This paper is concerned with the characterization of all self-adjoint domains associated with two-interval even order singular C-symmetric differential operators in terms of boundary conditions. The previously known characterizations of Lagrange symmetric differential operators are a special case of this one.

For positive elliptic differential operators Δ, the asymptotic expansion of the heat trace tr(e-tΔ) and its related zeta function ζ(s, Δ) = tr(Δ-s) have numerous applications in geometry and physics. This article discusses the general nature of the boundary conditions that must be considered when there is a singular stratum, and presents three examples in which a choice of boundary conditions at the singularity must be made. The first example concerns the signature operator on a manifold with a singular stratum of conic type. The second concerns the "Zaremba problem" for a nonsingular manifold with smooth boundary, posing Dirichlet conditions on part of the boundary and Neumann conditions on the complement; the intersection of these two regions can be viewed as a singular stratum of conic type, and a boundary condition must be imposed along this stratum. The third example is a one-dimensional manifold where the operator at one end has a singularity like that in conic problems, and the choice of boundary conditions affects not just the residues at the poles of the zeta function, but also the very location of the poles

In this paper, the second-order symmetric Sturm-Liouville differential expressions $ \tau_1, \tau_2, \ldots, \tau_n $ with real coefficients are considered on the interval $ I = (a,b) $, $ - \infty \le a < b \le \infty $. It is shown that the characterization of singular self-adjoint boundary conditions involves the sesquilinear form associated with the product of Sturm-Liouville differential expressions and elements of the maximan domain of the product operators, and is an exact parallel of the regular case. This characterization is an extension of those obtained in [6], [8], [11-12], [14] and [15].
