Let W be a finite dimensional representation of a linearly reductive group G over a field k. Motivated by their work on classical rings of invariants, Levasseur and Stafford asked whether the ring of invariants under G of the symmetric…
In their work on differential operators in positive characteristic, Smith and Van den Bergh define and study the derived functors of differential operators; they arise naturally as obstructions to differential operators reducing to positive…
Several definitions of differential operators on modules over noncommutative rings are discussed.
The main results of our paper deal with the lifting problem for multilinear differential operators between complexes of horizontal de Rham forms on the infinite jet bundle. We answer the question when does an n-multilinear differential…
In contrast with differential operators on modules over commutative and graded commutative rings, there is no satisfactory notion of a differential operator in noncommutative geometry.
A systematic exposition is given of the theory of invariant differential operators on a not necessarily reductive homogeneous space. This exposition is modelled on Helgason's treatment of the general reductive case and the special…
The ring $\text{Diff}_{\mathbf{h}}(n)$ of $\mathbf{h}$-deformed differential operators appears in the theory of reduction algebras. In this thesis, we construct the rings of generalized differential operators on the $\mathbf{h}$-deformed…
We describe the obstruction to decomposing in degrees $\leq p$ the de Rham complex of a smooth variety over a perfect field $k$ of characteristic $p$ that lifts over $W_2(k)$, and show that there exist liftable smooth projective varieties…
This paper deals with sheaves of differential operators on noncommutative algebras. The sheaves are defined by quotienting a the tensor algebra of vector fields (suitably deformed by a covariant derivative) to ensure zero curvature. As an…
This paper grew out of the author's work on arXiv:2504.18460. Differential operators in the sense of Grothendieck acting between modules over a commutative ring can be interpreted as torsion elements in the bimodule of all operators with…
Let ${\cal F}_\lambda$ be the space of tensor densities on ${\bf R}^n$ of degree $\lambda$ (or, equivalently, of conformal densities of degree $-\lambda{}n$) considered as a module over the Lie algebra $so(p+1,q+1)$. We classify…
We construct explicit differential operators on hermitian modular forms, extending methods developed for Siegel modular forms. These differential operators are closely related to the two-variable spherical pluriharmonic polynomials. We…
We construct the rings of generalized differential operators on the ${\bf h}$-deformed vector space of ${\bf gl}$-type. In contrast to the $q$-deformed vector space, where the ring of differential operators is unique up to an isomorphism,…
We study the ring of differential operators D(X) on the basic affine space X=G/U of a complex semisimple group G with maximal unipotent subgroup U. One of the main results shows that the cohomology group H^*(X,O_X) decomposes as a finite…
We give explicit descriptions of rings of differential operators of toric face rings in characteristic $0$. For quotients of normal affine semigroup rings by radical monomial ideals, we also identify which of their differential operators…
Let $k$ be an arbitrary field. We construct examples of regular local $k$-algebras $R$ (of positive dimension) for which the ring of differential operators $D_k(R)$ is trivial in the sense that it contains {\it no} operators of positive…
In this paper we develop a new approach for studying differential operators of an isolated singularity graded hypersurface ring $R$ defining a surface in affine three-space over a field of characteristic zero. With this method, we construct…
The algebraic notion of a differential operator on a module over a commutative ring is not extended to a module over a noncommutative ring.
In this paper we consider the solvability of pseudodifferential operators when the principal symbol vanishes of at least second order at a non-radial involutive manifold $\Sigma_2$. We shall assume that the subprincipal symbol is of…
