In 1980 Michelsohn defined a differential operator on sections of the complex Clifford bundle over a compact K\"ahler manifold M . This operator is a differential and its Laplacian agrees with the Laplacian of the Dolbeault operator on…
Our recent arXiv preprints and published papers on the solution of the Riemann-Lanczos and Weyl-Lanczos problems have brought our attention on the importance of revisiting the algebraic structure of the Bianchi identities in Riemannian…
Using the recently discovered N=1 supersymmetric extension of the conformal fourth-order scalar operator (introduced originally by Fradkin and Tseytlin and also known as the "Paneitz operator" or "Riegert operator"), we derive a new…
We give an explicit and versatile parametrization of all positive selfadjoint extensions of a densely defined, closed, positive operator. In addition, we identify the Friedrichs extension by specifying the parameter to which it corresponds.…
For odd dimensional Poincar\'e-Einstein manifolds $(X^{n+1},g)$, we study the set of harmonic $k$-forms (for $k<\ndemi$) which are $C^m$ (with $m\in\nn$) on the conformal compactification $\bar{X}$ of $X$. This is infinite dimensional for…
Differential operators are widely used in geometry processing for problem domains like spectral shape analysis, data interpolation, parametrization and mapping, and meshing. In addition to the ubiquitous cotangent Laplacian, anisotropic…
We consider the space of polydifferential operators on n functions on symplectic manifolds invariant under symplectic automorphisms, whose study was initiated by Mathieu in 1995. Permutations of inputs yield an action of S_n, which extends…
In this paper the relativistic quantum mechanics is considered in the framework of the nonstandard synchronization scheme for clocks. Such a synchronization preserves Poincar{\'e} covariance but (at least formally) distinguishes an inertial…
The well known conformal covariance of the Dirac operator acting on spinor fields over a semi Riemannian spin manifold does not extend to powers thereof in general. For odd powers one has to add lower order curvature correction terms in…
The Dirichlet-to-Neumann map for differential forms on a Riemannian manifold with boundary is a generalization of the classical Dirichlet-to-Neumann map which arises in the problem of Electrical Impedance Tomography. We synthesize the two…
As it has been proven, the determination of general one-dimensional Schr\"odinger Hamiltonians having third-order differential ladder operators requires to solve the Painlev\'e IV equation. In this work, it will be shown that some specific…
On conformal manifolds of even dimension $n\geq 4$ we construct a family of new conformally invariant differential complexes. Each bundle in each of these complexes appears either in the de Rham complex or in its dual. Each of the new…

In this paper, we report on new results related to the existence of an adjoint for operators on separable Banach spaces and discuss a few interesting applications. (Some results are new even for Hilbert spaces.) Our first two applications…
A general invariant manifold theorem is needed to study the topological classes of smooth dynamical systems. These classes are often invariant under renormalization. The classical invariant manifold theorem cannot be applied, because the…
For an $n$-dimensional compact submanifold $M^n$ in the Euclidean space $\mathbf R^{N}$, we study estimates for eigenvalues of the Paneitz operator on $M^n$. Our estimates for eigenvalues are sharp.
For this quarter of century, differential operators in a lower dimensional submanifold embedded or immersed in real $n$-dimensional euclidean space $\EE^n$ have been studied as quantum mechanical models, which are realized as restriction of…
A new approach to the study of spectral asymmetry for systems of partial differential equations (PDEs) on closed manifolds was proposed in a recent series of papers by the first author and collaborator. They showed that information on…
INTRODUCTION This papers deals with partial differential equations of second order, linear, with constant and not constant coefficients, in two variables, which admit real characteristics. I face the study of PDEs with the mentality of the…
This article gives a fundamental discussion on variable coefficients, self-adjoint, formally partially hypoelliptic differential operators. A generalization of the results to pseudo differential operators, is given in a following article in…
