Propagation of analytic and Gevrey singularities for operators with non-involutive characteristics By Massimo CICOGNANI and Luisa ZANGHIRATI
I. Introduction
In this paper we cosider a class of analytic operators with multiple non-involutive characteristics and study the propagation of analytic and Gevrey singularities. To state precisely our result, we begin by recalling that f E C (X), X an open set in Rn, is said to be of Gevrey class G', 1 1 . If l< d then we have Go Y(X)OE d

The d-wave front set WFd(f) of f E Go "(X ), d >1, is defined as follows: for a fixed (xo, eo)E T*(X )\0, we say that (xo, eo)qWFd(f) if there exist Go (X) with 0(x)=1 in a neighborhood of xo, and positive constants C, E such that the Fourier transform (çbf)^ of Of satisfies: ( d )

If f G o "(X), d >1, the projection on X of WFdi(f ), for 1 d 1 d, is the di-singular support of f , th a t is the complement of the largest open set in X where f is of G ' class (see for example HOrmander [6] for this and other properties of d-wave front sets).

assuming u regular in Lh U Sh for some h and k, has been studied by several authors in the D ' framework. We refer to Hanges [5], Ivrii [9] and Melrose [10] for the case m = 1, and to Bove -Lewis-Parenti [2] fo r m > 1. Their results are similar to Theorem 1.1 with WFd replaced by the C wave front set. We note that -
(1.10

for all f E Go( d r (X ), hence we can not replace Lh U Sk by LIU L2 or by S1U S2 in Theorem 1.1. The problem of the propagation of the singularities for the operator (1.8) with (1.9), assuming u regular in Li U L2 or Si U S2, has been studied in [5] and [2] in the D ' framework. Recently Uchikoshi [13] has considered the same problem in the analytic framework for an operator of the form (1.8), with order Q., < j - 1 , in the case (Li U L2)C1 WFi(u)= 0 . In [13] the result of Theorem 1.1 with d =1 is not given. We will consider the extension of Theorem 1.1 to operators of the more general form (1.8) in a future work. The plan of the proof of Theorem 1.1 is as follows: in Section 2 suitable ultradistribution kernels are defined, and their singularities estimated, by using the theory of symbols of infinite order of Zanghirati [14] and CattabrigaZ anghirati[3]. W e p ro ve in Section 3 the existence of m icrolocal parametrices for the operator P with kernels of the type studied in the previous section. The estimate of the wave front sets of the kernels yields Theorem 1.1. 2. Symbols of infinite order and ultradistribution kernels
First step of the proof of Theorem 1.1 is the introduction of a class of symbols.

S (Rn) is one of the classes of symbols of infinite order studied in [14] and [3]. W e refer to these papers for the proofs not given here and more details.

Remark 3 .2 . In inequality (3.8) we have 8! instead of firi; therefore A satisfies a condition stronger than (2.14) that permits us to obtain also for the analytic wave front set WFI(EA ) the same estimates given for WFd(EA+) in Proposition 2.11 and in the following part of Section 2 (See also Boutet de Monvel [1]). +
We can construct other right param etries for T , b y u sin g the same methods. More preciselly, if we introduce operators of the type E = liM 0 S f e' (x "› A (t + ip, s+ i,u, x , 0)dt9 -
we have four right parametrices with kernels of the form H(t —s)EA or H(s —t)EA . Also four left parametrices with kernels of the same form exist, because the transposed operator T * has the same properties of T . A ctu ally we consider T as an operator from Go [Fi, m] to Go "[Fi, m] and, taking a left parametrix E A , we have E A T = I . We can prove Theorem 1.1 by using these left parametrices. ±

Considering the left param etrix EA with kernel H (t —s)EA+, we have U = E A T V . Thus zolWF0( U ) follows from the assumption (3.9), the remark 3.2 in the case d=1, and the estimate (2.23). The other cases of Theorem 1.1 can be proved in a similar way by choosing the appropriate left parametrix.
