ^{\infty} \_{k=1} \vert a\_{k} \vert < \infty $, have spectra [0, β). In this note, we provide an alternative an
