Functions of pseudodifferential operators of nonpositive order (Q1815293)

The authors give a meaning to the Bochner integral \[ f(A)=(2\pi)^{-1/2}\int e^{itA}\widehat f(t)\,dt, \] where \(A\) is a pseudodifferential operator in the Hörmander class \(L^m_{\rho,\delta}\), \(m\leq 0\), \(0<\rho\leq 1\), \(0\leq\delta<1\), \(\delta\leq\rho\), in \(\mathbb R^n\), assumed to be selfadjoint as a bounded operator in \(L^2(\mathbb{R}^n)\). The function \(f\in C^\infty\) is defined in a neighborhood of the spectrum of \(A\). Namely, they obtain that \(f(A)\) is a pseudodifferential operator in \(L^0_{1,\delta}+L^m_{\rho,\delta}\). Key point of the proof is an application of results of \textit{R. Beals} [Duke Math. J. 44, 45--57 (1977; Zbl 0353.35088)] and \textit{J. Ueberberg} [Manuscr. Math. 61, No. 4, 459--475 (1988; Zbl 0674.47033)], concerning characterization of pseudodifferential operators in terms of the action of certain commutators.
