By using thisrelationship, we prove that if d = 0, then the systems of delta-functions $\bigl\{ \delta (x y_j), y_j \in Y \bigr\} $ and their derivatives$\bigl\{ \delta \prime (x y_j), y_j \in Y \bigr\} $ do not form Riesz bases in the closures of their linear spans in the Sobolev spaces $W^1_2 (R),\; W^2_2 (R)$ but, conversely, form these bases in the case where $d > 0$. We also present the description of the Friedrichs andKrein extensions and prove their transversality. Moreover, the construction of a basis boundary triple and the descriptionof all nonnegative selfadjoint extensions of the operator $A\prime$ are proposed. ER -
