Abstract
In many examples of de Branges spaces symmetry appears naturally. Presence of symmetry gives rise to a decomposition of the space into two parts, the ‘even’ and the ‘odd’ part, which themselves can be regarded as de Branges spaces. The converse question is to decide whether a given space is the ‘even’ part or the ‘odd’ part of some symmetric space, and, if yes, to describe the totality of all such symmetric spaces. We consider this question in an indefinite (almost Pontryagin space) setting, and give a complete answer. Interestingly, it turns out that the answers for the ‘even’ and ‘odd’ cases read quite differently; the latter is significantly more complex.
