description Given a self-adjoint operator <i>A</i> in a Hilbert space <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mi mathvariant="script">H</mi></semantics></math></inline-formula>, we analyze its spectral behavior when it is expressed in terms of generalized eigenvectors. Using the formalism of Gel’fand distribution bases, we explore the conditions for the generalized eigenspaces to be one-dimensional, i.e., for <i>A</i> to have a simple spectrum.
