We derive necessary and sufficient conditions for a one-dimensional periodic Schrödinger (i.e., Hill) operator H=d2/dx2+V in L2(R) to be a spectral operator of scalar type. The conditions demonstrate the remarkable fact that the property of a Hill operator being a spectral operator is independent of smoothness (or even analyticity) properties of the potential V.

Nous dérivons des conditions nécessaires et suffisantes pour qur l'opérateur de Schrödinger (i.e., l'opérateur de Hill) H=d2/dx2+V dans L2(R) soit un opérateur spectral de type scalaire. Les conditions montrent que cette propriétés ne dépend pas des propriétés différentielles (ou analytiques) du potentiel V.
