On the sharp Gevrey regularity for a generalization of the M\'etivier operator

Abstract

The sharp Gevrey hypoellipticity is provided for the following generalization of the M\'etivier operator, "Non-hypoellipticit\'e analytique pour $D_{x}^{2}+\left( x^{2} + y^{2}\right)D_{y}^{2}$" by G. M\'etivier, \begin{align*} D_{x}^{2}+\left(x^{2n+1}D_{y}\right)^{2}+\left(x^{n}y^{m}D_{y}\right)^{2}, \end{align*} in $\Omega$ open neighborhood of the origin in $\mathbb{R}^{2}$, where $n$ and $m$ are positive integers.
