Let $R$ be the regular region of an almost-Riemannian manifold. Is the Laplace–Beltrami operator $\Delta_g$, initially defined on $C_c^\infty(R)$, essentially self-adjoint on $L^2(R,\mu_g)$? In particular, is this true for every real-analytic two-dimensional almost-Riemannian structure without tangency points?

[Discussion #4 unrefereed claim, 2026-09-29] I have released an unrefereed preprint, **Essential Self-Adjointness of the Laplace–Beltrami Operator for a Family of Non-Regular Almost-Riemannian Structures** (Alper Ferudun, Mercury Software GmbH). (https://zenodo.org/records/23041946)

CFKRS Formula for Shifted Zeta Function Moments
The CFKRS conjecture predicts an asymptotic formula for smoothed averages of products of zeta-functions with small complex shifts: the main term is the sum of all equal-cardinality swap terms, with Dirichlet-series factor $B(C,D)=\sum_{n\geq 1}\tau_C(n)\tau_D(n)/n$, and an error $O(T^{1-\delta})$ as $T\to\infty$.
