Let $L_j = \partial_{t_j} + (a_j+ib_j)(t_j) \partial_x, \, j = 1, \dots, n,$ be a system of vector fields defined on the torus $\mathbb{T}_t^{n}\times\mathbb{T}_x^1$, where the coefficients $a_j$ and $b_j$ are real-valued functions…
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…
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…
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 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…
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 local real analytic hypoellipticity for a sum of squares of complex vector fields studied by J.J. Kohn in a paper to appear in the Annals of Mathematics entitled "Hypoellipticity and loss of derivatives". The operator exhibits a…
We introduce time-periodic Gevrey-Sobolev-Kato spaces on asymptotically Euclidean manifolds and study their characterisation throughout Fourier expansions associated with suitable elliptic operators. As an application, we study the global…
We apply Kr\"{o}necker's approximation theorem to measure (in a topological sense) a set of constants which turn a vector field into a non-globally hypoelliptic operator. We present situations in which this set is a discrete enumerable…
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 characterize the global hypoellipticity, almost hypoellipticity and solvability for a class of systems of real vector fields on the (n + 1)-dimensional torus as well as the same properties about the sum of squares associated to the…
Symplectic Field Theory studies J-holomorphic curves in almost complex manifolds with cylindrical ends. One natural generalization is to replace 'cylindrical' by 'asymptotically cylindrical'. In this article, we generalize the asymptotic…
For about twenty five years it was a kind of folk theorem that complex vector-fields defined on $\Omega\times \mathbb R_t$ (with $\Omega$ open set in $\mathbb R^n$) by $$ L_j = \frac{\partial}{\partial t_j} + i \frac {\partial…
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…
We show that any generalised smooth distribution on a smooth manifold, possibly of non-constant rank, admits a Riemannian metric. Using such a metric, we attach a Laplace operator to any smooth distribution as such. When the underlying…
On $T \times G$, where $T$ is a compact real-analytic manifold and $G$ is a compact Lie group, we consider differential operators $P$ which are invariant by left translations on $G$ and are elliptic in $T$. Under a mild technical condition,…
In this article, we treat G_2-geometry as a special case of multisymplectic geometry and make a number of remarks regarding Hamiltonian multivector fields and Hamiltonian differential forms on manifolds with an integrable G_2-structure; in…
We discuss some global and semi-global existence and stability results obtained with the use of the conformal field equations.
Smooth hypoellipticity for scalar equations is quite well understood presently. On the other hand, much remains to be done for systems and/or at different levels of regularity and in particular for $L^1$-hypoellipticity. In this article we…
We define a Gaussian measure on the space $H^0_J(M, L^N)$ of almost holomorphic sections of powers of an ample line bundle $L$ over a symplectic manifold $(M, \omega)$, and calculate the joint probability densities of sections taking…
