The Kernel Theorem in Ultradistributions 181 Rend. Sem. Mat. Univ. Pol. Torino Vol. 67, 2 (2009), 179 – 201 Second Conf. Pseudo-Differential Operators O. Liess and Y. Okada∗ THE KERNEL THEOREM INULTRADISTRIBUTIONS: MICROLOCAL REGULARITY OF THE KERNEL Dedicated to Professor Luigi Rodino on the occasion of his 60th birthday Abstract. In this paper we study kernels associated with continuous operators between spaces of Gevrey ultradistributions. The existence of such kernels has been established, in analogy with the kernel theorem of L. Schwartz for classical distributions, by H. Komatsu, and our aim here is to study these kernels from a microlocal point of view. The main re- sults, which are the theorems 2, 3 below, show that there is a significant difference between the results which hold true in the case of Beurling ultradistributions and the results valid for Roumieu ultradistributions. 1. Introduction The Schwartz kernel theorem states that the linear continuous operators T mapping D (U) to D ′(V) are precisely the operators for which there is K ∈ D ′(V ×U) such that (1) Tu(ϕ) = K (ϕ ⊗ u), u ∈ D (U), ϕ ∈ D (V ). (Cf. L. Schwartz, [17].) K is called the “kernel” of T and in this situation we write Rm Rn Tu(x) = U K (x,y)u(y)dy. Here U and V are open sets in and respectively, R ∞ ′ D (U) is the space of C 0 (U) functions endowed with the Schwartz topology and D (W) the space of distributions on W, with W = V or W = V ×U. The Schwartz theorem has been extended to the case of ultradistributions by H. Komatsu and both L. Schwartz and H. Komatsu have also studied linear continuous operators defined on compactly supported distributions, respectively ultradistributions, to distributions or ultradistri- butions. We shall consider for the moment only the distribution case. The problem is then to consider a linear continuous operator T : E ′(U) → D ′(V ), where E ′(U) is the space of compactly supported distributions on U. T induces a linear contin- uous operator on D (U) and therefore it has a distributional kernel K ∈ D ′(V ×U). The relation (1) associates a separately continuous bilinear form (ϕ,u) 7→ K (ϕ ⊗ u) on D (V ) × D (U) with T whereas the initial operator defined on E ′(U) is associated with the bilinear form (ϕ,u) 7→ T(u)(ϕ) defined on D (V ) × E ′(U). If we want to understand the class of kernels K ∈ D ′(V ×U) which correspond to linear continuous operators E ′(U) → D ′(V), we may then just study the bilinear form (ϕ,u) 7→ K (ϕ⊗u) as a form on D (V ) × E ′(U). This has led to a sophisticated theory of tensor products of topological vector spaces in which the notion of “nuclear” spaces (introduced by ∗The second author was supported in part by JSPS Grant-in-Aid No. 19540165. 179 180 O. Liess and Y. Okada A. Grothendieck) plays a central role. It turns out that most common spaces of dis- tributions or ultradistributions are nuclear and the central result concerning the kernel theorem in distributions is that the operator T : D (U) → D ′(V ) associated with some K ∈ D ′(V ×U) can be extended to a linear continuous operator E ′(U) → D ′(V ) if and only if K can be identified in a natural way with an element in [D (V )⊗ˆ E ′(U)]′, where D (V )⊗ˆ E ′(U) is, say, the ε topological tensor product of D (V ) with E ′(U). Since the spaces under consideration are nuclear, we may as well work with the π tensor product. For definitions and details we refer to [2] and [19]. There is also an interpretation of this in terms of C ∞ functions with distributional values. The theory of tensor products of topological vector spaces is very powerful and it explains, among other things, why kernel theorems in Banach spaces of (possibly generalized) functions must typically be more complicated than those in distributions (see e.g., [1] for some examples of kernel theorems in Lebesgue spaces): infinite di- mensional Banach spaces are never nuclear. On the other hand, when one wants to consider kernel theorems in hyperfunctions, this kind of approach is not usable in prac- tice since hyperfunctions have no reasonable topology. One may then try another ap- proach, which has been worked out in microlocal analysis. The central notion is this time the “wave front set” of a distribution, ultradistribution, or hyperfunction (intro- duced in 1969 by M. Sato for hyperfunction, [15] and in 1970 by L. Hörmander for distributions, [3]). The main condition is then (2) {(x,y,0,η);x ∈ V,y ∈ U,η 6= 0} ∩ WF(K ) = 0/. When K is a distribution, WF(K ) stands for the C ∞ wave front set and if (2) holds ′ then microlocal analysis gives a natural meaning to U K (x,y)u(y)dy when u ∈ E (U). (See [3], [20].) The same is true also in hyperfunRctions if WF denotes the analytic wave front set: there is a natural meaning for U K (x,y)u(y)dy when u is a real-analytic functional on U. Integration is then defined Rin terms of “integration along fibers” and U K (x,y)u(y)dy has a meaning in hyperfunctions: see e.g., [16], [5] for details. R There is now however a fundamental difference between the two main cases contemplated by microlocal analysis, the distributional and the hyperfunctional one. It is in fact not difficult to see that the condition (2) is not equivalent to the fact that K ∈ [D (V )⊗ˆ E ′(U)]′. This means that (2) is not a necessary condition when we want K to define a continuous operator from E ′(U) to D ′(V ). On the other hand, it is part of the results described in [10], [11], that for hyperfunctions a reasonable operator acting from some space of analytic functionals to the space of hyperfunctions can only be defined in presence of condition (2). It seemed then natural to the present authors to look into the case of Gevrey ultradistributions and to study if microlocal conditions of type (2) are necessary for reasonable operators in ultradistributions to exist. It came, at least at first, as a surprise, that the answer depends on which type of ultradistributions one is considering: for ultradistributions of Beurling type, one may work with weaker conditions than the ones corresponding to (2), whereas for ultradistributions of Roumieu type such conditions are also necessary: see section 2 for the terminology and the theorems 2, 3 for the precise statements. The kernel theorem in ultradistributions 181 2. Definitions and main results For the convenience of the reader, we shall now recall some of the definitions related to Gevrey-ultradistributions. (For most of the notions considered here, cf. e.g., Lions– Magenes, vol.3, section 1.3, or [14].) Consider s > 1, L > 0, U open in Rn and let K be a compact set in U. We shall denote by f 7→ | f |s,L,K the quasinorm |(∂/∂x)α f (x)| (3) | f | = sup sup , s,L,K |α| s α∈Nn x∈K L (α!) defined on C ∞(U). We further denote by • D s,L(K) the space of C ∞ functions f on Rn which vanish outside K such that for them | f |s,L,K < ∞, (s) s,L {s} s,L • D (K) = L>0 D (K),D (K) = L>0 D (K), T S {s} {s} (s) (s) • D (U) = K⊂U D (K), respectively D (U) = K⊂U D (K), S S (s) ∞ • E (U) = { f ∈ C (U); ∀K ⋐ U, ∀L > 0, | f |s,L,K < ∞}, respectively {s} ∞ E (U) = { f ∈ C (U); ∀K ⋐ U, ∃L > 0, | f |s,L,K < ∞}. The functions in E {s}(U), are called “ultradifferentiable” of Roumieu type, and those in E (s)(U), ultradifferentiable of Beurling type, with Gevrey index s. Since we shall often encounter statements for the two types of classes which are quite similar, we now introduce the convention that we shall write D ∗(U) when we give a statement which refers to both the case ∗ = (s) and the case ∗ = {s}. The same convention also applies for other spaces associated with the two cases. All the spaces mentioned above carry natural topologies: s,L • D (K) is a Banach space when endowed with |·|s,L,K as a norm, • D (s)(K) is the projective limit (for “L → 0+”) of the spaces D s,L(K), whereas D {s}(K) is the inductive limit (for “L → ∞”) of the same spaces. The spaces D (s)(K) are FS (i.e., Fréchet-Schwartz), whereas the spaces D {s}(K) are DFS (duals of Fréchet–Schwartz). (The topological properties of these spaces are studied in [6].) • D {s}(U) is the inductive limit (for K ⊂ U) of the spaces D {s}(K), whereas D (s)(U) is the inductive limit (again for K ⊂ U) of the spaces D (s)(K). • We shall define topologies on E (s)(U) and E {s}(U) as follows. At first we define ∞ for K ⋐ U and L > 0 the space YK,L of restrictions to K of functions in C (U), which satisfy | f |s,L,K < ∞, endowed with the topology given by the semi-norm |·|s,L,K . Then, E (s)(U) = lim limY , E {s}(U) = lim limY . ←− ←− K,L ←− −→ K,L K⋐U L>0 K⋐U L>0 182 O. Liess and Y. Okada We have continuous inclusions D ∗(U) ⊂ E ∗(U) with dense image and D ∗(K) is the subspace of E ∗(U) (K ⊂ U) consisting of the functions with compact support lying in K.

  • Tempered Distributions and the Fourier Transform
    CHAPTER 1 Tempered distributions and the Fourier transform Microlocal analysis is a geometric theory of distributions, or a theory of geomet- ric distributions. Rather than study general distributions { which are like general continuous functions but worse { we consider more specific types of distributions which actually arise in the study of differential and integral equations. Distri- butions are usually defined by duality, starting from very \good" test functions; correspondingly a general distribution is everywhere \bad". The conormal dis- tributions we shall study implicitly for a long time, and eventually explicitly, are usually good, but like (other) people have a few interesting faults, i.e. singulari- ties. These singularities are our principal target of study. Nevertheless we need the general framework of distribution theory to work in, so I will start with a brief in- troduction. This is designed either to remind you of what you already know or else to send you off to work it out. (As noted above, I suggest Friedlander's little book [4] - there is also a newer edition with Joshi as coauthor) as a good introduction to distributions.) Volume 1 of H¨ormander'streatise [8] has all that you would need; it is a good general reference. Proofs of some of the main theorems are outlined in the problems at the end of the chapter. 1.1. Schwartz test functions To fix matters at the beginning we shall work in the space of tempered distribu- tions. These are defined by duality from the space of Schwartz functions, also called the space of test functions of rapid decrease.

CEKIC´ Course Summary Microlocal analysis studies singularities of distributions in phase space, by describing the behaviour of the singularity in both position and direction. It is a part of the field of partial differential equations, created by H¨ormander, Kohn, Nirenberg and others in 1960s and 1970s, and is used to study questions such as solvability, regularity and propagation of singularities of solutions of PDEs. To name a few other classical applications, it can be used to study asymptotics of eigenfunctions for elliptic operators, trace formulas and inverse problems. There have been recent exciting advances in the field and many applications to geometry and dynamical systems.

Nottingham, University Park, Nottingham, NG7 2RD, UK [email protected] R. F. Werner Inst. Theor. Physik, Leibniz Univ. Hannover, Appelstr. 2, 30167 Hannover, Germany [email protected] March 16, 2015 In this paper we introduce Schwartz operators as a non-commutative analog of Schwartz functions and provide a detailed discussion of their properties. We equip them in particular with a number of different (but equivalent) families of seminorms which turns the space of Schwartz operators into a Frechet space. The study of the topological dual leads to non-commutative tempered distributions which are discussed in detail as well. We show in particular that the latter can be identified with a certain class of quadratic forms, therefore making operations like products with bounded (and also some unbounded) operators and quantum harmonic analysis available to objects which are otherwise too singular for being a Hilbert space operator. Finally we show how the new methods can be applied by studying operator moment problems and convergence properties of fluctuation operators. 1 Introduction arXiv:1503.04086v1 [math-ph] 13 Mar 2015 The theory of tempered distributions is used extensively in various areas of mathematical physics, in order to regularise singular objects, most notably "delta-functions" that often appear as a result of some convenient idealisation (e.g. plane wave, or point interaction). The well-known intuitive idea is to make sense of the functional R2N φ(f) = S f(x)φ(x)dx, f ∈ S( ) (1) 1 to cases where φ is no longer a function, by making use of the highly regular behaviour of the 2N Schwartz functions f ∈ S(R ).

  • Kernel Theorems in Coorbit Theory
    TRANSACTIONS OF THE AMERICAN MATHEMATICAL SOCIETY, SERIES B Volume 6, Pages 346–364 (November 14, 2019) https://doi.org/10.1090/btran/42 KERNEL THEOREMS IN COORBIT THEORY PETER BALAZS, KARLHEINZ GROCHENIG,¨ AND MICHAEL SPECKBACHER Abstract. We prove general kernel theorems for operators acting between coorbit spaces. These are Banach spaces associated to an integrable repre- sentation of a locally compact group and contain most of the usual function spaces (Besov spaces, modulation spaces, etc.). A kernel theorem describes the form of every bounded operator between a coorbit space of test functions and distributions by means of a kernel in a coorbit space associated to the tensor product representation. As special cases we recover Feichtinger’s ker- nel theorem for modulation spaces and the recent generalizations by Cordero and Nicola. We also obtain a kernel theorem for operators between the Besov ˙ 0 ˙ 0 spaces B1,1 and B∞,∞. 1. Introduction Kernel theorems assert that every “reasonable” operator can be written as a “generalized” integral operator. For instance, the Schwartz kernel theorem states that a continuous linear operator A : S(Rd) →S(Rd) possesses a unique distribu- tional kernel K ∈S(R2d) such that (1) Af, g = K, g ⊗ f,f,g∈S(Rd) . If K is a locally integrable function, then Af, g = K(x, y)f(y)g(x)dydx, f, g ∈S(Rd), Rd and thus A has indeed the form of an integral operator. Similar kernel theorems hold for continuous operators from D(Rd) →D(Rd) [24, Theorem 5.2] and for Gelfand-Shilov spaces and their distribution spaces [21].

  • On the Laplacian on a Space of White Noise Functionals
    TSUKUBA J. MATH. Vol. 19 No. 1 (1995), 93―119 ON THE LAPLACIAN ON A SPACE OF WHITE NOISE FUNCTIONALS By Isamu Doku* §1. Introduction. We are greatly interested in the Laplacian on a space of white noise func- tionals. To have in mind aspects of application to mathematical physics, we can say that it is common in general to use the weak derivative Dona given basic Hilbert space, so as to define dv which just corresponds to the de Rham exterior differentialoperator. In doing so, one of the remarkable characteristics of our work consistsin adoption of the Hida differentialdt instead of D. This distinction from other related works does provide a framework of analysis equipped with the function for perception of the time t, with the result that it is converted into a more flexible and charming theory which enables us to treat time evolution directly. It can be said, therefore, that our work is suc- cessfulin deepening works about the general theory done by Arai-Mitoma [2], not only on a qualitative basis but also from the applicatory point of view in direct description of operators in terms of time evolution. The differentialdt has its adjoint operator df in Hida sense and it is called the Kubo operator. Indeed, df is realized by extending the functional space even into the widest one (E)*, where a Gelfand triple(E) C, (L2) Q (E)* is a fundamental setting in white noise analysis, in accordance with our more general choice of the basic Hilbert space H. On the contrary, we define the adjoint operator dp* of dp associated with dt without extending the space up to that much.

  • Native Banach Spaces for Splines and Variational Inverse Problems∗
    Native Banach spaces for splines and variational inverse problems∗ Michael Unser and Julien Fageoty April 25, 2019 Abstract We propose a systematic construction of native Banach spaces for general spline-admissible operators L. In short, the native space for L and the (dual) norm 0 is the largest space of functions f : d k · kX R R such that Lf 0 < , subject to the constraint that the growth-restricted! nullk spacekX of1L be finite-dimensional. This space, denoted by L0 , is specified as the dual of the pre-native space L, which is itself obtainedX through a suitable completion process. TheX main difference with prior constructions (e.g., reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces) is that our approach involves test functions rather than sums of atoms (e.g., kernels), which makes it applicable to a much broader class of norms, including total variation. Under specific admissibility and compatibility hypotheses, we lay out the direct-sum topology of L and L0 , and identify the whole family of equivalent norms. Our constructionX X ensures that the native space and its pre-dual are endowed with a fundamental Schwartz-Banach property. In practical terms, this means that L0 is rich enough to reproduce any function with an arbitrary degreeX of precision.

  • Index Theory of Uniform Pseudodifferential Operators
    Index theory of uniform pseudodifferential operators Alexander Engel Fakultät für Mathematik Universität Regensburg 93040 Regensburg, GERMANY [email protected] Abstract We generalize Roe’s index theorem for graded generalized Dirac operators on amenable manifolds to multigraded elliptic uniform pseudodifferential operators. This generalization will follow from a local index theorem that is valid on any man- ifold of bounded geometry. This local formula incorporates the uniform estimates that are present in the definition of our class of pseudodifferential operators. We will revisit Špakula’s uniform K-homology and show that multigraded elliptic uniform pseudodifferential operators naturally define classes in it. For this we will investigate uniform K-homology more closely, e.g., construct the external product and show invariance under weak homotopies. The latter will be used to refine and extend Špakula’s results about the rough Baum–Connes assembly map. We will identify the dual theory of uniform K-homology. We will give a simple definition of uniform K-theory for all metric spaces and in the case of manifolds of bounded geometry we will give an interpretation of it via vector bundles of bounded geometry. Using a version of Mayer–Vietoris induction that is adapted to our needs, we will prove Poincaré duality between uniform K-theory and uniform K-homology for spinc manifolds of bounded geometry. We will construct Chern characters from uniform K-theory to bounded de Rham cohomology and from uniform K-homology to uniform de Rham homology. Using the adapted Mayer–Vietoris induction we will also show that these Chern characters induce isomorphisms after a certain completion that also kills torsion.
