We consider the operator ${\mathcal A}_h=-\Delta+iV$ in the semi-classical $h\rightarrow 0$, where $V$ is a smooth real potential with no critical points. We obtain both the left margin of the spectrum, as well as resolvent estimates on the…
We consider second-order partial differential operators $H$ in divergence form on $\Ri^d$ with a positive-semidefinite, symmetric, matrix $C$ of real $L_\infty$-coefficients and establish that $H$ is strongly elliptic if and only if the…
For $2a$-order strongly elliptic operators $P$ generalizing $(-\Delta )^a$, $0<a<1$, the treatment of the homogeneous Dirichlet problem on a bounded open set $\Omega \subset R^n$ by pseudodifferential methods, has been extended in a recent…
Let $\Omega\subset\mathbb{C}^m$ be a bounded pseudoconvex domain with smooth boundary. For each $k\in\mathbb{N}$, we give a sufficient condition to estimate the $\bar\partial$-Neumann operator in the Sobolev space $W^k(\Omega)$. The key…

Consider a non-doubling manifold with ends $M = \mathfrak{R}^{n}\sharp\, {\mathbb R}^{m}$ where $\mathfrak{R}^n=\mathbb{R}^n\times \mathbb{S}^{m-n}$ for $m> n \ge 3$. We say that an operator $L$ has a generalised Poisson kernel if $\sqrt{…
The aim of this paper is to obtain optimal estimates for the first Robin eigenvalue of the anisotropic $p$-Laplace operator, namely: \begin{equation*} \lambda_1(\beta,\Omega)=\min_{\psi\in W^{1,p}(\Omega)\setminus\{0\} }…
If $a$ is a densely defined sectorial form in a Hilbert space which is possibly not closable, then we associate in a natural way a holomorphic semigroup generator with $a$. This allows us to remove in several theorems of semigroup theory…
