Adjoints of elliptic boundary value problems
We prove that the theorem of Egorov, on the canonical transformation of symbols of pseudodifferential operators conjugated by Fourier integral operators, can be sharpened. The main result is that the statement of Egorov's theorem remains true if, instead of just considering the principal symbols in Sm/Sm-1 for the pseudodifferential operators, one uses refined principal symbols in Sm/Sm-2, which for classical operators correspond simply to the principal plus the subprincipal symbol, and can generally...
We define homogeneous classes of x-dependent anisotropic symbols in the framework determined by an expansive dilation A, thus extending the existing theory for diagonal dilations. We revisit anisotropic analogues of Hörmander-Mikhlin multipliers introduced by Rivière [Ark. Mat. 9 (1971)] and provide direct proofs of their boundedness on Lebesgue and Hardy spaces by making use of the well-established Calderón-Zygmund theory on spaces of homogeneous type. We then show that x-dependent symbols in...
We propose a new formulation of the 3D Boltzmann non linear operator, without assuming Grad's angular cutoff hypothesis, and for intermolecular laws behaving as 1/rs, with s> 2. It involves natural pseudo differential operators, under a form which is analogous to the Landau operator. It may be used in the study of the associated equations, and more precisely in the non homogeneous framework.
We consider a periodic pseudo-differential operator on the real line, which is a lower-order perturbation of an elliptic operator with a homogeneous symbol and constant coefficients. It is proved that the density of states of such an operator admits a complete asymptotic expansion at large energies. A few first terms of this expansion are found in a closed form.
