AbstractHigher even order linear differential operators with unbounded coefficients are studied. For these operators the eigenvalues of the characteristic polynomials fall into distinct classes or clusters. Consequently the spectral properties, deficiency indices and spectra, of the underlying differential operators are superpositions of the contributions from the individual clusters. These results are based on a quantitative improvement of Levinson's Theorem. Our methods will also be applicable to other classes of linear differential operators.
