Let $P$ be a classical pseudodifferential operator of complex order $m$ on an $n$-dimensional smooth manifold $\Omega_1$. For the truncation $P_\Omega$ to a smooth subset $\Omega$ there is a well-known theory of boundary value problems when…

A classical result of Sz.-Nagy asserts that a Hilbert space contraction operator $T$ can be dilated to a unitary $\cU$. A more general multivariable setting for these ideas is the setup where (i) the unit disk is replaced by a domain…

We consider the $2m$-th order elliptic boundary value problem $Lu=f(x,u)$ on a bounded smooth domain $\Omega$ in $R^N$ with Dirichlet boundary conditions. The operator $L$ is a uniformly elliptic operator of order $2m$. We assume that for…
The DT-operators are introduced, one for every pair (\mu,c) consisting of a compactly supported Borel probability measure \mu on the complex plane and a constant c>0. These are operators on Hilbert space that are defined as limits in…
Let $H$ be a Schr\"odinger operator defined on a noncompact Riemannian manifold $\Omega$, and let $W\in L^\infty(\Omega;\mathbb{R})$. Suppose that the operator $H+W$ is critical in $\Omega$, and let $\varphi$ be the corresponding Agmon…
We prove that the realization $A_p$ in $L^p(\mathbb{R}^N),\,1<p<\infty$, of the Schr\"odinger type operator $A=(1+|x|^{\alpha})\Delta-|x|^{\beta}$ with domain $D(A_p)=\{u\in W^{2,p}(\mathbb{R}^N): Au\in L^p(\mathbb{R}^N)\}$ generates a…
In this paper we consider the fourth order operators A1u := (au")" and A2u := au"" in divergence form and non divergence form, respectively, where a, defined in [0, 1] with values in R+, degenerates in an interior point of the interval.…
We study the regularity of minimizers of the functional $\mathcal E(u):= [u]_{H^s(\Omega)}^2 +\int_\Omega fu$. This corresponds to understanding solutions for the regional fractional Laplacian in $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^N$. More precisely,…
We study solutions to $Lu=f$ in $\Omega\subset\mathbb R^n$, being $L$ the generator of any, possibly non-symmetric, stable L\'evy process. On the one hand, we study the regularity of solutions to $Lu=f$ in $\Omega$, $u=0$ in $\Omega^c$, in…

We study a class of integral functionals known as nonlocal perimeters, which, intuitively, express a weighted interaction between a set and its complement. The weight is provided by a positive kernel K, which might be singular. In the first…
