Abstract

The paper is concerned with various aspects of the spectral structure of the operator (Formula Presented.) It is assumed to be formally self-adjoint in L2(ℝn),n ≥ 2. The real coefficients aj,k(x)= ak,j(x) are assumed to be bounded and H is assumed to be uniformly elliptic and to coincide with −∆ 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.
