Abstract

We study the C*-closure of the algebra of all operators of order and class zero in Boutet de Monvel's calculus on a compact connected manifold X with boundary . We find short exact sequences in K-theory which split, so that K i( ) ≅ K i(C(X)) ⊕ K 1-i(C 0(T*X°)). Using only simple K-theoretic arguments and the Atiyah-Singer index theorem, we show that the Fredholm index of an elliptic element in is given by where [A] is the class of A in K 1( ) and ind t is the topological index, a relation first established by Boutet de Monvel by different methods.
