Abstract
Consider an elliptic self-adjoint pseudodifferential operator A acting on m-columns of half-densities on a closed manifold M, whose principal symbol is assumed to have simple eigenvalues. We show existence and uniqueness of m orthonormal pseudodifferential projections commuting with the operator A and provide an algorithm for the computation of their full symbols, as well as explicit closed formulae for their subprincipal symbols. Pseudodifferential projections yield a decomposition of L 2 (M) into invariant subspaces under the action of A modulo C∞(M). Furthermore, they allow us to decompose A into m distinct sign definite pseudodifferential operators. Finally, we represent the modulus and the Heaviside function of the operator A in terms of pseudodifferential projections and discuss physically meaningful examples.
