Failure of analytic hypoellipticity in a class of differential operators
Annali della Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa - Classe di Scienze, Série 5, Tome 2 (2003) no. 1, pp. 21-45.

For the hypoelliptic differential operators P= x 2 +x k y -x l t 2 introduced by T. Hoshiro, generalizing a class of M. Christ, in the cases of k and l left open in the analysis, the operators P also fail to be analytic hypoelliptic (except for (k,l)=(0,1)), in accordance with Treves’ conjecture. The proof is constructive, suitable for generalization, and relies on evaluating a family of eigenvalues of a non-self-adjoint operator.
