     The study of second order elliptic operators over some of these infinite dimensional manifolds has been the subject of much work in the past forty years, some of it for the purposes of quantum field theory and some of it for the purposes of stochastic analysis or infinite dimensional differential topology.

     Just as in the usual elliptic theory, in the theory of nonlocal elliptic operators we need not restrict ourselves to individual operators but can also consider families of nonlocal elliptic operators.

   • 2014, Lester L. Helms, Potential Theory, Springer, 2nd Edition, page 412,

     The Dirichlet problem for an elliptic operator was solved in Chap. 10 by morphing a solution of the Dirichlet problem for the Laplacian on a ball into a solution of the Dirichlet problem for an elliptic operator on a ball.
