Higher spectral flow

X Dai, W Zhang - journal of functional analysis, 1998 - Elsevier
For a continuous curve of families of Dirac type operators we define a higher spectral flow as
aK-group element. We show that this higher spectral flow can be computed analytically byη …

[HTML][HTML] Dirac index classes and the noncommutative spectral flow

E Leichtnam, P Piazza - Journal of Functional Analysis, 2003 - Elsevier
We present a detailed proof of the existence-theorem for noncommutative spectral sections
(see the noncommutative spectral flow, unpublished preprint, 1997). We apply this result to …

Geometric quantization for proper moment maps

X Ma, W Zhang - Comptes Rendus Mathematique, 2009 - Elsevier
We establish a geometric quantization formula for Hamiltonian actions of a compact Lie
group acting on a non-compact symplectic manifold such that the associated moment map is …

[PDF][PDF] On higher eta-invariants and metrics of positive scalar curvature

E Leichtnam, P Piazza - K-Theory, 2001 - mat.uniroma1.it
Let N be a closed connected spin manifold admitting one metric of positive scalar curvature.
In this paper we use the higher eta-invariant associated to the Dirac operator on N in order …

self-adjoint Fredholm operators, the Maslov index of a curve of Lagrangian subspaces in a …

On the noncommutative spectral flow

C Wahl - arXiv preprint math/0602110, 2006 - arxiv.org
We define and study the noncommutative spectral flow for paths of regular selfadjoint
Fredholm operators on a countably generated Hilbert C*-module. We give an axiomatic …

Let X be a closed Riemannian manifold and let H\hookrightarrow X be an embedded
hypersurface. Let X= X_+\cup_H X_-be a decomposition of X into two manifolds with …

Zeta determinants on manifolds with boundary

S Scott - Journal of Functional Analysis, 2002 - Elsevier
Through a general theory for relative spectral invariants, we study the ζ-determinant of
global boundary problems of APS-type. In particular, we compute the ζ-determinant ratio for …
