Abstract

The paper is concerned with various aspects of the spectral structure of the operator. It is assumed to be formally self-adjoint in L2,(Rn), n≥2. The real coefficients aj,k(x)= aj,k(x) are assumed to be bounded and H is assumed to be uniformly elliptic and to coincide with -Δ outside of a ball. A Limiting Absorption Principle (LAP) is proved in the framework of weighted Sobolev spaces. It is then used for (i) A general eigenfunction expansion theorem and (ii) Global spacetime estimates for the associated (inhomogeneous) generalized wave equation.
