Popis: We give some results about the essential self-adjointness of the Dirac operator $$ H = \sum\limits_{j = 1}^n {\alpha _j p_j } + m\left( x \right)\alpha _{n + 1} + V\left( x \right)I_N \left( {N = 2^{\left[ {\tfrac{{n + 1}} {2}} \right]} } \right), $$ on \({{\left[ {C_{0}^{\infty }\left( {{{R}^{n}}\backslash 0} \right)} \right]}^{N}} \), where the \({{\alpha }_{j}}\left( {j = 1,2,\cdot \cdot \cdot ,n} \right) \) are Dirac matrices and m(x) and V(x) are real-valued functions. We are mainly interested in a singularity of V(x) and m(x) near the origin which preserves the essential self-adjointness of H. As a result, if m = m(r) is spherically symmetric or, then we can permit a singularity of m and V which is stronger than that of the Coulomb potential.
