contents <p>We study one-dimensional radial Schrodinger-type operators on a bounded interval (0, R*) with a singular or steep boundary wall near r = R*. We separate two regimes. First, an ideal inverse-square wall V(r) >= C(R* - r)^{-2} with C > 3/4 is limit-point at the terminal radius. Second, a family of steep but finite collar barriers W_eta supported in [R* - eta, R*) with height m_eta satisfying m_eta eta -> infinity converges, in the Mosco / strong-resolvent sense, to the Dirichlet realisation on the bounded host interval. This yields convergence of each fixed low-lying eigenvalue to the Dirichlet value as the wall steepens. Finally, if the interior potential V_0 is bounded below by more than -pi^2/(R*)^2, then the Dirichlet operator has compact resolvent and strictly positive lowest eigenvalue. The ideal-wall endpoint theorem and the steep-collar reduction are logically separate results: the latter does not require the former.
