Title: $L^2$-boundedness and $L^2$-compactness of a class of Fourier integral operators Authors: Bekkai Messirdi (Univ. d'Oran Es-Senia, Algeria) Abderrahmane Senoussaoui (Univ. d'Oran Es-Senia, Algeria) Abstract: In this paper, we study the $L^2$-boundedness and $L^2$-compactness of a class of Fourier integral operators. These operators are bounded (respectively compact) if the weight of the amplitude is bounded (respectively tends to 0). Submitted June 10, 2005. Published March 9, 2006.
