A mapping property for fractional Laplace--Beltrami operator

Suppose that $g$ is a smooth Riemannian metric on $\mathbb R^3$ that is equal to the Euclidean metric outside the unit ball. Let us define the fractional Laplace--Beltarmi operator on $\mathbb R^3$ of ...

Domains with discrete Laplace spectrum

Let $\Omega \subset \mathbb{R}^n$ be a domain. Assume that the Laplacian $-\Delta=-(\partial^2/\partial x_1^2+\cdots+\partial^2/\partial x_n^2)$ has a discrete spectrum on $L^2(\Omega)$ (i.e., we are ...

Spectrum of an elliptic operator in divergence form with a reflecting boundary condition

Let $\Omega$ be a bounded open domain and $v:\Omega\to\mathbb{R}^n$. Consider the following elliptic operator in divergence form, defined on smooth functions $u: \Omega \to \mathbb{R}$ \begin{align} L ...

Spectrum of a first-order elliptic differential operator

Suppose that I have a first-order elliptic differential operator $A: \mathrm{dom}(A) \subset L^2(E) \to L^2(E)$, where $(E,h^E) \to M$ is a hermitian vector bundle and $M$ is a compact manifold. I ...

Spectral Gap of Elliptic Operator

Under what conditions on $a(x)$ and domain $D$, the spectral gap of the elliptic operator $ \nabla \cdot(a(x)\cdot \nabla)$ defined on $D$, can be controlled? The boundary condition is that the ...

Parabolic PDE Long Time Asymptotics and Elliptic Operator Spectrum II

This is a follow-up on a previous question. Now the parabolic PDE of $P(t,x,v)$ has two spatial dimensions. $$ \partial_t P = L^* P \tag1 $$ $$L^*P = \frac12\left(\kappa^2\frac{\partial^2}{\partial v^...

Parabolic PDE Long Time Asymptotics and Elliptic Operator Spectrum

How does one show directly that the solution following parabolic partial differential equation (PDE) of $p(t,v)$ approaches its stationary solution which is a solution of an elliptic partial ...
