A Scaling Approach to Elliptic Theory for Geometrically-Natural Differential Operators with Sobolev-Type Coefficients (2306.15842v1)

Abstract: We develop local elliptic regularity for operators having coefficients in a range of Sobolev-type function spaces (Bessel potential, Sobolev-Slobodeckij, Triebel-Lizorkin, Besov) where the coefficients have a regularity structure typical of operators in geometric analysis. The proofs rely on a nonstandard technique using rescaling estimates and apply to operators having coefficients with low regularity. For each class of function space for an operator's coefficients, we exhibit a natural associated range of function spaces of the same type for the domain of the operator and we provide regularity inference along with interior estimates. Additionally, we present a unified set of multiplication results for the function spaces we consider.
