Paradifferential Calculus in Gevrey Classes By Chen Hua and Luigi Rodino
Abstract
We present a paradifferential calculus adapted to the study of nonlinear partial differential equations in Gevrey classes. We give an application concerning Gevrey microregularity of the solutions of fully nonlinear equations at elliptic points.

Introduction
Bony [4], 1981, presented a version of the pseudo-differential calculus, the so-called paradifferential calculus, adapted to the study of the nonlinear equations (1.1)
F [u] = F (x, u, · · · , ∂ α u, · · · )|α|≤m = 0.
The basic idea was to write (1.2)
F [u] = TF 0 (u) u + r,
where TF 0 (u) is the paradifferential operator having as symbol the linearization F 0 of F at u, and r is a smooth error. Precisely, if u is assumed of Sobolev class H s+m , s > n/2, then r ∈ H 2s−n/2 . Through (1.2) one is reduced to the study of the paradifferential equation TF 0 (u) u ∈ H 2s−n/2 and obtains linear-type results of existence, regularity and propagation. Assume now F is analytic in the respective variables, and let u be of Gevrey class Gσ , i.e. locally (1.3)
|∂ α u(x)| ≤ C |α|+1 (α!)σ .
Naively, one could try to reproduce for the Gevrey scale Gσ , 1 < σ < ∞, the results of Bony for the scale H s , n/2 < s < ∞. It is easily seen, however, that the error r in (1.2) turns out to be of class Gσ , with apparent no gain of regularity. This corresponds to the known impossibility of obtaining linear-type results of propagation for (1.1) in the analytic-Gevrey category, but for very Communicated by Prof. K.

special equations, cf. Alinhac and M´etivier [1], Godin [8], Chen and Rodino [5], [6] and Sasaki [17]. Here we propose a different approach, developing some preliminary results s of Chen and Rodino [5]. Namely, we refer to the Sobolev-Gevrey spaces Hτ,σ , 1 < σ < ∞, τ > 0, s ∈ IR, defined by (1.4)
1/σ s =k exp[τ hDi k u kHτ,σ ]u kH s < ∞.
Spaces of this type have been already studied, for example, in Kajitani and Nishitani [13], Kajitani and Wakabayashi [14] and Taniguchi [18]. s s , n/2 < . For fixed σ and τ , the scale Hτ,σ Locally we have Gσ = ∪τ,s Hτ,σ s < ∞, is indeed appropriate for the paradifferential calculus, the error r in 2s−n/2 s (1.2) belonging to Hτ,σ , if u ∈ Hτ,σ . As an application, we may extend to the fully nonlinear case the result of micro-elliptic Gevrey regularity proved in [5] for the semilinear equations. s 2s−λ Namely, from u ∈ Hτ,σ we deduce u ∈ Hτ,σ , for some fixed constant λ, microlocally in (1.1) at any elliptic point. Though very weak, this result is nearly the best possible; in fact, starting from a solution u ∈ Gσ , there is no 0 hope in general of reaching Gσ regularity, where 1 ≤ σ 0 < σ, as in the linear case, see the counter-examples in [5] and [6]. Other possible applications in the nonlinear setting, which we leave to the future, concern Gevrey propagation, cf. Bony [4] and H¨ormander [11] for the H s category, existence of Gevrey Riemannian embeddings, cf. H¨ormander [10] and Chen and Rodino [7], existence of Gevrey solutions for equations with multiple characteristics, cf. Gramchev and Rodino [9], and weakly hyperbolic Cauchy problems, cf. Mizohata [15] and Kajitani [12]. Finally, we observe that part of the arguments in the following may keep valid for other weighted Sobolev spaces; essentially, one can replace the operator exp[τ hDi1/σ ] in (1.4) with a more general operator Φ(D), provided Φ(ξ + η) ≤ CΦ(ξ)Φ(η). The paper is organized as follows: in Section 2, we recall the results of s spaces; in Section 3, we [5] about Littlewood-Paley decomposition and Hτ,σ treat some classes of Gevrey pseudo-differential operators; in Sections 4 and 5, we study paraproducts and paradifferential operators, respectively, in the s Hτ,σ frame; in Section 6, we present the above-mentioned application to microellipticity. 2.
Gevrey-Sobolev spaces and non-linear operations Let σ > 1, τ, s ∈ IR; we introduce Gevrey-Sobolev spaces as follows: s 0 Hτ,σ (IRn ) = {u ∈ S−τ,σ (IRn ), exp[τ hDi1/σ ]u ∈ H s (IRn )},
0 where hDi = (1 − ∆)1/2 , the space Sτ,σ is defined as the dual of Sτ,σ , which in turn for τ ≥ 0 is defined by inverse Fourier transform from
Sbτ,σ = {v(ξ) ∈ C ∞ (IRn ) | exp[τ hξi1/σ ]v(ξ) ∈ S(IRn )};

for τ < 0, the space Sτ,σ is defined by transposition of inverse Fourier transform s from Sbτ,σ (cf. [14]). We shall also write Hτ,σ for short. The infinite order 1/σ pseudo-differential operator exp[τ hDi ] is defined by Fourier transform as usual; see for example Rodino [16]. s We define the norms in Hτ,σ by 1/σ s = k exp[τ hDi k u kHτ,σ ]ukH s . s Hτ,σ is a Hilbert space with inner product s hu, viHτ,σ = hexp[τ hDi1/σ ]u, exp[τ hDi1/σ ]viH s .
Taking K > 1 a constant, for p ∈ Z+ , we denote: Cp = {ξ ∈ IRn , K −1 2p ≤ |ξ| ≤ K2p+1 }, C−1 = B(0, K) = {ξ ∈ IRn , |ξ| ≤ K}. n Thus {Cp }∞ p=−1 is a circular cover of IRξ . From Bony [4], we have the following result:
Lemma 2.1. There exists N1 ∈ N, depending only on K, such that for any Cp the number of q, such that Cq ∩ Cp 6= ∅, is at most N1 . We have the following dyadic partition of unity, see again Bony [4]: Lemma 2.2. There exist ϕ, ψ ∈ C0∞ (IRn ), supp ψ ⊂ C−1 , supp ϕ ⊂ C0 , such that for any ξ ∈ IRn , and any l ∈ N, we have (2.1)

The Littlewood-Paley decomposition (or say dyadic decomposition) s {up }∞ p=−1 for a function u ∈ Hτ,σ will be defined as follows: u−1 (x) = ψ(D)u(x), up (x) = ϕ(2−p D)u(x) for p ≥ 0. P∞ 0 It is easy to prove that the series u = p=−1 up is convergent in the S−τ,σ topology. In fact we can use the dyadic decomposition to characterize the Gevrey-Sobolev spaces. (2.3)
Theorem 2.1. Let s > 0, σ > 1 and τ ∈ IR; then the following conditions are equivalent: s (a) u ∈ Hτ,σ (IRn ); P∞ (b) u = p=−1 up , where up ∈ C ∞ and supp u ˆp ⊂ Cp , satisfying kup kL2τ,σ 0 ≤ cp 2−ps with {cp } ∈ `2 , L2τ,σ = Hτ,σ ;

P∞ (c) u = p=−1 up , where up ∈ C ∞ and supp u ˆp ⊂ B(0, K1 2p ) for some K1 > 0, satisfying kup kL2τ,σ ≤ cp 2−ps , {cp } ∈ `2 ; P∞ ∞ (d) u = and for any α ∈ Zn+ , we have p=−1 up , where up ∈ C kDα up kL2τ,σ ≤ cpα 2−ps+p|α| and {cpα }p ∈ `2 . It is obvious that the proof of Theorem 2.1, for τ > 0, may be deduced directly from the proof of [5, Theorem 1.1], similarly we can prove the case for τ ≤ 0 as well. Remark 2.1.
In (d) it is actually sufficient to argue for |α| ≤ s + 1.
s can be estimated in (b) and (c) by Remark 2.2. The P norm kukHτ,σ k(cp )k`2 and in (d) by |α|≤s+1 k(cp,α )p k`2 . The equivalence between (a) and (b) keeps valid for s ∈ IR.
Remark 2.3. Let us recall, see for example Rodino [16], that every ϕ ∈ Gσ0 (IRn ) = Gσ (IRn ) ∩ C0∞ (IRn ), σ > 1, satisfies for suitable positive constants C and ε: |ϕ(ξ)| ˆ ≤ C exp[−ε|ξ|1/σ ].

In the opposite direction, it is easy to see that s Hτ,σ (IRn ) ⊂ Gσ (IRn ) for all τ > 0, s ∈ IR; cf. the proof of Theorem 1.6.1, (iii) in [16]. 0 s s . Thus and ϕ ∈ Gσ0 (IRn ), 1 < σ 0 < σ, then ϕu ∈ Hτ,σ Observe if u ∈ Hτ,σ we can define Gevrey locally Sobolev spaces as follows (cf. [5]): s Definition 2.1. We set Hτ,σ,loc to be the space of all Gevrey ultra0 0 n distributions u ∈ Dσ0 (IR ) such that for every ϕ ∈ Gσ0 (IRn ) with 1 < σ 0 < σ, s we have ϕu ∈ Hτ,σ .

Let (x0 , ξ 0 ) ∈ T ∗ IRn \{0}; we introduce Gevrey microlocally (i.e. near (x0 , ξ 0 )) Sobolev spaces as follows: s Definition 2.3. We write u ∈ Hτ,σ (x0 , ξ 0 ) if there exists Vx0 and a 0 0 n conic neighborhood Γ0 of ξ in IR \{0}, such that for all ϕ ∈ Gσ0 (Vx0 ), 1 < σ 0 < σ, and every ψ ∈ C ∞ (IRnξ ), 0-order homogeneous in ξ for large |ξ| with s . supp ψ ⊂ Γ0 , we have ψ(D)(ϕu) ∈ Hτ,σ

Definition 2.4. For u ∈ Dσ0 (IRn ) we write (x0 , ξ 0 ) 6∈ WF σ u if there exσ n ist ϕ ∈ G0 (IR ), with ϕ = 1 in a neighborhood of x0 , and a conic neighborhood Γ0 of ξ 0 such that for positive constants C, ε: (2.5)
|(ϕu)ˆ(ξ)| ≤ C exp[−ε|ξ|1/σ ], ξ ∈ Γ0 .
Remark 2.4. Equivalently (cf. Rodino [16, Lemma 1.7.3]), we may say that (x0 , ξ 0 ) 6∈ WF σ u if there exist Vx0 and Γ0 such that for all ϕ ∈ Gσ0 (Vx0 ) and every ψ ∈ C ∞ (IRnξ ), 0-order homogeneous in ξ for large |ξ| with supp ψ ⊂ Γ0 , we have for some C, ε > 0: (2.6)
|(ψ(ξ)(ϕu))ˆ(ξ)| ≤ C exp[−ε|ξ|1/σ ].
s It is then clear that (x0 , ξ 0 ) 6∈ WF σ0 u for 1 < σ 0 < σ implies u ∈ Hτ,σ (x0 , ξ 0 ) for all τ > 0, s ∈ IR.
We have the following Hausdorff-Young inequality: Theorem 2.2.
Let u ∈ L1 , v ∈ L2τ,σ , τ ∈ IR, σ > 1, then ku ∗ vkL2τ,σ ≤ kukL1 · kvkL2τ,σ .
Moreover we can easily extend the results in [5, Theorems 2.1 through 2.3] to the case of τ ≤ 0, i.e. we have the following results: s Theorem 2.3. We have u ∈ Hτ,σ (x0 , ξ 0 ) (τ , s ∈ IR, σ > 1) if and only if there exist Vx0 and a decomposition
u = u1 + u2 , for x ∈ Vx0 , s where u1 ∈ Hτ,σ (IRn ) and (x0 , ξ 0 ) 6∈ WF σ0 (u2 ) for 1 < σ 0 < σ.

It is important for us to consider when a function space would become an algebra, which in particular is useful to study nonlinear partial differential equations. Here for Gevrey-Sobolev spaces we have (similar to [5]): Theorem 2.6. Let s > n/2 and τ ≥ 0, then s (a) Hτ,σ is an algebra, and there exists C > 0 such that for all u, v ∈ s Hτ,σ , s > n/2: s s s . kuvkHτ,σ ≤ CkukHτ,σ kvkHτ,σ (b) algebra. 3.

Some classes of Gevrey pseudo-differential operators We first define some classes of Gevrey symbols.
Definition 3.1. Let m ∈ IR, τ ≥ 0, σ > 1 and ε > 0. We denote by m,ε , the class of all the symbols p(x, ξ) ∈ C ∞ (IRn × IRn ) such that Sτ,σ (3.1)
kDξβ p(·, ξ)kH n/2+ε ≤ cβ hξim−|β| , τ,σ
for constants cβ independent of ξ ∈ IRn . Denoting by pˆ(η, ξ) the partial Fourier transform of p(x, ξ) with respect to the first variables, we can re-write (3.1) as (3.2)
k exp[τ hDx i1/σ ]Dξβ p(x, ξ)kH n/2+ε (IRnx ) = k exp[τ hηi1/σ ]hηin/2+ε Dξβ pˆ(η, ξ)kL2 (IRnη ) ≤ cβ hξim−|β| .
m,ε In our setting the classes Sτ,σ play the role of symbols with “limited smoothm,ε and Σm,ε ness”; they will contain the subclasses lτ,σ τ,σ of the Gevrey paradifferential symbols, see the next sections for precise definitions. Here let us fix attention on the corresponding class of “smooth” symbols. m Definition 3.2. Let m ∈ IR, τ ≥ 0, σ > 1. We denote by Sτ,σ the class m,ε m given by ∩ε>0 Sτ,σ ; i.e. p(x, ξ) ∈ Sτ,σ if (3.1), or (3.2), is valid for every ε > 0. m Equivalent definitions for Sτ,σ are obtained by imposing for every α, β:

For later reference we also introduce more general classes of ρ, δ-type. Definition 3.4. Let m ∈ IR, τ ≥ 0, σ > 1, 0 ≤ ρ ≤ 1, 0 ≤ δ ≤ 1. We m denote by Sτ,σ,ρ,δ the class of all p(x, ξ) ∈ C ∞ (IRn × IRn ) satisfying for every α, β kDxα Dξβ p(·, ξ)kL2τ,σ ≤ cαβ hξim−ρ|β|+δ|α| .

Proofs will follow closely the calculus for pseudo-differential operators with limited Sobolev smoothness, see for example Beals [2], Beals and Reed [3] and Taylor [19]. In particular the following lemma, taken from Beals and Reed [3], will be very useful in our context. Lemma 3.1. Suppose that Z Z C 2 = sup |g(λ, ξ)|2 dλ < ∞ and K 2 = sup |G(ξ, η)|2 dξ < ∞. ξ∈IRn

We shall apply again Lemma 3.1, all the terms there depending on the parameter ζ with uniformly bounded norms. Namely, we set h(ξ, ζ) = pe2 (ξ, ζ)hζi−m2 hξiL with L2 -norm with respect to ξ bounded uniformly with respect to ζ, for any L; moreover g(λ, ξ, ζ) = pe1 (λ, ζ + ξ)hζ + ξi−m1 λM with L2 -norm with respect to λ bounded uniformly with respect to ζ and ξ, for any M . Finally, we take G(ξ, η, ζ) = H(ξ, η)hηis hζi−m1 hξi−L hζ + ξim1 hη − ξi−M , for which

if L and M have been chosen sufficiently large. From Lemma 3.1 we therefore deduce that the L2 -norm with respect to η of (3.10) is bounded, uniformly with respect to ζ. We pass now to prove the asymptotic formula in (2). As standard in the pseudo-differential calculus, after Taylor expanding p1 (x, ζ + ξ) in (3.9) with respect to ξ, we are reduced to consider the remainder rN (x, ζ) =

Repeating the preceding arguments, and in particular applying Lemma 3.1 with ζ and t as parameters, we get easily the conclusion. −∞ s m Corollary 3.1. If u ∈ Hτ,σ , u ∈ Hτ,σ (x0 ) and P has symbol in Sτ,σ , s−m then P u ∈ Hτ,σ (x0 ).

Writing φ0 P u = φ0 P φu + φ0 P (1 − φ)u, applying Theorem 3.1 to the first term in the right hand side and (3.8) in s−m s−m Theorem 3.2 to the second term, we get φ0 P u ∈ Hτ,σ , hence P u ∈ Hτ,σ (x0 ). −∞ s Corollary 3.2. If u ∈ Hτ,σ , u ∈ Hτ,σ (x0 , ξ 0 ) and P has symbol in 0 s−m then P u ∈ Hτ,σ (x0 , ξ ).

Proof. Let ψ(ξ), ψ 0 (ξ) ∈ C ∞ (IRn ) be 0-order homogeneous for large |ξ| with ψ(ξ) = 1 in a conic neighborhood Γ of ξ 0 and supp ψ 0 ⊂ Γ. Let φ, φ0 be s as in the preceding proof, such that ψ(D)(φu) ∈ Hτ,σ . The conclusion is easily obtained by writing ψ 0 (D)(φ0 P u) = ψ 0 (D)φ0 P (ψ(D)φu) + ψ 0 (D)φ0 P (1 − ψ(D)φ)u and applying (3.8) to the second term in the right hand side. m Given Ω open subset of IRn , the class of symbols Sτ,σ (Ω) is the set of all 0 ∞ n m p(x, ξ) ∈ C (Ω × IR ) such that φ(x)p(x, ξ) ∈ Sτ,σ for every φ ∈ Gσ0 (Ω), 1 < m,ε m m σ 0 < σ. Similarly we define Sτ,σ (Ω), Sτ,σ,cl (Ω) and Sτ,σ,ρ,δ (Ω). The preceding Theorems 3.1 and 3.2 have obvious variants for the corresponding pseudodifferential operators. P∞ m Let p(x, ξ) ∼ j=0 pm−j (x, ξ) in Sτ,σ,cl (Ω) be elliptic, i.e. for every K ⊂⊂ Ω we have |pm (x, ξ)| ≥ cK |ξ|m , x ∈ K, ξ ∈ IRn , −m for a suitable positive constant cK . Then q−m (x, ξ) = (pm (x, ξ))−1 ∈ Sτ,σ (Ω) for large ξ and we may recursively construct as standard q(x, ξ) ∼ P∞ −m q (x, ξ) in S (Ω), such that q#p = 1, p#q = 1. From (2) in j=0 −m−j τ,σ,cl Theorem 3.2 we therefore obtain: m Theorem 3.3. Let p(x, ξ) ∈ Sτ,σ,cl (Ω) be elliptic in Ω. Assume P = +∞ p(x, D) is properly supported, i.e. it is well defined as a map P : Hτ,σ,loc (Ω) → +∞ −∞ −∞ Hτ,σ,loc (Ω), Hτ,σ,loc (Ω) → Hτ,σ,loc (Ω), preserving compactness of supports. Then for P there exists a properly supported parametrix Q = q(x, D), q(x, ξ) ∈ −m Sτ,σ,cl (Ω); namely QP = I + R1 , P Q = I + R2 , where R1 and R2 have symbols −∞ in Sτ,σ (Ω). m be elliptic in a neighborhood of x0 . Corollary 3.3. Let p(x, ξ) ∈ Sτ,σ,cl −∞ s s+m Then u ∈ Hτ,σ , P u ∈ Hτ,σ (x0 ) imply u ∈ Hτ,σ (x0 ).
The proof is by Theorem 3.3, Corollary 3.1 and Theorem 3.1. Using Corollary 3.2 and constructing microlocal parametrices, we deduce similarly the following micro-regularity result.

m Corollary 3.4. Let p(x, ξ) ∈ Sτ,σ,cl satisfy pm (x0 , ξ 0 ) 6= 0 for some −∞ s s+m x0 ∈ Ω, ξ 0 6= 0. Then u ∈ Hτ,σ , P u ∈ Hτ,σ (x0 , ξ 0 ) imply u ∈ Hτ,σ (x0 , ξ 0 ).
Comments 3.1. In the classes presented here we require only C ∞ regularity with respect to ξ. The corresponding symbols are comparable, for example, with those in Taniguchi [18] defined by the estimates (3.11)
|Dxα Dξβ p(x, ξ)| ≤ cβ M −|α| α!σ hξim−|β| .
m Namely, if (3.11) is satisfied we have p(x, ξ) ∈ Sτ,σ for a small τ > 0. We point out that, with respect to the standard calculus requiring also Gevrey estimates in ξ, cf. Rodino [16] and the references there, our present −∞ frame. More precisely, if regularizing operators R are such only in the Hτ,σ −∞ −∞ ∞ R = r(x, D) with r ∈ Sτ,σ , we have R : Hτ,σ → Hτ,σ , but for f ∈ E 0 (IRn ) ∞ n ∞ or even f ∈ C0 (IR ), in general Rf ∈ C is not of Gevrey class, neither the possible Gevrey local regularities and micro-regularities of f are preserved m under applications of R or P = p(x, D) with symbol p ∈ Sτ,σ .

Gevrey paraproduct calculus n/2+ε
Let a ∈ H|τ |,σ , ε > 0, τ ∈ IR, σ > 1. We can define the paraproduct operator Ta as follows: X s (4.1) Ta u = (Sq a)uq , u ∈ Hτ,σ , q
P where {uq }∞ q=−1 denotes the dyadic decomposition of u, Sq a = −1≤p≤q−N1 ap , {ap } the dyadic decomposition of a. Let N1 be sufficiently large, cf. [4],[5], then we have s s Theorem 4.1. Ta : Hτ,σ → Hτ,σ is a continuous mapping for every s ∈ −∞ s s IR. Moreover, u ∈ Hτ,σ and u ∈ Hτ,σ (x0 ) imply Ta u ∈ Hτ,σ (x0 ) for any s ∈ IR n 0 s ,H s ) ≤ Cs kak n/2+ε . Fix further ξ and x0 ∈ IR . We have kTa kL(Hτ,σ 6= 0. If τ,σ H |τ |,σ
s t t u ∈ Hτ,σ (x0 ) with s > 0, then u ∈ Hτ,σ (x0 , ξ 0 ) implies Ta u ∈ Hτ,σ (x0 , ξ 0 ) for s < t < s + ε.
Proof. The same statement was already proved in [5, Theorem 3.1]. We think however it is worth to give in the following a precise argument for the −∞ s s pseudo-local property, i.e. u ∈ Hτ,σ and u ∈ Hτ,σ (x0 ) imply Ta u ∈ Hτ,σ (x0 ) for every s ∈ IR, since details in this connection are missing in [5]. Our present proof will be based on the pseudo-differential calculus of the preceding Section 3. 0 Let us assume for simplicity τ > 0. We may take φ ∈ Gσ0 (IRn ), 1 < σ 0 < σ, s with φ(x) = 1 in a neighborhood Vx0 of x0 , such that φu ∈ Hτ,σ . Let us then s σ0 show that φ1 Ta u ∈ Hτ,σ for every φ1 ∈ G0 (Vx0 ). In fact φ1 Ta u = φ1 Ta φu + φ1 Ta (1 − φ)u

s s where φ1 Ta φu ∈ Hτ,σ , granted the boundedness of Ta on Hτ,σ . h Let us prove that φ1 Ta (1 − φ)u ∈ Hτ,σ for all h ∈ IR. Basing on (4.1), we write X (4.2) φ1 Ta (1 − φ)u = φ1 (Sp a)ϕ(2−p D)(1 − φ)u + f, p≥0 +∞ where f ∈ Hτ,σ and ϕ is defined as in Lemma 2.2. Since φ1 ϕ(2−p ξ) and φ(x) 0 are symbols in Sτ,σ , we may apply Theorem 3.2 and write, with N to be fixed later: X φ1 ϕ(2−p D)(1−φ) = φ1 (α!)−1 Dxα (1−φ)2−p|α| (∂ξα ϕ)(2−p D)+φ1 rpN (x, D) |α| 0 and applying (d) in Theorem 2.1, we may limit ourselves to check that
(4.3)
kDα (Sp a)rpN (x, D)ukL2τ,σ ≤ cpα 2−ph+p|α| ,
{cpα }p ∈ l2 .
By Leibniz formula and Theorem 2.5, we are further reduced to prove the same estimates for the terms (4.4)

{c0pα1 }p ∈ l2 .
It will be then convenient to write the explicit expression of rpN α2 (x, ξ), the symbol of Dα2 rpN (x, D). Namely, according to the last part of the proof of Theorem 3.2: X NZ 1 (4.6) rpN α2 (x, ξ) = rpN α2 γ (x, ξ, t)(1 − t)N −1 dt, γ! 0 |γ|=N
where rpN α2 γ is a linear combination of terms of the form Z −n ˆ (4.7) e(x, ξ, t) = (2π) eixζ 2−pN (∂ξγ ϕ)(2−p (ξ + tζ))ξ β1 ζ γ+β2 φ(ζ)dζ. with β1 + β2 = α2 .

We want to estimate the norm of the corresponding operator as a map h0 from Hτ,σ to L2τ,σ . Going back to Lemma 3.1 and to the proof of Theorem 3.1, we have then to consider ˆ eˆ(λ, ξ, t) = 2−pN (∂ξγ ϕ)(2−p (ξ + tλ))ξ β1 λγ+β2 φ(λ) and evaluate the L2 -norm with respect to λ of g(λ, ξ, t) = eτ λ

Observe in Theorem 4.1 that u ∈ Hτ,σ , u ∈ Hτ,σ (x0 ) s imply Ta u ∈ Hτ,σ (x0 ) without any restriction on s ∈ IR, whereas the microlocal statement depends on the local regularity of u. In fact when τ = 0 the paraproduct Ta belongs to the H¨ormander’s class L01,1 , cf. [4], and it is well known that the corresponding pseudo-differential operators are pseudo-local but not micro-local in general.

From (4.1), the definition of Ta seems dependent on the dyadic decomposis tion of Gevrey-Sobolev space Hτ,σ (i.e. depending on the choice of {K, ϕ, N1 }). We suppose there exist two dyadic decompositions which depend on {K, ϕ, N1 } and {K 0 , ϕ0 , N10 } respectively, and denote by Ta and Ta0 as two paraproducts corresponding to {K, ϕ, N1 } and {K 0 , ϕ0 , N10 } respectively, then we have n/2+ε

Paradifferential operators in Gevrey classes In this section, m ∈ IR, σ > 1 as usual, but we shall assume τ > 0. Definition 5.1.
For ε > 0, let
m,ε lτ,σ ={l(x, ξ) | l is m order homogeneous C ∞ (IRn \ 0) function in ξ, n/2+ε and Hτ,σ function in x for ξ uniformly}. m,ε m,ε The functions l ∈ lτ,σ can be regarded as symbols in the classes Sτ,σ from Definition 3.1. Observe however that the corresponding pseudo-differential s operators l(x, D) are not Lm τ,σ class operators; in fact continuity from Hτ,σ s−m to Hτ,σ fails for large s, because of the limited Gevrey smoothness of l(x, ξ) with respect to x. Following Bony [4] and using the Gevrey paraproduct calculus of the preceding section, we shall then consider paradifferential operators associated to l(x, ξ), which will turn out to be of class Lm τ,σ . m,ε For l ∈ lτ,σ , we can define an operator Tl as X X s (Tl u)(x) = Sq (l(x, D))uq (x), u = uq ∈ Hτ,σ ,
