In the case of separation of variables, namely, $C(t,x,D_x) = a(t)p(x,D_x)+ib(t)q(x,D_x)$, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for the global hypoellipticity of $L$. In particular, we show that, under suitable conditions, the famous (P) condition of Niremberg-Treves is neither necessary nor sufficient to guarantee the global hypoellipticity of $L$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-07-31T13:56:17.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "35F05", "35S05", "58J40" ], "keywords": [ "closed smooth manifolds", "first-order operators", "address global hypoellipticity issues", "first order pseudo-differential operator", "main goal" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015arXiv150708880D" } } }
