A linear different operator L is called weakly hypoelliptic if any local solution u of Lu=0 is smooth. We allow for systems, that is, the coefficients may be matrices, not necessarily of square size. This is a huge class of important…

We consider the vector space of $n \times n$ matrices over $\mathbb C$, Fermi operators and operators constructed from these matrices and Fermi operators. The properties of these operators are studied with respect to the underlying…

We study the adjointness problem for the closed extensions of a general b-elliptic operator A in x^{-\nu}Diff^m_b(M;E), \nu>0, initially defined as an unbounded operator A:C_c^\infty(M;E)\subset x^\mu L^2_b(M;E)\to x^\mu L^2_b(M;E), \mu \in…

In this paper we give several global characterisations of the Hormander class of pseudo-differential operators on compact Lie groups. The result is applied to give criteria for the ellipticity and the global hypoellipticity of…

In this paper we define $\lambda$-hyponormal operators on an infinite dimensional Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ and find a class of $\lambda$-hyponormal operators that can not be hypercyclic. Also, we study closedness of range and…

In this manuscript we deal with elliptic equations with superlinear first order terms in divergence form of the following type \[ -\mbox{div}(M(x)\nabla u)= -\mbox{div}(h(u)E(x))+f(x), \] where $M$ is a bounded elliptic matrix, the vector…

The Hopf Lemma for second order elliptic operators is proved to hold in domains with $C^{1,\alpha}$, and even less regular, boundaries. It need not hold for $C^1$ boundaries. Corresponding results are proved for second order parabolic…

We show that a second-order elliptic differential operator $P$, on any manifold $M$, has closed range in $C^\infty(M)$. If $M$ has no compact components, then $P$ is surjective on $C^\infty(M)$. Applications to Helmholtz decomposition are…
