Let $M$ be an $n$-dimensional manifold, $V$ the space of a representation $\rho: GL(n)\longrightarrow GL(V)$. Locally, let $T(V)$ be the space of sections of the tensor bundle with fiber $V$ over a sufficiently small open set $U\subset M$,…
In this paper we classify the symbols of the linear differential operators of order $k$, which act from the module $C^\infty(\xi)$ to the module $C^\infty(\xi^t)$, where $\xi\colon E(\xi)\to M$ is vector bundle over the smooth manifold $M$,…
We give an index formula for the class of all *-maximally hypoelliptic differential operators on any closed manifold with vector bundle coefficients, generalising previous index formulas by Atiyah-Singer and van Erp. Using this formula, we…
We study differential invariants of the third order linear differential operators and use them to find conditions for equivalence of differential operators acting in line bundles on two dimensional manifolds with respect to groups of…
Generalizing the algebra of motion-invariant differential operators on a symmetric space we study invariant operators on equivariant vector bundles. We show that the eigenequation is equivalent to the corresponding eigenequation with…
Indicial operators are model operators associated to an elliptic differential operator near a corner singularity on a stratified manifold. These model operators are defined on generalized tangent cone configurations and exhibit a natural…
We develop elliptic theory of operators associated with a diffeomorphism of a closed smooth manifold. The aim of the present paper is to obtain an index formula for such operators in terms of topological invariants of the manifold and of…
We obtain a classification of elliptic operators modulo stable homotopy on manifolds with edges (this is in some sense the simplest class of manifolds with nonisolated singularities). We show that the operators are classified by the…
We study the eta invariants of compact flat spin manifolds of dimension n with holonomy group cyclic of odd prime order p. We find explicit expressions for the twisted and relative eta invariants and show that the reduced eta invariant is…
We define the gauge-equivariant index of a family of elliptic operators invariant with respect to the free action of a family $\GR \to B$ of Lie groups (these families are called ``gauge-invariant families'' in what follows). If the fibers…
In this paper we develop the functional calculus for elliptic operators on compact Lie groups without the assumption that the operator is a classical pseudo-differential operator. Consequently, we provide a symbolic descriptions of complex…
We give a classification of $1^{st}$ order invariant differential operators acting between sections of certain bundles associated to Cartan geometries of the so called metaplectic contact projective type. These bundles are associated via…
The elements of the class of non-homogeneous differential operators which are based on the same vector field, when viewed as acting on appropriate Hilbert spaces, are shown to be isomorphic to each other. It shown that the replacement of a…
Spectrum of a certain class of first order conformally invariant operators on the sphere is explicitly computed. The class contains the (elliptic verions of) Rarita-Schwinger operator and its higher spin analogues.
Scalar relative invariants play an important role in the theory of group actions on a manifold as their zero sets are invariant hypersurfaces. Relative invariants are central in many applications, where they often are treated locally since…
There is a certain family of conformally invariant first order elliptic operators on Riemannian spin manifold which include Dirac operator as its first and simplest member. Their general definition is given and their basic properties are…
