Abstract

We prove the Kato conjecture for elliptic operators, $L=-\nabla\cdot\left((\mathbf A+\mathbf D)\nabla\ \right)$, with $\mathbf A$ a complex measurable bounded coercive matrix and $\mathbf D$ a measurable real-valued skew-symmetric matrix in $\mathbb{R}^n$ with entries in $BMO(\mathbb{R}^n)$;\, i.e., the domain of $\sqrt{L}\,$ is the Sobolev space $\dot H^1(\mathbb{R}^n)$ in any dimension, with the estimate $\|\sqrt{L}\, f\|_2\lesssim \| \nabla f\|_2$.
