SynopsisFormulas are determined for the deficiency numbers of a formally symmetric ordinary differential operator with complex coefficients which have asymptotic expansions of a prescribed type on a half-axis. An implication of these formulas is that for any given positive integer there exists a formally symmetric ordinary differential operator whose deficiency numbers differ by that positive integer.
