We formulate, for any Lie group G acting isometrically on a manifold M, the general notion of a G-equivariant elliptic operator that is invertible outside of a G-cocompact subset of M. We prove a version of the Rellich lemma for this…
In this note, we give a generalization of the inversion formulas of Pestov-Uhlmann for the geodesic ray transform of functions and vector fields on simple 2-dimensional manifolds of constant curvature. The inversion formulas given here hold…
We consider the existence of invariant curves of real analytic reversible mappings which are quasi-periodic in the angle variables. By the normal form theorem, we prove that under some assumptions, the original mapping is changed into its…
We develop a general regulated volume expansion for the volume of a manifold with boundary whose measure is suitably singular along a separating hypersurface. The expansion is shown to have a regulator independent anomaly term and a…
This paper demonstrates the power of the calculus developed in the two previous parts of the series for all real forms of the almost Hermitian symmetric structures on smooth manifolds, including e.g. conformal Riemannian and almost…
We show that, on a standard non-atomic probability space, invertible measure-preserving transformations form a dense $G_\delta$ subset of the space of all measure-preserving transformations endowed with the strong (=weak) operator topology.…
The work develops further the theory of the following inversion problem, which plays the central role in the rapidly developing area of thermoacoustic tomography and has intimate connections with PDEs and integral geometry: {\it Reconstruct…
We present two range characterizations for the attenuated geodesic X-ray transform defined on pairs of functions and one-forms on simple surfaces. Such characterizations are based on first isolating the range over sums of functions and…
In this paper we consider an inverse problem of determining a minimal surface embedded in a Riemannian manifold. We show under a topological condition that if $\Sigma$ is a $2$-dimensional embedded minimal surface, then the knowledge of the…
We study a generalized boundary rigidity problem, which investigates whether the areas of embedded minimal surfaces can uniquely determine a Riemannian manifold with boundary. We prove that for a conformal perturbation of an analytic metric…
Under a convexity assumption on the boundary we solve a local inverse problem, namely we show that the geodesic X-ray transform can be inverted locally in a stable manner; one even has a reconstruction formula. We also show that under an…
A generalization with singular weights of Moore-Penrose generalized inverses of closed range operators in Hilbert spaces is studied using the notion of compatibility of subspaces and positive operators.
Normality of the Dirac operator is shown to be necessary for chiral properties. From the global chiral Ward identity, which in the continuum limit gives the index theorem, a sum rule results which constrains the spectrum. The…
We study the microlocal properties of the geodesic X-ray transform $\mathcal{X}$ on a manifold with boundary allowing the presence of conjugate points. Assuming that there are no self-intersecting geodesics and all conjugate pairs are…
For an embedded conformal hypersurface with boundary, we construct critical order local invariants and their canonically associated differential operators. These are obtained holographically in a construction that uses a singular Yamabe…
We study a one-parameter family of self-adjoint normal operators for the X-ray transform on the closed Euclidean disk ${\mathbb D}$, obtained by considering specific singularly weighted $L^2$ topologies. We first recover the well-known…
A general invariant manifold theorem is needed to study the topological classes of smooth dynamical systems. These classes are often invariant under renormalization. The classical invariant manifold theorem cannot be applied, because the…
We consider a Dirac-type operator $D_P$ on a vector bundle $V$ over a compact Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ with a nonempty boundary. The operator $D_P$ is specified by a boundary condition $P(u|_{\p M})=0$ where $P$ is a projector which may…
This article is an application of the author's paper about a construction method for discrete constant negative Gaussian curvature surfaces, the nonlinear d'Alembert formula. The heart of this formula is the Birkhoff decomposition, and we…
We give a detailed microlocal study of X-ray transforms over geodesics-like families of curves with conjugate points of fold type. We show that the normal operator is the sum of a pseudodifferential operator and a Fourier integral operator.…
