The authors are interested in some aspects of so-called elliptic \textit{cone operators}. A \textit{cone differential operator} on a smooth compact \(n\)-manifold \(M\), with boundary \(\partial M\), is a linear differential operator with smooth coefficients in the interior of \(M\) which locally near the boundary is of the form \(x^{-m}\sum_{k+| \alpha| \leq m}a_{k\alpha}(x,y)D^\alpha_y(x D_x)^{k}\), where \(m\) is a positive integer and \((x,y^1,\dots,y^{n-1})\) are coordinates on \(M\) adapted to the boundary, i.e., \(\partial M\) is identified by the equation \(x=0\). Such an operator is called \textit{c-elliptic} if it is elliptic in the interior in the usual sense, and near the boundary \(\sum_{k+| \alpha| =m}a_{k\alpha}(x,y)\eta^\alpha\xi^k\) is an elliptic symbol up to \(\{x=0\}\). The main result of the paper is a proof of the existence of sectors of minimal growth for general closed extensions of elliptic operators \(A\) under natural ellipticity conditions. Emphasis is put on the characterization of the resolvent \((A-\lambda)^{-1}\), as \(| \lambda| \to\infty\). The paper after a detailed introduction contains five other sections. 2. Preliminaries. 3. Closed extensions. 4. Ray conditions. 5. Parametrix construction. 6. Resolvents. An appendix on the invertibility of Fredholm families concludes this work.
