• Abstract: We study a family of Jacobi operators in which the diagonal entries are multiplied by a coupling parameter $λ\geq0$. Under suitable conditions, the operator is self-adjoint for every $λ>0$, while the formal limit at $λ=0$ is a symmetric Jacobi operator admitting a one-parameter family of self-adjoint extensions. A central ingredient of our analysis is the derivation of uniform bounds for square-summable generalized eigenvectors in the small-$λ$ regime, which combines discrete WKB methods with Airy-function asymptotics. Using these estimates, we analyze the limiting behavior $λ\to0$ in the strong resolvent sense, proving that for every sequence $λ_j\to0$ one can extract a subsequence along which the corresponding Jacobi operators converge to some self-adjoint extension of the limiting operator; conversely, every such extension can be obtained in this way. We call this behavior an essentially singular limit, by analogy with essential singularities in complex analysis. As an application, we study higher-order squeezing operators arising in quantum optics. Using the connection with Jacobi operators, we show that when the relative strength of the free-field term tends to zero, different self-adjoint extensions of the squeezing operator are selected along different sequences. In particular, this limit does not single out a physically distinguished self-adjoint extension, but instead identifies a distinguished subclass of extensions compatible with the underlying symmetry.
