In this note, by analyzing the behavior at infinity of the matrix symbol of an invariant operator $P$ with respect to a fixed elliptic operator, we obtain a necessary and sufficient condition to guarantee that $P$ is globally hypoelliptic. We also investigate relations between the global hypoellipticity of $P$ and global subelliptic estimates.
Let $G_1$ and $G_2$ be compact Lie groups, $X_1 \in \mathfrak{g}_1$, $X_2 \in \mathfrak{g}_2$ and consider the operator \begin{equation*} L_{aq} = X_1 + a(x_1)X_2 + q(x_1,x_2), \end{equation*} where $a$ and $q$ are ultradifferentiable functions in the sense of Komatsu, and $a$ is real-valued. We characterize completely the global hypoellipticity and the global solvability of $L_{aq}$ in the sense of Komatsu. For this, we present a conjugation between $L_{aq}$ and a constant-coefficient operator that preserves these global properties in Komatsu classes. We also present examples of globally hypoelliptic and globally solvable operators on $\mathbb{T}^1\times \mathbb{S}^3$ and $\mathbb{S}^3\times \mathbb{S}^3$ in the sense of Komatsu. In particular, we give examples of differential operators which are not globally $C^\infty$-solvable, but are globally solvable in Gevrey spaces.
In this work, we develop Fourier Analysis for a family of classes of ultradifferentiable functions of Romieu type on the torus, usually known as Denjoy-Carleman classes. Then we are able to apply our results in order to generalize some results whose proofs rely almost exclusively on Fourier Series, such as the Greenfield-Wallach Theorem.
In this paper we characterize completely the global hypoellipticity and global solvability in the sense of Komatsu (of Roumieu and Beurling types) of constant-coefficients vector fields on compact Lie groups. We also analyze the influence of perturbations by lower order terms in the preservation of these properties.
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 non-existence of globally hypoelliptic vector fields on compact manifolds different from tori, we also investigate different notions of regularity weaker than global hypoellipticity and describe completely the global hypoellipticity and global solvability of zero-order perturbations of our vector fields. We also present a class of vector fields with variable coefficients whose operators can be reduced to a normal form, and we prove that the study of the global properties of such operators is equivalent to the study of the respective properties for their normal forms.
In this note we investigate the partial Fourier series on a product of two compact Lie groups. We give necessary and sufficient conditions for a sequence of partial Fourier coefficients to define a smooth function or a distribution. As applications, we will study conditions for the global solvability of an evolution equation defined on $\mathbb{T}^1\times\mathbb{S}^3$ and we will show that some properties of this evolution equation can be obtained from a constant coefficient equation.
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 belonging to the Gevrey class $G^s(\mathbb{T}^1)$, with $s>1$. In this paper we were able to characterize the global $s-$hypoellipticity of this system in terms of Diophantine approximations and the Nirenberg-Treves condition (P).
Inspired by results of A. Bergamasco on perturbations of vector fields defined on the two-dimensional torus, and of J. Delgado and M. Ruzhansky on properties of invariant operators with respect to an elliptic operator defined on a closed manifold, we give necessary and sufficient conditions to ensure that perturbations of a globally hypoelliptic operator defined on $\T\times M$, continue to be globally hypoelliptic, where $\T$ is the flat torus and $M$ is a closed smooth manifold. For this, we analyze the behavior, at infinity, of the sequences of eigenvalues generated by the family of matrices given by the restrictions of this on the eigenspaces of a fixed elliptic operator. As an application, we construct perturbations, invariant with respect to the Laplacian, of the vector field $D_t + ωD_x$ on $\T^2$. In the case where these perturbations commute with the operator $D_x$, our examples recover and extend some results of Bergamasco. Additionally, we construct examples of low order perturbations that destroy the global hypoellipticity, in the presence of diophantine phenomena.
We show that an obstruction of number-theoretical nature appears as a necessary condition for the global hypoellipticity of the pseudo-differential operator $L=D_t+(a+ib)(t)P(D_x)$ on $\mathbb{T}^1_t\times\mathbb{T}_x^{N}$. This condition is also sufficient when the symbol $p(ξ)$ of $P(D_x)$ has at most logarithmic growth. If $p(ξ)$ has super-logarithmic growth, we show that the global hypoellipticity of $L$ depends on the change of sign of certain interactions of the coefficients with the symbol $p(ξ).$ Moreover, the interplay between the order of vanishing of coefficients with the order of growth of $p(ξ)$ plays a crucial role in the global hypoellipticity of $L$. We also describe completely the global hypoellipticity of $L$ in the case where $P(D_x)$ is positively homogeneous. Additionally, we explore the influence of irrational approximations of a real number in the global hypoellipticity.
The main goal of this paper is to address global hypoellipticity issues for the following class of operators: $L = D_t + C(t,x,D_x)$, where $(t,x) \in \mathbb{T} \times M$, $\mathbb{T}$ is the one-dimensional torus, $M$ is a closed manifold and $C(t,x,D_x)$ is a first order pseudo-differential operator on $M$, smoothly depending on the periodic variable $t$. In the case of separation of variables, namely, $C(t,x,D_x) = a(t)p(x,D_x)+ib(t)q(x,D_x)$, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the global hypoellipticity of $L$. In particular, we show that, under suitable conditions, the famous (P) condition of Niremberg-Treves is neither necessary nor sufficient to guarantee the global hypoellipticity of $L$.
We address some global solvability issues for classes of smooth nonsingular vector fields $L$ in the plane related to cohomological equations $Lu=f$ in geometry and dynamical systems. The first main result is that $L$ is not surjective in $C^\infty(\R^2)$ iff the geometrical condition -- the existence of separatrix strips -- holds. Next, for nonsurjective vector fields, we demonstrate that if the RHS $f$ has at most infra-exponential growth in the separatrix strips we can find a global weak solution $L^1_{loc}$ near the boundaries of the separatrix strips. Finally we investigate the global solvability for perturbations with zero order p.d.o. We provide examples showing that our estimates are sharp.
