Pseudodifferential and Fourier integral operators on manifolds (58J40)

Abstract: We give, as $L$ grows to infinity, an explicit lower bound of order $L^{n/m}$ for the expected Betti numbers of the vanishing locus of a random linear combination of eigenvectors of $P$ with eigenvalues below $L$. Here, $P$ denotes an elliptic self-adjoint pseudo-differential operator of order $mextgreater0$, bounded from below and acting on the sections of a Riemannian line bundle over a smooth closed $n$-dimensional manifold $M$ equipped with some Lebesgue measure. In fact, for every closed hypersurface $Sigma$ of $mathbb{R}^n$, we prove that there exists a positive constant $p_{S}igma$ depending only on $Sigma$, such that for every large enough $L$ and every $xinM$, a component diffeomorphic to $Sigma$ appears with probability at least $p_{S}igma$ in the vanishing locus of a random section and in the ball of radius $L^{-1/m}$ centered at $x$. These results apply in particular to Laplace-Beltrami and Dirichlet-to-Neumann operators.
