Reasons behind different conventions for symbol of operator

I've come across two slightly different conventions for the symbol of a differential operator $D$ (let's say on $\mathbb{R}^n$) and haven't thought much about the motivation behind them until now. The ...

PDE on an open ball with prescribed value on some open subsets

Suppose that we have a $r$-order differential operator $L:C^r(B^n, \mathbb{R})\to C^0(B^n,\mathbb{R})$ where $B^n $ is the open unitary ball in $\mathbb{R}^n$ (we can assume for simplicity that it ...

Positive form for a homogeneous elliptic pde

I have a pde of the following form: \begin{align} &P(x,D)u = f \text{ on } \Omega, \\ &P(x,D) = \sum\limits_{|\alpha|=2m}a_\alpha(x)D^{\alpha}, \end{align} where one can assume that $f$ ...

Positivity of semiclassical pseudodifferential operators

Let me first give some background. (My reference is Martinez's book An introduction to semiclassical and microlocal analysis) Let $m\in\mathbb{R}$, and $p(x,\xi):\mathbb{R}^n_x\times\mathbb{R}^n_\xi\...

Recursive formula for symbol of resolvent on noncompact manifold

On a compact Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ without boundary it was shown (by R. Seeley) how to define the complex power of an elliptic classical pseudodifferential operator $A$ of positive order $m$: ...
