We consider a spectral problem over $\mathbb{R}^n$ for a Douglis-Nirenberg system of differential operators under limited smoothness assumptions and under the assumption of parameter-ellipticity in a closed sector $\mathcal{L}$ in the complex plane with vertex at the origin. We pose the problem in an $L_p$ Sobolev-Bessel potential space setting, $1 < p < \infty$, and denote by $A_p$ the operator induced in this setting by the spectral problem. We then derive results pertaining to the Fredholm theory for $A_p$ for values of the spectral parameter $\lambda$ lying in $\mathcal{L}$ as well as results pertaining to the invariance of the Fredholm domain of $A_p$ with $p$.References
