We prove that the realization $A_p$ in $L^p(\mathbb{R}^N),\,1<p<\infty$, of the elliptic operator $A=(1+|x|^{\alpha})\Delta+b|x|^{\alpha-1}\frac{x}{|x|}\cdot \nabla-c|x|^{\beta}$ with domain $D(A_p) =\{ u \in W^{2,p}(\mathbb{R}^N)\, |\, Au…

In this paper we study the asymptotic behavior of second-order uniformly elliptic operators on weighted Riemannian manifolds. They naturally emerge when studying spectral properties of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on families of manifolds…

We study the $L^1$-smoothing properties for a broad class of semigroups arising from the ground state transformation of Schr\"odinger semigroups with confining potentials associated with non-local L\'evy operators, for which (asymptotic)…

We consider here operators which are sum of (possibly) fractional derivatives, with (possibly different) order. The main constructive assumption is that the operator is of order~$2$ in one variable. By constructing an explicit barrier, we…

Given a symplectic manifold $M$, we may define an operad structure on the the spaces $\op^k$ of the Lagrangian submanifolds of $(\bar{M})^k\times M$ via symplectic reduction. If $M$ is also a symplectic groupoid, then its multiplication…

We study Schr\"odinger operators on $\mathbb{R}^2$ $$ H = \left(-\frac{\partial^2}{\partial x_1^2}\right)^{\alpha/2} + \left(-\frac{\partial^2}{\partial x_2^2}\right)^{\alpha/2} + V, $$ for $\alpha \in (0,2)$ and some sufficiently regular,…

This undergraduate thesis is concerned with developing the tools of differential geometry and semiclassical analysis needed to understand the the quantum ergodicity theorem of Schnirelman (1974), Zelditch (1987), and Colin de Verdi\`ere…

We prove a boundary Harnack inequality for nonlocal elliptic operators $L$ in non-divergence form with bounded measurable coefficients. Namely, our main result establishes that if $Lu_1=Lu_2=0$ in $\Omega\cap B_1$, $u_1=u_2=0$ in…

In one-sided Chord-Arc Domains $\Omega$, we demonstrate that the $A_\infty$-absolute continuity of the elliptic measure with respect to the surface measure remains stable under $L^2$ Carleson perturbations. This stability holds provided…

We show that ergodic flows in noncommutative fully symmetric spaces (associated with a semifinite von Neumann algebra) generated by continuous semigroups of positive Dunford-Schwartz operators and modulated by bounded Besicovitch almost…

We obtain the inequalities of the form $$\int_{\Omega}|\nabla u(x)|^2h(u(x))\,{\rm d} x\leq C\int_{\Omega} \left( \sqrt{ |P u(x)||{\cal T}_{H}(u(x))|}\right)^{2}h(u(x))\,{\rm d} x +\Theta,$$ where $\Omega\subset \mathbf{R}^n$ is a bounded…

We examine high energy eigenfunctions for the Dirichlet Laplacian on domains where the billiard flow exhibits mixed dynamical behavior. (More generally, we consider semiclassical Schrodinger operators with mixed assumptions on the…

This paper studies Liouville properties for viscosity sub- and supersolutions of fully nonlinear degenerate elliptic PDEs, under the main assumption that the operator has a family of generalized subunit vector fields that satisfy the…

We analyse certain degenerate infinite dimensional sub-elliptic generators, and obtain estimates on the long-time behaviour of the corresponding Markov semigroups that describe a certain model of heat conduction. In particular, we establish…

Let $-\im\Lie_\T$ (essentially Lie derivative with respect to $\T$, a smooth nowhere zero real vector field) and $P$ be commuting differential operators, respectively of orders 1 and $m\geq 1$, the latter formally normal, both acting on…

An elliptic curve $E$ defined over a $p$-adic field $K$ with a $p$-isogeny $\phi:E\rightarrow E^\prime$ comes equipped with an invariant $\alpha_{\phi/K}$ that measures the valuation of the leading term of the formal group homomorphism…

The spectral properties of a class of non-selfadjoint second order elliptic operators with indefinite weight functions on unbounded domains $\Omega$ are investigated. It is shown that under an abstract regularity assumption the nonreal…

We define H\"older classes $\Lambda_\alpha$ associated with a Markovian semigroup and prove that, when the semigroup satisfies the $\Gamma^2 \geq 0$ condition, the Riesz transforms are bounded between the H\"older classes. As a consequence,…
