A fundamental result in pseudodifferential theory is the Calder\'on-Vaillancourt theorem, which states that a pseudodifferential operator defined from a H\"ormander symbol of order $0$ defines a bounded operator on $L^2(\mathbb{R}^d)$. In…

In this paper, we establish results about operators similar to their adjoints. This is carried out in the setting of bounded and also unbounded operators on a Hilbert space. Among the results, we prove that an unbounded closed operator…

We study the most general class of eigenfunction expansions for abstract normal operators with pure point spectrum in a complex Hilbert space. We find sufficient conditions for such expansions to be unconditionally convergent in spaces with…

The abstract theory of self-adjoint extensions of symmetric operators is used to construct self-adjoint realizations of a second-order elliptic operator on $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ with linear boundary conditions on (a relatively open part of) a…

The notion of quasi boundary triples and their Weyl functions from extension theory of symmetric operators is extended to the general framework of adjoint pairs of operators under minimal conditions on the boundary maps. With the help of…

We initiate a systematic study of natural differential operators in Riemannian geometry whose leading symbols are not of Laplace type. In particular, we define a discrete leading symbol for such operators which may be computed pointwise, or…

Building on techniques used in the case of the disc, we use a variety of methods to develop formulae for the adjoints of composition operators on Hardy spaces of the upper half-plane. In doing so, we prove a slight extension of a known…

Let us consider the set S^A(\R^n) of rapidly decreasing functions G:\R^n \to A, where A is a separable C^*-algebra. We prove a version of the Calder\'on-Vaillancourt theorem for pseudodifferential operators acting on S^A(\R^n) whose symbol…

We formulate the issue of minimality of self-adjoint operators on a Hilbert space as a semi-definite problem, linking the work by Overton in [1] to the characterization of minimal hermitian matrices. This motivates us to investigate the…

For an unbounded self-adjoint operator D on a Hilbert space H and a bounded operator a on H we say that a is weakly D-differentiable if for any pair of vectors x, y in H the function <exp(itD) a exp(-itD)x, y> is differentiable at t =0. We…

In this paper, which is a follow-up of our first paper "Normal forms for ordinary differential operators, I", we extend the theory of normal forms for non-commuting operators, and obtain as an application a commutativity criterion for…

A famous theorem due to Weyl and von Neumann asserts that two bounded self-adjoint operators are unitarily equivalent modulo the compacts, if and only if their essential spectrum agree. The above theorem does not hold for unbounded…

We study the problem when an almost commuting $n$-tuple self-adjoint operators in an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space $H$ is close to an $n$-tuple of commuting self-adjoint operators on $H.$ We give an affirmative answer to the…

We prove explicitly that to every discrete, semibounded Hamiltonian with constant degeneracy and with finite sum of the squares of the reciprocal of its eigenvalues and whose eigenvectors span the entire Hilbert space there exists a…

The main result is that every pseudo-differential operator of type 1,1 and order $d$ is continuous from the Triebel--Lizorkin space $F^d_{p,1}$ to $L_p$, $1\le p<\infty$, and that this is optimal within the Besov and Triebel--Lizorkin…

As main result, we show that a pseudodifferential operator in the Weyl calculus, whose symbol has compact Fourier support, lies in the Schatten class $\mathcal S^p$ if and only if its symbol lies in the Lebesgue space $L^p$ on phase space.…

On the unit ball B^n we consider the weighted Bergman spaces H_\lambda and their Toeplitz operators with bounded symbols. It is known from our previous work that if a closed subgroup H of \widetilde{\SU(n,1)} has a multiplicity-free…

Consider an elliptic self-adjoint pseudodifferential operator $A$ acting on $m$-columns of half-densities on a closed manifold $M$, whose principal symbol is assumed to have simple eigenvalues. We show existence and uniqueness of $m$…

This text is a slightly expanded version of my 6 hour mini-course at the PDE-meeting in \'Evian-les-Bains in June 2009. The first part gives some old and recent results on non-self-adjoint differential operators. The second part is devoted…

In this paper spectral theorems for not necessarily continuous normal and self-adjoint random operators on a complex separable Hilbert space are proved.
