The uncertainty principle and hypoelliptic operators

Generalized Uncertainty Principle and Self-Adjoint Operators

In this work we explore the self-adjointness of the GUP-modified momentum and Hamiltonian operators over different domains. In particular, we utilize the theorem by von-Newmann for symmetric operators in order to determine whether the momentum and Hamiltonian operators are self-adjoint or not, or they have self-adjoint extensions over the given domain. In addition, a simple example of the Hamil...

Degenerate Hypoelliptic Operators and the Gaussian Kernel

Spectral Properties of Hypoelliptic Operators

We study hypoelliptic operators with polynomially bounded coefficients that are of the form K = ∑m i=1 X i Xi + X0 + f , where the Xj denote first order differential operators, f is a function with at most polynomial growth, and X i denotes the formal adjoint of Xi in L. For any ε > 0 we show that an inequality of the form ‖u‖δ,δ ≤ C(‖u‖0,ε + ‖(K + iy)u‖0,0) holds for suitable δ and C which are...

Semilinear Hypoelliptic Differential Operators with Multiple Characteristics

In this paper we consider the regularity of solutions of semilinear differential equations principal parts of which consist of linear polynomial operators constructed from real vector fields. Based on the study of fine properties of the principal linear parts we then obtain the regularity of solutions of the nonlinear equations. Some results obtained in this article are also new in the frame of...

H∞-calculus for Hypoelliptic Pseudodifferential Operators

We establish the existence of a bounded H∞-calculus for a large class of hypoelliptic pseudodifferential operators on R and closed manifolds.
