On the action of pseudo-differential operators on Gevrey spaces

Abstract: In this paper we study the action of pseudo-differential operators acting on Gevrey spaces. We introduce classes of classical symbols with spatial Gevrey regularity. As the spatial Gevrey regularity of a symbol $p(\cdot,\xi)$ may depend on the frequency $\xi$, the action of the associated pseudo-differential operator $op(p)$ may induce a loss of regularity. The proof is based on a para-product decomposition.
