We study closed extensions $\underset{\scriptscriptstyle-}{A}$ of an elliptic differential operator $A$ on a manifold with conical singularities, acting as an unbounded operator on a weighted ${{L}_{p}}$-space. Under suitable conditions we show that the resolvent ${{\left( \lambda -\underset{\scriptscriptstyle-}{A} \right)}^{-1}}$ exists in a sector of the complex plane and decays like $1/\left| \lambda \right|$ as $\left| \lambda \right|\to \infty $. Moreover, we determine the structure of the resolvent with enough precision to guarantee existence and boundedness of imaginary powers of $\underset{\scriptscriptstyle-}{A}$.

As an application we treat the Laplace–Beltrami operator for a metric with straight conical degeneracy and describe domains yielding maximal regularity for the Cauchy problem $\dot{u}\,-\,\Delta u\,=\,f,$$u\left( 0 \right)\,=\,0$.
