In this paper we give several global characterisations of the Hormander class of pseudo-differential operators on compact Lie groups. The result is applied to give criteria for the ellipticity and the global hypoellipticity of pseudo-differential operators in terms of their matrix-valued full symbols. Several examples of the first and second order globally hypoelliptic differential operators are given. Where the global hypoelliptiticy fails, one can construct explicit examples based on the analysis of the global symbols.
In this paper, we study the boundedness of pseudodifferential operators with symbols in the Hörmander class $S^0_{ρ,ρ}$ on $α$-modulation spaces $M_{p,q}^{s,α}$, and consider the relation between $α$ and $ρ$. In particular, we show that pseudodifferential operators with symbols in $S^0_{α,α}$ are bounded on all $α$-modulation spaces $M^{s,α}_{p,q}$, for arbitrary $s\in\mathbb{R}$ and for the whole range of exponents $0 < p,q \leq \infty$.
We study the link between pseudo-differential operators and Wick operators via the Bargmann transform. We deduce a formula for the symbol of the Wick operator in terms of the short-time Fourier transform of the Weyl symbol. This gives characterizations of Wick symbols of pseudo-differential operators of Shubin type and of infinite order, and results on composition. We prove a series expansion of Wick operators in anti-Wick operators which leads to a sharp Gårding inequality and transition of hypoellipticity between Wick and and Shubin symbols. Finally we show continuity results for anti-Wick o…
The purpose of this paper is to introduce new definitions of Hörmander classes for pseudo-differential operators over the compact group of $p$-adic integers. Our definitions possess a symbolic calculus, asymptotic expansions and parametrices, together with an interesting relation with the infinite matrices algebras studied by K. Gröchenig and S. Jaffard. Also, we show how our definition of Hörmander classes is related to the definition given in the toroidal case by M. Ruzhansky and V. Turunen. In order to show the special properties of our definition, in a later work, we will study several spe…
We show continuity properties for the pseudo-differential operator $\operatorname{Op} (a)$ from $M(ω_0ω,\mathscr B )$ to $M(ω,\mathscr B )$, for fixed $s,σ\ge 1$, $ω,ω_0\in \mathscr P _{s,σ}^0$ ($ω,ω_0\in \mathscr P _{s,σ}$), $a\in Γ^{σ,s}_{(ω_0)}$ ($a\in Γ^{σ,s;0}_{(ω_0)}$) , and $\mathscr B$ is an invariant Banach function space.
Let $s\ge 1$, $ω,ω_0\in \mathscr P_{E,s}^0$, $a\in Γ_{s}^{(ω_0)}$, and let $\mathscr B$ be a suitable invariant quasi-Banach function space, Then we prove that the pseudo-differential operator $\operatorname{Op} (a)$ is continuous from $M(ω_0ω,\mathscr B )$ to $M(ω,\mathscr B )$.
We consider bilinear pseudo-differential operators whose symbols posses Gevrey type regularity and may have a sub-exponential growth at infinity, together with all their derivatives. It is proved that those symbol classes can be described by the means of the short-time Fourier transform and modulation spaces. Our first main result is the invariance property of the corresponding bilinear operators. Furthermore we prove the continuity of such operators when acting on modulation spaces. As a consequence, we derive their continuity on anisotropic Gelfand-Shilov type spaces. We consider both Beurli…
In this work we obtain sharp $L^p$-estimates for pseudo-differential operators on arbitrary graded Lie groups. The results are presented within the setting of the global symbolic calculus on graded Lie groups by using the Fourier analysis associated to every graded Lie group which extends the usual one due to Hörmander on $\mathbb{R}^n$. The main result extends the classical Fefferman's sharp theorem on the $L^p$-boundedness of pseudo-differential operators for Hörmander classes on $\mathbb{R}^n$ to general graded Lie groups, also adding the borderline $ρ=δ$ case.
We establish continuity and Schatten-von Neumann properties for matrix operators with matrices satisfying mixed quasi-norm estimates. These considerations also include the case when the Lebesgue and Schatten parameters are allowed to stay between $0$ and $1$. We use the results to deduce continuity and Schatten-von Neumann properties for pseudo-differential operators with symbols in a broad class of modulation spaces.
In this work we characterise the Hörmander classes $\symbClassOn{m}ρδ{\group,\textnormal{Hör}}$ on the open manifold $\group = (-1,1)^n$. We show that by endowing the open manifold $\group = (-1,1)^n$ with a group structure, the corresponding global Fourier analysis on the group allows one to define a global notion of symbol on the phase space $\group \times \R^n$. Then, the class of pseudo-differential operators associated to the global Hörmander classes $\symbClassOn{m}ρδ{\group \times \R^n}$ recovers the Hörmander classes $\symbClassOn{m}ρδ{\group,\textnormal{loc}}$ defined by local coordin…
In this paper we investigate the Besov spaces on compact Lie groups in a subelliptic setting, that is, associated with a family of vector fields, satisfying the Hörmander condition, and their corresponding sub-Laplacian. Embedding properties between subelliptic Besov spaces and Besov spaces associated to the Laplacian on the group are proved. We link the description of subelliptic Sobolev spaces with the matrix-valued quantisation procedure of pseudo-differential operators in order to provide subelliptic Sobolev and Besov estimates for operators in the Hörmander classes. Interpolation properti…
Let $G$ be a compact Lie group of dimension $n.$ In this work we characterise the membership of classical pseudo-differential operators on $G$ in the trace class ideal $S_{1}(L^2(G)),$ as well as in the setting of the Schatten ideals $S_{r}(L^2(G)),$ for all $r>0.$ In particular, we deduce Schatten characterisations of elliptic pseudo-differential operators of $(ρ,δ)$-type for the large range $0\leq δ<ρ\leq 1.$ Additional necessary and sufficient conditions are given in terms of the matrix-valued symbols of the operators, which are global functions on the phase space $G\times \widehat{G},$ wit…
In this paper we study the boundedness of global pseudo-differential operators on smooth manifolds. By using the notion of global symbol we extend a classical condition of Hörmander type to guarantee the $L^p$-$L^q$-boundedness of global operators. First we investigate $L^p$-boundedness of pseudo-differential operators in view of the Hörmander-Mihlin condition. We also prove $L^\infty$-$BMO$ estimates for pseudo-differential operators. Later, we concentrate our investigation to settle $L^p$-$L^q$ boundedness of the Fourier multipliers and pseudo-differential operators for the range $1<p \leq 2…
In this paper, we give a sharp sparse domination of pseudodifferential operators associated with symbols belonging to the Hörmander class, and fundamental solutions of dispersive equations. Furthermore, we give boundedness results of these operators on weighted Besov spaces by using the sparse domination.
We extend the classical regularity theorem of elliptic operators to maximally hypoelliptic differential operators. More precisely, given vector fields $X_1,\ldots,X_m$ on a smooth manifold which satisfy Hörmander's bracket generating condition, we define a principal symbol for \textit{any} linear differential operator. Our symbol takes into account the vector fields $X_i$ and their commutators. We show that for an arbitrary differential operator, its principal symbol is invertible if and only if the operator is maximally hypoelliptic. This answers affirmatively a conjecture due to Helffer and …
We apply Shubin's theory of global symbol classes $Γ_ρ^{m}$ to the Born-Jordan pseudodifferential calculus we have previously developed. This approach has many conceptual advantages, and makes the relationship between the conflicting Born-Jordan and Weyl quantization methods much more limpid. We give, in particular, precise asymptotic expansions of symbols allowing to pass from Born-Jordan quantization to Weyl quantization, and vice-versa. In addition we state and prove some regularity and global hypoellipticity results.
In this work we investigate the well-posedness for difussion equations associated to subelliptic pseudo-differential operators on compact Lie groups. The diffusion by strongly elliptic operators is considered as a special case and in particular the fractional diffusion with respect to the Laplacian. The general case is studied within the Hörmander classes associated to a sub-Riemannian structure on the group (encoded by a Hörmander system of vector fields). Applications to diffusion equations for fractional sub-Laplacians, fractional powers of more general subelliptic operators, and the corres…
Classically, Gohberg-type Lemmas provide lower bounds for the distance of suitable pseudodifferential operators acting in a Hilbert space to the ideal of compact operators, in terms of "the behavior of the symbol at infinity". In this article the pseudodifferential operators are associated to a compact Abelian group $X$ and an important role is played by its Pontryagin dual $\widehat X$. Hörmander-type classes of symbols are not always available; they will be replaced by crossed product $C^*$-algebras involving a vanishing oscillation condition, which anyway is more general even in the particu…
The overall goal of this dissertation is to investigate certain classical results from harmonic analysis, replacing the Euclidean setting, the abelian structure and the elliptic Laplace operator with a non-commutative environment and hypoelliptic operators. More specifically, we consider wave equations for hypoelliptic homogeneous left-invariant operators on graded Lie groups with time-dependent non-negative propagation speeds that are Hölder-regular or even more so. The corresponding Euclidean problem has been extensively studied in the `80s and some additional results have been recently obta…
In this work we establish the metric approximation property for Besov spaces defined on arbitrary compact Lie groups. As a consequence of this fact, we investigate trace formulae for nuclear Fourier multipliers on Besov spaces. Finally, we study the r-nuclearity, the Grothendieck-Lidskii formula and the (nuclear) trace of pseudo-differential operators in generalized Hörmander classes acting on periodic Besov spaces. We will restrict our attention to pseudo-differential operators with symbols of limited regularity.
In this paper, we investigate the nuclear trace of vector-valued Fourier multipliers on the torus and its applications to the index theory of periodic pseudo-differential operators. First, we characterise the nuclearity of pseudo-differential operators acting on Bochner integrable functions. In this regards, we consider the periodic and the discrete cases. We go on to address the problem of finding sharp sufficient conditions for the nuclearity of vector-valued Fourier multipliers on the torus. We end our investigation with two index formulae. First, we express the index of a vector-valued Fou…
On the torus, it is possible to assign a global symbol to a pseudodifferential operator using Fourier series. In this paper we investigate the relations between the local and global symbols for the operators in the classical Hörmander calculus and describe the principal symbols, the non-commutative residue and the canonical trace of an operator in terms of its global symbol. We also generalise these results to any compact Lie group.
In this paper we use Riesz spectral Theory and Gershgorin Theory to obtain explicit information concerning the spectrum of pseudo-differential operators defined on the unit circle $\mathbb{T} := \mathbb{R}/ 2 π\mathbb{ Z}$. For symbols in the Hörmander class $S^m_{1 , 0} (\mathbb{T} \times \mathbb{Z})$, we provide a sufficient and necessary condition to ensure that the corresponding pseudo-differential operator is a Riesz operator in $L^p (\mathbb{T})$, $1< p < \infty$, extending in this way compact operators characterisation and Ghoberg's lemma to $L^p (\mathbb{T})$. We provide an example of …
Let $G$ be an arbitrary compact Lie group. In this work we apply the method of the analytic continuation of traces in order to compute the Wodzicki residue for a classical pseudo-differential operator on $G$ in terms of its matrix-valued symbol (which is globally defined on the non-commutative phase space $G\times \widehat{G},$ with $\widehat{G}$ being the unitary dual of $G$). Our main theorem is complementary to the results in [2], where we remove the ellipticity hypothesis when the operators belong to the Hörmander classes on $G$ defined by local coordinate systems.
Let $(M,g)$ be a closed Riemannian manifold. The aim of this work is to prove the Lebeau-Robbiano spectral inequality for a positive elliptic pseudo-differential operator $E(x,D)$ on $M,$ of order $ν>0,$ in the Hörmander class $Ψ^ν_{ρ,δ}(M).$ In control theory this has been an open problem prior to this work. As an application of this fundamental result, we establish the null-controllability of the (fractional) heat equation associated with $E(x,D).$ The sensor $ω\subset M$ in the observability inequality is an open subset of $M.$ The obtained results (that are, the corresponding spectral ineq…
