This note is a comment on a recent paper by J. J. Kohn. We give an example of a second order partial differential operator, expressed as a sum of squares of complex vector fields satisfying the bracket condition, that is not hypoelliptic.

The recent example of Hanges: $P = \partial_t^2 + t^2\Delta_x + \partial^2_{\theta(x)}$ in $R^3$ is analytic hypoelliptic in the sense of germs but not in the strong sense in any neighborhood of the origin. And its characteristic variety is…

We obtain global analytic hypoellipticity for a class of differential operators that can be expressed as a zero-order perturbation of a sum of squares of vector fields with real-analytic coefficients on compact Lie groups. The key…

A simple geometric condition is sufficient for analytic hypoellipticity of sums of squares of two vector fields in ${\mathbb R}^2$. This condition is proved to be necessary for generic vector fields and for various special cases, and to be…

The global analytic hypoellipticity is proved for a class of second order partial differential equations with non-negative characteristic form globally defined on the torus. The class considered in this work generalizes at some degree the…

We consider sums of squares operators globally defined on the torus. We show that if some assumptions are satisfied the operators are globally analytic hypoelliptic. The purpose of the assumptions is to rule out the existence of a Hamilton…

For each value of k, two complex vector fields satisfying the bracket condition are exhibited the sum of whose squares is hypoelliptic but not subelliptic - in fact the operator loses k-1 derivatives in Sobolev norms. In the Appendix it is…

We consider an operator $ P $ which is a sum of squares of vector fields with analytic coefficients. The operator has a non-symplectic characteristic manifold, but the rank of the symplectic form $ \sigma $ is not constant on $ \Char P $.…

We attach representations to non-symplectic stratum in the characteristic set of real vector fields. This leads to Schrodinger operators. The analysis of the solutions of these Schrodinger equations allows us to construct smooth,…

We are concerned with the problem of real analytic regularity of the solutions of sums of squares with real analytic coefficients. Treves conjecture states that an operator of this type is analytic hypoelliptic if and only if all the strata…

The global and semi-global analytic hypoellipticity on the torus is proved for two classes of sums of squares operators, introduced in "Analytic Hypoellipticity for Sums of Squares and the Treves Conjecture" by P. Albano and A. Bove and M.…

We give a semiclassical analysis of a nonlinear eigenvalue problem arising from the study of the failure of analytic hypoellipticity and obtain a general family of hypoelliptic, but not analytic hypoelliptic operators.

This study is an attempt at generalizing the class of partially hypoelliptic differential operators to a class of pseudodifferential operators, Symbol ideals are formed on the set of lineality and we discuss suitable topologies that allow…

We show that all smooth solutions of model non-linear sums of squares of vector fields are locally real analytic. A global result for more general operators is presented in a paper by Makhlouf Derridj and the first author under the title…

In this paper we establish a hypoellipticity result for second order linear operators comprised by a linear combination, with infinite vanishing coefficients, of subelliptic operators in separate spaces. This generalizes previous known…
