Ellipticity on spaces with higher singularities

Science China Mathematics volume 60, pages 2053–2076 (2017)Cite this article

Abstract

We study corner-degenerate pseudo-differential operators of any singularity order and develop ellipticity based on the principal symbolic hierarchy, associated with the stratification of the underlying space. We construct parametrices within the calculus and discuss the aspect of additional trace and potential conditions along lower-dimensional strata.
