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 global real analytic regularity theorem for a quasilinear sum of squares of vector fields of Hormander rank 2 is given. A related local result for a special case was proved recently by the second author and L. Zanghirati in a paper titled…
We prove a couple of results concerning pseudodifferential perturbations of differential operators being sums of squares of vector fields and satisfying H\"ormander's condition. The first is on the minimal Gevrey regularity: if a sum of…
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 simplify and give an alternative proof of hypoellipticity for generalizations of the singular sum of squares of complex vector fields studied by Kohn, with an appendix by Derridj and Tartakoff, in the Annals of Mathematics, vol. 162 no.…
We argue that a necessary condition for hypoellipticity is that the polar is not a spiral domain.
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…
Certain second-order partial differential operators, which are expressed as sums of squares of real-analytic vector fields in $\Bbb R^3$ and which are well known to be $C^\infty$ hypoelliptic, fail to be analytic hypoelliptic.
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…
In this work, we present necessary and sufficient conditions for an operator of the type sum of squares to be globally hypoelliptic on a product of compact Riemannian manifolds $T \times G$, where $G$ is also a Lie group. These new…
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.…
Hypoellipticity in Gevrey classes $G^s$ is characterized for a simple family of sums of squares of vector fields satisfying the bracket hypothesis, with analytic coefficients. It is shown that hypoellipticity holds if and only if $s$ is…
In this paper we prove local analytic hypoellipticity for a degenerate sum of squares of complex vector fields generalizing those of Kohn in "Hypoellipticity and Loss of Derivatives". Kohn's article is to appear in the Annals of Mathematics…

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…
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.
We present necessary and sufficient conditions to have global hypoellipticity and global solvability for a class of vector fields defined on a product of compact Lie groups. In view of Greenfield's and Wallach's conjecture, about 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…
To any finite collection of smooth real vector fields $X_j$ in $\reals^n$ we associate a metric in the phase space $T^*\reals^n$. The relation between the asymptotic behavior of this metric and hypoellipticity of $\sum X_j^2$, in the…
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 $.…
