We suggest a new representation of Maslov's canonical operator in a neighborhood of the caustics using a special class of coordinate systems ("eikonal coordinates") on Lagrangian manifolds. The specific features of the two-dimensional case…
The paper develops a symbolic calculus for Fourier integral operators associated with canonical transformations.
We develop an algorithm for the computation of general Fourier integral operators associated with canonical graphs. The algorithm is based on dyadic parabolic decomposition using wave packets and enables the discrete approximate evaluation…
In this paper we introduce and study a two-parameter family of integral operators on the Fock space $F^2(C)$. We determine exactly when these operators are bounded and when they are unitary. We show that, under the Bargmann transform, these…
The Maslov index of a periodic orbit is an important piece in the semiclassical quantization of non-integrable systems, while almost all existing techniques that lead to a rigorous calculation of this index are elaborate and mathematically…
We mostly survey results concerning the $L^2$ boundedness of oscillatory and Fourier integral operators. This article does not intend to give a broad overview; it mainly focusses on a few topics directly related to the work of the authors.
Sharp L^2 estimates for oscillatory integral operators and Fourier integral operators associated with canonical relations having two-sided cusp or one-sided swallowtail singularities are obtained.
A quasiclassical approximation is constructed to describe the eigenvalues of the magnetic Laplacian on a compact Riemannian manifold in the case when the magnetic field is not given by an exact 2-form. For this, the multidimensional WKB…
We consider elliptic operators associated with discrete groups of quantized canonical transformations. In order to be able to apply results from algebraic index theory, we define the localized algebraic index of the complete symbol of an…
As announced in [12], we develop a calculus of Fourier integral G-operators on any Lie groupoid G. For that purpose, we study convolability and invertibility of Lagrangian conic submanifolds of the symplectic groupoid T * G. We also…
Kashiwara defined the Maslov index (associated to a collection of Lagrangian subspaces of a symplectic vector space over a field F) as a class in the Witt group W(F) of quadratic forms. We construct a canonical quadratic vector space in…
In general the composition of Fourier integral operators (FIOs) need not be an FIO. Motivated by the problem of linearized seismic inversion in the presence of cusp caustics for the background sound speed, we consider FIOs whose canonical…
We investigate an infinite dimensional analog of the theory of Lagrangian manifolds with complex germs. To such a manifold we assign a canonical operator that depends on creation and annihilation operators. This operator is by definition…
The representation of the resolvent as an integral operator, the $m$ function, and the associated spectral representation are fundamental topics in the spectral theory of self-adjoint ordinary differential operators. Versions of these are…
This article gives explicit integral formulas for the so-called generalized metaplectic operators, i.e. Fourier integral operators (FIOs) of Schr\"odinger type, having a symplectic matrix as canonical transformation. These integrals are…
We give a manifestly invariant definition of the Lagrangian complex germ with the minimal degree of accuracy required to define the canonical operator. The equivalence with the traditional definition is proved, and the canonical operator is…
We consider special classes of linear bounded operators in Banach spaces and suggest certain operator variant of symbolic calculus. It permits to formulate an index theorem and to describe Fredholm properties of elliptic pseudo-differential…
We obtain new estimates for a class of oscillatory integral operators with folding canonical relations satisfying a curvature condition. The main lower bounds showing sharpness are proved using Kakeya set constructions. As a special case of…
The canonical treatment of dynamic systems with manifest Lagrangian constraints proposed by Berezin is applied to concrete examples: a special Lagrangian linear in velocities, relativistic particles in proper time gauge, a relativistic…
I study a special type of canonical relations given by twisted conormal bundles, construct a "subcategory" of the symplectic "category" out of these canonical relations and quantize them into semi-classical Fourier integral operators.…
