Abstract
We define the “signature” of a bounded operatorA onL 2 S 2 and prove thatA is smooth for the action ofSO(3) onL 2 S 2 if and only if its signature is smooth and any finite application of certain differential operators to it yields the signature of a bounded operator. Moreover, we show that the “formal Fourier multipliers with bounded and smoothly variable coefficients” are well defined bounded operators which areSO(3)-smooth.
