Global estimates in Sobolev spaces for homogeneous Hörmander sums of squares

Abstract: Let

m a t h c a l L = s u m_{j = 1}^{m} X_{j}^{2}

be a H"ormander sum of squares of vector fields in space

m a t h b b R^{n}

, where any

X_{j}

is homogeneous of degree

1

with respect to a family of non-isotropic dilations in space. In this paper we prove global estimates and regularity properties for

m a t h c a l L

in the

X

-Sobolev spaces

W_{X}^{k, p} (m a t h b b R^{n})

, where

X = X_{1}, l d o t s, X_{m}

. In our approach, we combine local results for general H"ormander sums of squares, the homogeneity property of the

X_{j}

's, plus a global lifting technique for homogeneous vector fields.
