We set the spaces of potentials jf15jf2 2 and as follows Jf1 fl P SeZ oc PeZf0C 2 a P I ãe zfoc V flG zfoe Pg ZjU JS P I o V G the form JỂ fl V is closable on cs 5 2 a V I a P g Jf2 C a V is essentially self-adjoint on Co0 1 2 P I ã V sl i v_ is A-formbounded with relative bound less than 1 2 P I fl V G x2 V. is A-bounded with relative bound less than 1 .

The purpose of this note is two-fold. On one hand we prove that any self--adjoint Schrodinger operator Hịấ V is invariant under gauge transformations 2 - fl V2. On the other hand we apply the freedom of gauge transformations to the investigation of the essential spectrum of H a V and show that ơ. s 77 2 Ụ 0 oo under very mild conditions on the potentials 2 V .
