Spectral theory for a class of pseudodifferential operators

Edward Arthur Catchpole

Open publisher page 2 citations

Abstract

Synopsis We investigate the spectral theory for a class of pseudodifferential operators which includes all constant coefficient differential operators, and also operators such as The operators considered are of the form Su(x) = Au(x)+q(x)u(x), where A is an operator which corresponds in the Fourier transform plane to a multiplication operator, and q(x) is a potential term. We prove an eigenfunction expansion theorem for S and derive some results concerning the spectrum of S.
