Pseudo-differential extension for graded nilpotent Lie groups

From MaRDI portal
Publication:6148765



Abstract: Classical pseudo-differential operators of order zero on a graded nilpotent Lie group G form a ∗-subalgebra of the bounded operators on L2(G). We show that its C∗-closure is an extension of a noncommutative algebra of principal symbols by compact operators. As a new approach, we use the generalized fixed point algebra of an mathbbR>0-action on a certain ideal in the C∗-algebra of the tangent groupoid of G. The action takes the graded structure of G into account. Our construction allows to compute the K-theory of the algebra of symbols.


Summary: Classical pseudo-differential operators of order zero on a graded nilpotent Lie group \(G\) form a \(^\ast\)-subalgebra of the bounded operators on \(L^2(G)\). We show that its \(\mathrm{C}^\ast\)-closure is an extension of a noncommutative algebra of principal symbols by compact operators. As a new approach, we use the generalized fixed point algebra of an \(\mathbb{R}_{>0}\)-action on a certain ideal in the \(\mathrm{C}^\ast\)-algebra of the tangent groupoid of \(G\). The action takes the graded structure of into account. Our construction allows to compute the K-theory of the algebra of symbols.
