Global Hypoellipticity of a Class of Second Order Operators
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 20 November 2018
Abstract
We show that almost all perturbations P — λ, λ € C, of an arbitrary constant coefficient partial differential operator P are globally hypoelliptic on the torus. We also give a characterization of the values λ € C for which the operator is globally hypoelliptic; in particular, we show that the addition of a term of order zero may destroy the property of global hypoellipticity of operators of principal type, contrary to that happens with the usual (local) hypoellipticity.
