 Gaussian number operator

The normalized Probabilists' Hermite polynomials diagonalize the Gaussian number operator with eigenvalues $n\ge 0$. Its self-adjoint closure has domain $\sum n^2|c_n{|}^2<\infty$. Polynomial truncations are dense for its graph norm. The semigroup $e^{-tN}$ is the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroup and its energy form is the Gaussian Dirichlet energy.
