Asymptotic expansion of the spectral function of elliptic operators inR n

Let {E} be the spectral family of the operator corresponding to a self-adjoint second-adjoint second-order elliptic differential equation or to a first-order elliptic system inR ⁿ . The coefficients of the equations are assumed to be constant in a neighborhood of infinity and trapping rays are absent. We obtain the full asymptotic expansion as of the kernel e ¹ (x, y) of the operator dE/d in terms of rays going from the point y into the point x.Translated from Trudy Seminara imeni I. G.
