Real involutive systems on compact Lie groups

On a compact connected Lie group $G$, we study the global solvability and the cohomology spaces of the differential complex associated with an essentially real involutive structure that is invariant under left translations. We prove that solvability in the first degree of the complex implies solvability in all other degrees, and furnish a converse for this fact under a certain commutativity hypothesis (that always holds when $G$ is a torus). Additionally, it is proved that the solvability holds when the structure comes from the Lie algebra of a closed subgroup of $G$. We also investigate real tube structures when $G$ is the base manifold.

Relations between different types of Hypoellipticity: A systematic approach

We give a systematic treatment to the concept of hypoellipticity, putting it into an abstract form which allows us to deal with several different notions within the same framework. We then investigate when a notion of hypoellipticity implies another one and, in particular, when it can be extended for more general spaces. We also present a relation between certain types of hypoellipticity and local solvability (for the transpose) for a family of operators.

Global solvability and cohomology of tube structures on compact manifolds

We introduce new techniques to study the differential complexes associated to tube structures on $M \times \mathbb{T}^m$ of corank $m$, in which $M$ is a compact manifold and $\mathbb{T}^m$ is the $m$-torus. By systematically employing partial Fourier series, for complex tube structures, we completely characterize global solvability, in a given degree, in terms of a weak form of hypoellipticity, thus generalizing existing results and providing a broad answer to an open problem proposed by Hounie and Zugliani (2017). We also obtain new results on the finiteness of the cohomology spaces in intermediate degrees. In the case of real tube structures, we extend an isomorphism for the cohomology spaces originally obtained by Dattori da Silva and Meziani (2016) in the case $M = \mathbb{T}^n$. Moreover, we establish necessary and sufficient conditions for the differential operator to have closed range in the first degree.

Global analytic hypoellipticity and solvability of certain operators subject to group actions

On $T \times G$, where $T$ is a compact real-analytic manifold and $G$ is a compact Lie group, we consider differential operators $P$ which are invariant by left translations on $G$ and are elliptic in $T$. Under a mild technical condition, we prove that global hypoellipticity of $P$ implies its global analytic-hypoellipticity (actually Gevrey of any order $s \geq 1$). We also study the connection between the latter property and the notion of global analytic (resp. Gevrey) solvability, but in a much more general setup.

A new microlocal analysis of hyperfunctions

In this work we study microlocal regularity of hyperfunctions defining in this context a class of generalized FBI transforms first introduced for distributions by Berhanu and Hounie. Using a microlocal decomposition of a hyperfunction and the generalized FBI transforms we were able to characterize the wave-front set of hyperfunctions according several types of regularity. The microlocal decomposition allowed us to recover and generalize both classical and recent results and, in particular, we proved for differential operators with real-analytic coefficients that if the elliptic regularity theorem regarding any reasonable regularity holds for distributions, then it is automatically true for hyperfunctions.

Global solvability and propagation of regularity of sums of squares on compact manifolds

We investigate global solvability, in the framework of smooth functions and Schwartz distributions, of certain sums of squares of vector fields defined on a product of compact Riemannian manifolds $T \times G$, where $G$ is further assumed to be a Lie group. As in a recent article due to the authors, our analysis is carried out in terms of a system of left-invariant vector fields on $G$ naturally associated with the operator under study, a simpler object which nevertheless conveys enough information about the original operator so as to fully encode its solvability. As a welcome side effect of the tools developed for our main purpose, we easily prove a general result on propagation of regularity for such operators.

Global hypoellipticity of sums of squares on compact manifolds

In this work, we present necessary and sufficient conditions for an operator of the type sum of squares to be globally hypoelliptic on a product of compact Riemannian manifolds $T \times G$, where $G$ is also a Lie group. These new conditions involve the global hypoellipticity of a system of vector fields and are weaker than Hörmander's condition, at the same time that they generalize the well known Diophantine conditions on the torus. We were also able to provide examples of operators satisfying these conditions in the general setting.
