Given a symmetric linear transformation on a Hilbert space, a natural problem to consider is the characterization of its set of symmetric extensions. This problem is equivalent to the study of the partial isometric extensions of a fixed partial isometry. We provide a new function theoretic characterization of the set of all self-adjoint extensions of any symmetric linear transformation B with finite equal indices and inner Livšic characteristic function θB by constructing a bijection between the quotient of this set by a certain natural equivalence relation and the set of all contractive analytic functions φ which are greater or equal to θB.
