We consider odd Laplace operators arising in odd symplectic geometry. Approach based on semidensities (densities of weight 1/2) is developed. The role of semidensities in the Batalin--Vilkovisky formalism is explained. In particular, we…

We analyze geometry of the second order differential operators, having in mind applications to Batalin--Vilkovisky formalism in quantum field theory. As we show, an exhaustive picture can be obtained by considering pencils of differential…

We solve the following problem: to describe in geometric terms all differential operators of the second order with a given principal symbol. Initially the operators act on scalar functions. Operator pencils acting on densities of arbitrary…

The divergence-like operator on an odd symplectic superspace which acts invariantly on a specially chosen odd vector field is considered. This operator is used to construct an odd invariant semidensity in a geometrically clear way. The…

There is a simple and natural quantization of differential forms on odd Poisson supermanifolds, given by the relation [f,dg]={f,g} for any two functions f and g. We notice that this non-commutative differential algebra has a geometrical…

We define the divergence operators on a graded algebra, and we show that, given an odd Poisson bracket on the algebra, the operator that maps an element to the divergence of the hamiltonian derivation that it defines is a generator of the…

Spaces of differential forms over configuration spaces with Poisson measures are constructed. The corresponding Laplacians (of Bochner and de Rham type) on forms and associated semigroups are considered. Their probabilistic interpretation…

In our previous works, we introduced, for each (super)manifold, a commutative algebra of densities. It is endowed with a natural invariant scalar product. In this paper, we study geometry of differential operators of second order on this…

We consider semidensities on a supermanifold E with an odd symplectic structure. We define a new $\Delta$-operator action on semidensities as the proper framework for Batalin-Vilkovisky formalism. We establish relations between…

Spaces of differential forms over configuration spaces with Poisson measures are constructed. The corresponding Laplacians (of Bochner and de Rham type) on 1-forms and associated semigroups are considered. Their probabilistic interpretation…

A second order self-adjoint operator $\Delta=S\partial^2+U$ is uniquely defined by its principal symbol $S$ and potential $U$ if it acts on half-densities. We analyse the potential $U$ as a compensating field (gauge field) in the sense that…

We consider the geometry of second order linear operators acting on the commutative algebra of densities on a (super)manifold introduced in our previous work. In the conventional language, operators on the algebra of densities correspond to…

The space of linear differential operators on a smooth manifold $M$ has a natural one-parameter family of $Diff(M)$ (and $Vect(M)$)-module structures, defined by their action on the space of tensor-densities. It is shown that, in the case…

The squared Laplace operator acting on symmetric rank-two tensor fields is studied on a (flat) Riemannian manifold with smooth boundary. Symmetry of this fourth-order elliptic operator is obtained provided that such tensor fields and their…

A linear odd Poisson bracket realized solely in terms of Grassmann variables is suggested. It is revealed that with the bracket, corresponding to a semi-simple Lie group, both a Grassmann-odd Casimir function and invariant (with respect to…

We recall the main facts about the odd Laplacian acting on half-densities on an odd symplectic manifold and discuss a homological interpretation for it suggested recently by P. {\v{S}}evera. We study the relationship of odd symplectic…

We study certain densely defined unbounded operators on the Fock space. These are the annihilation and creation operators of quantum mechanics. In several complex variables we have the $\partial$-operator and its adjoint $\partial^*$ acting…

We consider second order uniformly elliptic operators of divergence form in $\R^{d+1}$ whose coefficients are independent of one variable. Under the Lipschitz condition on the coefficients we characterize the domain of the Poisson operators…

The modular forms and weighted densities over the 1-dimensional manifold $M$ are transformed ``alike" under the group of linear fractional changes of coordinates, so the classifications of differential operators between spaces of (A)…

In this paper, we consider the Laplace operator on the half-space with Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. We prove that this operator admits a bounded $H^\infty$-calculus on Sobolev spaces with power weights measuring the distance…
