Given composition rules, determining whether a continuous map between smooth functions is a pseudodifferential operator
Let $M$ be a closed manifold, and let $P:C^{\infty}(M)\rightarrow C^{\infty}(M)$ be a continuous linear map in the smooth Fréchet topologies. In what is to come, if it helps, one can assume further ...

On the relation between ellipticity and Fredholmness as properties of linear PDE's on Fréchet spaces of smooth sections
Let $M$ be a compact manifold equipped with finite rank vector bundles $E$ and $F$ with spaces of $C^{\infty}$ sections denoted $\Gamma(E)$ and $\Gamma(F)$ respectively. It is standard that a ...

Is the range of the exterior covariant derivative closed in $L^{2}$?
Let $(M,g)$ be a compact Riemannian manifold. Given a tensor bundle $\mathbb{E}$, let $\nabla:\Gamma(\mathbb{E}) \rightarrow \Gamma(T^{*}M\otimes \mathbb{E})$ be the canonical connection induced by ...

Convergence of conformal metrics with prescribed curvature
We know that for any function $K: \mathbb{D} \to \left[-a, -b\right]$, where $a, b > 0$, there is a unique metric $h$ on the disk $\mathbb{D}$ which is conformal to $dz^{2}$, and has curvature ...

Generalizations of elliptic chain complexes
I would like to know if it is possible to generalize the notion of elliptic chain complex of differential operators to different contexts, whether geometric or non geometric. I have in mind D-geometry....

A parametrix for the $\bar\partial$ operator adapted to a holomorphic foliation
Let $X$ be a compact complex manifold with (regular) holomorphic foliation given by a holomorphic subbundle $\mathcal F$ of the tangent bundle. The foliation induces a filtration on differential forms....

Fredholmness of elliptic operator on Hölder spaces
Let $(M,g)$ be a smooth oriented closed Riemannian manifold, $E\to M$ a smooth vector bundle, and $C^{k,\alpha}(E)$ the Banach space of sections of $E$ that are $k$-times differentiable (with respect ...
