Tarakoff) Abrac. Auming a ubellipic a-priori eimae we prove global analyic regulariy for non-linear econd order operaor on a produc of ori, uing he mehod of majoran erie. 1. Inroducion Hypoellipiciy for linear parial differenial operaor ha been largely inveigaed by many auhor. In he non-linear cae, on he conrary, here are ill few reul and many open queion. Some reul abou C -hypoellipiciy for non-linear parial differenial equaion have been obained in [X] and [G], uing he para-differenial calculu of Bony [B]. We are inereed in analyic hypoellipiciy for non-linear econd order p.d.e.. Local analyic regulariy for a model operaor given by um of quare of non-linear vecor field ha been proved in [TZ]. Here we prove global analyic regulariy on he oru for non-linear econd order operaor conruced from rigid vecor field, generalizing he reul obained for he linear cae in [T]. The problem of regulariy of oluion on he oru in he linear cae ha been udied by many oher auhor in he framework of C, Gevrey and analyic funcion (ee, for inance, [GPY] and he reference here). 2. Noaion and main reul Le T N be he N-dimenional oru and pli T N T m T n. Le u hen conider, for u C (T N ) and for ome ineger n, he operaor (1) P = P u = P (x, u, D) = j,k=1 a jk (u(, x))x j X k + b j (u(, x))x j + X 0 + c(u(, x)) Received by he edior July 4, Mahemaic Subjec Claificaion.

Aume alo ha, for every x T n, he field n (3) X j = d jk (x), j =1,...,, x k k=1 pan he angen pace T x (T n ). Le u now denoe by A(T N ) he pace of real analyic funcion on T N, and fix aoluionu C (T N ) of he equaion Pu = f for f A(T N ). We hall aume in he equel ha he following a-priori eimae i aified for ome δ, C > 0andforallv C (T N ): (4) i, X i X j v µ + X j v µ + v µ+δ C( P u v µ + v µ ), where µ i a fixed ineger wih µ>n/2, o ha he Sobolev pace H µ (T N )ian algebra and fg µ Λ f µ g µ f,g H µ (T N ), for a poiive Λ depending only on N. Before giving he analyic regulariy reul, we fir give an example of an operaor of ype (1) aifying he required aumpion, and in paricular he a-priori eimae (4). Example 2.1. Le (, x) T 2 and conider he operaor P = 2 x +in 2 x (1 + a 2 (u(, x))) 2, where a(u) i a real analyic funcion. Thi operaor i of he form (1) wih X 1 = X 1 = x,x 2 =inx, a 11 (u) 1, a 12 (u) a 21 (u) 0, a 22 (u) =1+a 2 (u). We mu prove he a-priori eimae (4).
