We consider the spectral structure of indefinite second order boundary-value problems on graphs. A variational formulation for such boundary-value problems on graphs is given and we obtain both full and half-range completeness results. This…
We consider the boundary value problems (BVPs) for linear secondorder ODEs with a strongly positive operator coefficient in a Banach space. The solutions are given in the form of the infinite series by means of the Cayley transform of the…
Let $M$ be smooth $n$-dimensional manifold, fibered over a $k$-dimensional submanifold $B$ as $\pi:M \to B$, and $\vartheta \in \Lambda^k (M)$; one can consider the functional on sections $\phi$ of the bundle $\pi$ defined by $\int_D \phi^*…
In this short note we review some facts about elliptic differential operators on Riemannian manifolds.
These notes are concerned with the $L^{2}$-Sobolev theory of the complex Green operator on pseudoconvex, oriented, bounded and closed CR--submanifolds of $\mathbb{C}^{n}$ of hypersurface type. This class of submanifolds generalizes that of…
We continue our program initiated in [arXiv:0912.4261] to consider supersymmetric surface operators in a topologically-twisted N=2 pure SU(2) gauge theory, and apply them to the study of four-manifolds and related invariants. Elegant…
Given a smooth manifold $M$ (with or without boundary), in this paper we study the regularisation of traces for the global pseudo-differential calculus in the context of non-harmonic analysis. Indeed, using the global pseudo-differential…
In this paper, we explore the existence of pluricomplex Green functions for Stein manifolds from a functional analysis point of view. For a Stein manifold $M$, we will denote by $O(M)$ the Fr\'echet space of analytic functions on $M$…
Let $M$ be a smooth manifold of dimension $2n$, and let $O_{M}$ be the dense open subbundle in $\wedge^{2}T^{\ast}M$ of $2$-covectors of maximal rank. The algebra of $\operatorname*{Diff}M$-invariant smooth functions of first order on…
This note is a description of some of the results obtained by the authors in connection with the problem in the title. These, discussed following a summary of background material concerning wedge differential operators, consist of the…
We study a Dirichlet boundary value problem associated to an anisotropic differential operator on a smooth bounded of $\Bbb R^N$. Our main result establishes the existence of at least two different non-negative solutions, provided a certain…
Solvability and smoothness of generalized solutions to boundary value problems for not self-adjoint differential-difference equations are studied. Necessary and sufficient conditions of Fredholmian solvability (with index zero) are…
We prove existence results for Dirichlet boundary value problems for equations of the type \begin{align*} \left( \Phi(k(t) x'(t) ) \right)' = f(t, x(t) , x'(t) ) \qquad \text{for a.e. } t \in I:=[0,T] , \end{align*} where $\Phi : J \to…
We find the precise growth of some invariant metrics near a point on the boundary of a domain where the Levi form has at least one negative eigenvalue. We also introduce a new invariant pseudometric which is convenient in this context, and…
We study a nonlinear Neumann boundary value problem associated to a nonhomogeneous differential operator. Taking into account the competition between the nonlinearity and the bifurcation parameter, we establish sufficient conditions for the…
These lecture notes for a graduate course cover generalized derivative concepts useful in deriving necessary optimality conditions and numerical algorithms for nondifferentiable optimization problems in inverse problems, imaging, and…
The paper presents a first step towards a family index theorem for classical self-adjoint boundary value problems. We address here the simplest non-trivial case of manifolds with boundary, namely the case of two-dimensional manifolds. The…
We introduce a proximal subdifferential and develop a calculus for nonsmooth functions defined on any Riemannian manifold $M$. We give several applications of this theory, concerning: 1) differentiability and geometrical properties of the…
We prove an implicit function theorem for functions on infinite-dimensional Banach manifolds, invariant under the (local) action of a finite dimensional Lie group. Motivated by some geometric variational problems, we consider group actions…
This article is a follow up of the previous article of the authors on the analytic surgery of eta- and rho-invariants. We investigate in detail the (Atiyah-Patodi-Singer)-rho-invariant for manifolds with boundary. First we generalize the…
