Abstract
The main goal of this paper is to provide a complete description of the operator solutions (eventually multivalued) of the (multivalued) operator equation \(A^{*}A = \lambda A^{n}\), where n is a positive integer, A is a closed multivalued linear operator (a closed linear relation) on a complex Hilbert space \({{\mathfrak {H}}}\) and \(\lambda \) is a complex number.
