Abstract
Since integral and pseudodifferential operators are one of the main themes of Maz’ya’s vast mathematical work, it is a difficult task to describe his diverse results in this field in a short survey. In fact, this article was to have been written by Maz’ya’s close friend Siegfried Prössdorf, who was my teacher at the Technical University of Chemnitz and my colleague at the Weierstrass Institute in Berlin. Siegfried’s unexpected and untimely death was a tragic loss for everybody who knew him. Siegfried had followed Maz’ya’s work for over thirty years. In this respect I would like to draw attention to their comprehensive joint monograph published as Volume 27 of the Encyclopaedia of Mathematical Sciences.
