Jul 24, 2012 at 20:13 comment added Bazin It is true in the bornology sense defined in my answer.
Jul 23, 2012 at 22:28 comment added Deane Yang Is it possible to do it as follows: Write $J_\epsilon = I + S_\epsilon$, where $S_\epsilon \rightarrow 0$. Then $[A,J_\epsilon] = [A,S_\epsilon]$. Now show the latter remains bounded in the appropriate norm.

Jul 23, 2012 at 3:14 comment added Boaz Haberman There is no problem constructing these things; my favorite example is heat flow for time $\epsilon$. It is true that $[A,J_\epsilon] \in \Psi^{m-1}$ for each $\epsilon$. Actually, $[A,J_\epsilon] \in \Psi^{-\infty}$ since $J_\epsilon \in \Psi^{-\infty}$. The difficulty is in showing that $[A,J_\epsilon]$ is bounded uniformly as an operator from $H^{m-1}$ to $L^2$. To my mind there is no way a priori to bound the commutator in $\Psi^{m-1}$ in terms of the bounds for $J_\epsilon$ and $A$, despite the fact that $J_\epsilon \in \Psi^0$ uniformly.

Jul 23, 2012 at 1:11 comment added Deane Yang I must be missing something. Isn't $[A,B]$ bounded in $\Psi^{m-1}$ for any pseudodifferential operator $B$ of order $-1$ or less, because both $AB$ and $BA$ are?
Jul 22, 2012 at 23:51 comment added Piero D'Ancona After localization with a (finite) partition of unity, you can work in one single chart, where the mollifiers can be defined by convolution. Which step of this construction does not convince you?
