Global functional calculus for operators on compact Lie groups

In this paper we develop the functional calculus for elliptic operators on compact Lie groups without the assumption that the operator is a classical pseudo-differential operator. Consequently, we provide a symbolic descriptions of complex powers of such operators. As an application, we give a constructive symbolic proof of the Carding inequality for operators in (rho, delta)-classes in the setting of compact Lie groups. (C) 2014 Elsevier Inc.
