Conformally covariant pseudo-differential operators (Q1591527)

Conformal Geometry has found applications in the study of general relativity, in the study of the famous Yamabe problem, as well as in other areas. The study of conformally covariant operators was traditionally focused on differential operators. This paper describes a new construction of a family of intrinsically defined conformally covariant pseudodifferential operators on arbitrarily curved manifolds. The construction is based on the operators of Graham, Jenne, Mason and Sparling.
