propagation of singularities & the Schrodinger equation
I've been thinking about the following propagation of singularities result:
Let $X$ be a compact manifold, and let $P$ be a differential operator (of, say, order $m$) on $X$ whose principal symbol $\...

Applications of microlocal analysis?
What examples are there of striking applications of the ideas of microlocal analysis?
Ideally I'm looking for specific results in any of the relevant fields (PDE, algebraic/differential geometry/...

Is every continuous microlocal operator a pseudo-differential operator?
Let $\mathcal S'=\mathcal S'(\mathbb R^n)$ be the Schwartz distribution space.
Suppose $A\colon\mathcal S'\to\mathcal S'$ is linear, continuous and microlocal.
By being microlocal I mean that the wave ...

Characterization of inverse differential operators
If I have a partial differential operator $p(D)$, where $p$ is a polynomial with constant coefficients and $D$ is the derivative in Euclidean space. Its inverse is easily described in Fourier space: $\...

Composition of a smoothing operator with an $L^2$-bounded operator, non-compact Riemannian manifold
I'm trying to close in on a definitive answer to my own question BVPs for elliptic PDOs: When do Green functions ($L^2$ inverses) define pseudo-differential operators in the interior?, and think I ...

Does the 'reproducing kernel formula' for a bounded open set $U$ define an equivalent norm on the Sobolev space $H^1_0(U)$
We refer to the 'reproducing convolution formula with a kernel' for an open bounded domain $U$ of $R^n$, $n \geq 2$ discussed in the paper of G. Talenti (Annali de Matematica, Dec 1976) on Best ...

Kashiwara's watermelon theorem and Microlocal version of Helgason's (support) and Holmgren's theorems
I would like to find good references for the theorems mentioned above in the title. I am reading chapter VIII of Hörmander's classic, but I wonder whether there is something more up-to-date.
My ...

Wavefront set of characteristic function of rough set
It is a standard exercise to show that if $X\subseteq\mathbb{R}^n$ has smooth boundary, then the characteristic function $1_X$ has wavefront set $$\{(x,\xi)\in\partial X\times\mathbb{R}^n\setminus\{0\}...

Does Morrey's inequality contextually relate to Rellic-Kondrachov compactness?
I have been reflecting on this question, and want to share my thinking thus far. I'd be grateful for the community's inputs.
We refer to Morrey's inequality, Theorem 4 on pp 266 of Evan's book on PDE, ...
