We consider the index problem of certain boundary groupoids of the form $\mathcal{G} = M _0 \times M _0 \cup \mathbb{R}^q \times M _1 \times M _1$. Since it has been shown that for the case that $q \geq 3$ is odd, $K _0 (C^* (\mathcal{G}))…
We show the completeness of the system of generalized eigenfunctions of closed extensions of elliptic cone operators under suitable conditions on the symbols.
We study a system of pseudodifferential equations that is elliptic in the sense of Petrovskii on a closed compact smooth manifold. We prove that the operator generated by the system is Fredholm one on a refined two-sided scale of the…
We study elliptic and parabolic problems governed by the singular elliptic operators $$ \mathcal L=y^{\alpha_1}\mbox{Tr }\left(QD^2_x\right)+2y^{\frac{\alpha_1+\alpha_2}{2}}q\cdot \nabla_xD_y+\gamma y^{\alpha_2}…
On a Riemannian manifold with a smooth function $f: M\to \mathbb{R}$, we consider the linearization of the Perelman scalar curvature $\mathcal{R}$ and its $L^2$-formal adjoint operator $\delta\mathcal{R}^*$. A manifold endowed with a metric…
This paper is a self-contained presentation of certain aspects of the theory of weighted Sobolev spaces and elliptic operators on non-compact Riemannian manifolds. Specifically, we discuss (i) the standard and weighted Sobolev Embedding…
We show that layer potential groupoids for conical domains constructed in an earlier paper (Carvalho-Qiao, Central European J. Math., 2013) are Fredholm groupoids, which enables us to deal with many analysis problems on singular spaces in a…
For an arbitrary Riemannian manifold $X$ and Hermitian vector bundles $E$ and $F$ over $X$ we define the notion of the normal symbol of a pseudodifferential operator $P$ from $E$ to $F$. The normal symbol of $P$ is a certain smooth function…
Wiener-Hopf plus Hankel operators acting between Lebesgue spaces on the real line are studied in view of their invertibility, one sided-invertibility, Fredholm, and semi-Fredholm properties. This is done in two different cases: (i) when the…
In this paper we study the local behavior of a solution to second order elliptic operators with sharp singular coefficients in lower order terms. One of the main results is the bound on the vanishing order of the solution, which is a…
We prove local bounds on the amplitude of eigen- functions of complex constant-coefficient elliptic operators with a smooth potential on an arbitrary open subset of \R^d by estimating it in terms of the number of solutions of a diophantine…
We demonstrate a method of associating the principal symbol at a $K$-point with a linear differential operator acting between modules over a commutative algebra, and we use it to define the ellipticity of a linear differential operator in a…
We study bounded operators defined in terms of the regular representations of the $C^*$-algebra of an amenable, Hausdorff, second countable locally compact groupoid endowed with a continuous $2$-cocycle. We concentrate on spectral…
We revisit an argument due to Lesch (Topology 32 (1993), no. 3, 611-623) for proving the cobordism invariance of the index of Dirac operators on even-dimensional closed manifolds and combine this with recent work by the author (New York J.…
In this work characterizations of Fredholm pairs and chains of Hilbert space operators are given. Following a well-known idea of several variable operator theory in Hilbert spaces, the aforementioned objects are characterized in terms of…
We study non-elliptic quadratic differential operators. Quadratic differential operators are non-selfadjoint operators defined in the Weyl quantization by complex-valued quadratic symbols. When the real part of their Weyl symbols is a…
We study the pseudospectrum of a class of non-selfadjoint differential operators. Our work consists in a detailed study of the microlocal properties, which rule the spectral stability or instability phenomena appearing under small…
We review an approach to the index theory of operator algebras associated with Lie groups of quantized canonical transformations. Main points are an ellipticity condition ensuring the Fredholm property, the definition of localized algebraic…
Let L^\star be a filtered algebra of abstract pseudodifferential operators equipped with a notion of ellipticity, and T^\star be a subalgebra of operators of the form P_1AP_0, where P_0 and P_1 are two projections. The elements of L^\star…
We shall introduce the principal symbol for Euler-Lagrange operators and use them to charac- terise well-posed initial value problems. We shall clarify how constraints can arise in Lagrangian covariant theories by extending the standard…
