Conormal distributions and the wave front set
Let $X$ be a smooth closed manifold and $Y$ a regular submanifold. For all conormal distributions at $Y$ on $X$, their wave front set is contained in the conormal bundle of $Y$. Is the reciprocal true?...

Fréchet-valued symbols
Denote by $S^m \left ( \mathbb{R}^k \times \mathbb{R}^n \right)$ the usual space of symbols. Now let $E$ be a Fréchet Space. We can then define $S^m \left ( \mathbb{R}^k \times \mathbb{R}^n; E \right)$...

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 ...

Is this a pseudodifferential operator?
Let $M$ be a non-compact manifold and $D$ a first-order self-adjoint elliptic differential operator on $M$. Then is the bounded operator
$$A:=\sqrt{(D^2+1)^{-1}}:L^2(M)\rightarrow H^1(M)$$

Pseudodifferential operator associated to a self-adjoint extension of a symmetric operator on an incomplete manifold
Let $D$ be the Dirac operator acting on a spinor bundle $S$ over a complete Riemannian manifold $M$. Then $D$ is an essentially self-adjoint operator on $L^2(S)$.
Suppose there is a compact subset $K\...

Pseudo-differential operators with compactly supported symbols
If the symbol $p(x,\xi)$ of a pseudodifferential operator $P$ has compact $x$-support, then for any Schwartz function $f$, $Pf$ has compact $x$-support.
Is the reverse true? Namely that if some PDO $...

Choice of parametrix on a non-compact manifold
Let $X$ be a non-compact complete Riemannian manifold and $P$ a first-order elliptic pseudodifferential operator on $X$. Let $Q$ be a parametrix for $P$, so that $PQ - 1 = T$ and $QP - 1 = R$ are ...

Practical way to check whether a distribution is conormal
Let $X$ be a $C^\infty$-manifold, $Y$ be its $C^\infty$-submanifold. Hörmander defines the set $I^m(X,Y)$ of conormal distributions as the set of all $u \in \mathscr D'(X)$ such that
$$
