A hitchhiker's guide to first-order elliptic boundary value problems

Christian Baer, Lashi Bandara

To empower the mathematical hitchhiker wishing to use operator methods in geometry and topology, we present this user's guide to first-order elliptic boundary value problems. Exist…

The space of rough Riemannian metrics

Lashi Bandara, Anisa Hassan

On a smooth connected manifold, we consider all possible locally elliptic and locally bounded measurable coefficient Riemannian metrics called rough Riemannian metrics. We equip th…

Geometric singularities and Hodge theory

Lashi Bandara, Georges Habib

We consider smooth vector bundles over smooth manifolds equipped with non-smooth geometric data. For nilpotent differential operators acting on these bundles, we show that the kern…

First-order elliptic boundary value problems on manifolds with non-compact boundary

Christian Baer, Lashi Bandara

We consider first-order elliptic differential operators acting on vector bundles over smooth manifolds with smooth boundary, which is permitted to be noncompact. Under very mild as…

The relative index theorem for general first-order elliptic operators

Lashi Bandara

The relative index theorem is proved for general first-order elliptic operators that are complete and coercive at infinity over measured manifolds. This extends the original result…

Realisations of elliptic operators on compact manifolds with boundary

Lashi Bandara, Magnus Goffeng, Hemanth Saratchandran

This paper investigates realisations of elliptic differential operators of general order on manifolds with boundary following the approach of Bär-Ballmann to first order elliptic o…

Boundary value problems for general first-order elliptic differential operators

Christian Baer, Lashi Bandara

We study boundary value problems for first-order elliptic differential operators on manifolds with compact boundary. The adapted boundary operator need not be selfadjoint and the b…

Eigenvalue asymptotics for weighted Laplace equations on rough Riemannian manifolds with boundary

Lashi Bandara, Medet Nursultanov, Julie Rowlett

Our topological setting is a smooth compact manifold of dimension two or higher with smooth boundary. Although this underlying topological structure is smooth, the Riemannian metri…

Functional calculus and harmonic analysis in geometry

Lashi Bandara

In this short survey article, we showcase a number of non-trivial geometric problems that have recently been resolved by marrying methods from functional calculus and real-variable…

Heat kernels and regularity for rough metrics on smooth manifolds

Lashi Bandara, Paul Bryan

We consider rough metrics on smooth manifolds and corresponding Laplacians induced by such metrics. We demonstrate that globally continuous heat kernels exist and are Hölder contin…

Riesz continuity of the Atiyah-Singer Dirac operator under perturbations of local boundary conditions

Lashi Bandara, Andreas Rosén

On a smooth complete Riemannian spin manifold with smooth compact boundary, we demonstrate that the Atiyah-Singer Dirac operator in depen…

Self-adjointness of the Gaffney Laplacian on vector bundles

Lashi Bandara, Ognjen Milatovic

We study the Gaffney Laplacian on a vector bundle equipped with a compatible metric and connection over a Riemannian manifold that is possibly geodesically incomplete. Under the hy…

Rough metrics on manifolds and quadratic estimates

Lashi Bandara

We study the persistence of quadratic estimates related to the Kato square root problem across a change of metric on smooth manifolds by defining a class of Riemannian-like metrics…
