Geometric quantities associated to differential operators

From MaRDI portal





Let \(L= \text{Vect}(M)\) be the Lie algebra of vector fields on a manifold \(M\), \(F_{\lambda}\) the space of fields of tensor density of weight \(-{\lambda}\), \(D_{\lambda , \mu}^p\) the space of differential operators of order at most \(p\) that map \(F_{\lambda}\) to \(F_{\mu}\). The author computes all \(L\)-invariant mappings from \(D_{\lambda ,\mu}^p\) onto \(F_{\nu}\). In particular, the space of invariant operators from \(D_{\lambda ,\mu}^p\) to \(F_{\mu -\lambda +p}\) is one dimensional. Also there is a unique, up to a constant, invariant mapping from \(D_{\lambda ,\mu}^p\) to \(F_{\mu -\lambda +p-2}\) provided \(p>2\).
