We extend the classical regularity theorem of elliptic operators to maximally hypoelliptic differential operators. More precisely, given vector fields $X_1,\ldots,X_m$ on a smooth manifold which satisfy H\"ormander's bracket generating…

We study here the sub-Riemannian geometry on a manifold $M$ induced by a finite family $F$ of vector fields satisfying the H{\"o}rmander condition, as well as the differential operators obtained as polynomials in the elements of $F$. Such…

Given some vector fields on a smooth manifold satisfying H\"ormander's condition, we define a bi-graded pseudo-differential calculus which contains the classical pseudo-differential calculus and a pseudo-differential calculus adapted to the…

Let $-\im\Lie_\T$ (essentially Lie derivative with respect to $\T$, a smooth nowhere zero real vector field) and $P$ be commuting differential operators, respectively of orders 1 and $m\geq 1$, the latter formally normal, both acting on…

Let $L_{A}=-{\rm div}(A\nabla)$ be an elliptic divergence form operator with bounded complex coefficients subject to mixed boundary conditions on an arbitrary open set $\Omega\subseteq\mathbb{R}^{d}$. We prove that the maximal operator…

Given a differential operator defined in terms of left-invariant vector fields on a Lie group, we prove that the local condition defining maximal hypoellipticity is equivalent to a global estimate if the operator is left invariant. As a…

We demonstrate a method of associating the principal symbol at a $K$-point with a linear differential operator acting between modules over a commutative algebra, and we use it to define the ellipticity of a linear differential operator in a…

This memoir deals with the hypoelliptic calculus on Heisenberg manifolds, or Heisenberg calculus. The Heisenberg manifolds generalize CR and contact manifolds and in this context the main differential operators at stake include the…

We give a simple proof of the cobordism invariance of the index of an elliptic operator. The proof is based on a study of a Witten-type deformation of an extension of the operator to a complete Riemannian manifold. One of the advantages of…

Given a singular filtration on a manifold, e.g. a subriemannian setting, one can understand the elliptic regularity problems through a special kind of calculus. The principal symbol in this calculus involves the unitary representations of a…

The relative index theorem is proved for general first-order elliptic operators that are complete and coercive at infinity over measured manifolds. This extends the original result by Gromov-Lawson for generalised Dirac operators as well as…

We consider a second order operator with analytic coefficients whose principal symbol vanishes exactly to order two on a symplectic real analytic manifold. We assume that the first (non degenerate) eigenvalue vanishes on a symplectic…

We prove the validity of maximum principles for a class of fully nonlinear operators on unbounded subdomains $\Omega \subset \mathbb R^n$ of cylindrical type. The main structural assumption is the uniform ellipticity of the operator along…

We construct operator systems $\mathfrak C_I$ that are universal in the sense that all operator systems can be realized as their quotients. They satisfy the operator system lifting property. Without relying on the theorem by Kirchberg, we…

We say that a contractive Hilbert space operator is universal if there is a natural surjection from its generated C*-algebra to the C*-algebra generated by any other contraction. A universal contraction may be irreducible or a direct sum of…

This note concerns bounded derivations on maximal triangular operator algebras on a Hilbert space. Given any bounded derivation $\delta$ on a maximal triangular algebra whose invariant lattice is continuous at 1, an operator which is shown…

Our main theorem is in the generality of the axioms of Hilbert space, and the theory of unbounded operators. Consider two Hilbert spaces such that their intersection contains a fixed vector space D. It is of interest to make a precise…
