Calculus for parametric boundary problems with global projection conditions

A pseudodifferential calculus for parameter-dependent operators on smooth manifolds with boundary in the spirit of Boutet de Monvel's algebra is constructed. The calculus contains, in particular, the resolvents of realizations of differential operators subject to global projection boundary conditions (spectral boundary conditions are a particular example); resolvent trace asymptotics are easily derived. The calculus is related to but different from the calculi developed by Grubb and Grubb-Seeley. We use ideas from the theory of pseudodifferential operators on manifolds with edges due to Schulze, in particular the concept of operator-valued symbols twisted by a group-action. Parameter-ellipticity in the calculus is characterized by the invertibility of three principal symbols: the homogeneous principal symbol, the principal boundary symbol, and the so-called principal limit symbol. The principal boundary symbol has, in general, a singularity in the co-variable/parameter space, the principal limit symbol is a new ingredient of our calculus.

Singular Green Operators of Finite Regularity in the Edge Algebra Formalism

We introduce a calculus for parameter-dependent singular Green operators on the half-space $\mathbb{R}^n_+$ that combines both elements of Grubb's calculus for boundary value problems of finite regularity and techniques of Schulze's calculus for pseudodifferential operators on manifolds with edges.

Determinants of Classical SG-Pseudodifferential Operators

We introduce a generalized trace functional TR in the spirit of Kontsevich and Vishik's canonical trace for classical SG-pseudodifferential operators on R^n and suitable manifolds, using a finite-part integral regularization technique. This allows us to define a zeta-regularized determinant det A for classical parameter-elliptic SG-operators A of order (μ,m), with μ>0, m\ge0. For m=0, the asymptotics of TR exp(-tA) as t\to 0 and of TR (λ-A)^{-k}$ as |λ|\to\infty are derived. For suitable pairs (A,A_0) we show that det A/det A_0 coincides with the so-called relative determinant det(A,A_0).

Uniqueness of the Kontsevich-Vishik Trace

Let M be a closed manifold. We show that the Kontsevich-Vishik trace, which is defined on the set of all classical pseudodifferential operators on M, whose (complex) order is not an integer greater than or equal to -dim M, is the unique functional which (i) is linear on its domain, (ii) has the trace property and (iii) coincides with the L^2-operator trace on trace class operators. Also the extension to even-even pseudodifferential operators of arbitrary integer order on odd-dimensional manifolds and to even-odd pseudodifferential operators of arbitrary integer order on even-dimensional manifolds is unique.

The Resolvent of Closed Extensions of Cone Differential Operators

We study closed extensions A of an elliptic differential operator on a manifold with conical singularities, acting as an unbounded operator on a weighted L_p-space. Under suitable conditions we show that the resolvent (λ-A)^{-1} exists in a sector of the complex plane and decays like 1/|λ| as |λ| tends to infinity. Moreover, we determine the structure of the resolvent with enough precision to guarantee existence and boundedness of imaginary powers of A. As an application we treat the Laplace-Beltrami operator for a metric with straight conical degeneracy and describe domains yielding maximal regularity for the Cauchy problem \dot{u}-Δu=f, u(0)=0.
