On the trace of the wave group and regularity of potentials
Annales de l'Institut Fourier, Volume 73 (2023) no. 4, pp. 1453-1488

We consider the wave equation with a compactly supported, real-valued bounded potential, and show that the relative trace of the associated evolution group admits an asymptotic expansion to order m+2 if and only if the potential belongs to the Sobolev space of order m.

Nous considérons l’équation des ondes avec un potentiel borné, à support compact et à valeurs réelles, et montrons que la trace régularisée de l’opérateur d’évolution associé admet un développement asymptotique à l’ordre m+2 si et seulement si le potentiel appartient à l’espace de Sobolev d’ordre m.
