Curvature, Dolbeault-Dirac operators, and an $\mathrm{L}^p$ index theorem on compact K\"ahler manifolds
Abstract
We establish an -index theorem for Dolbeault--Dirac operators on compact K\"ahler manifolds with coefficients in a Hermitian holomorphic vector bundle . For every , we prove that the closed -realization of the Dolbeault-Dirac operator is bisectorial and admits a bounded functional calculus on . We also show an -Gaffney-type estimate, obtain -Hodge decompositions, and prove that gives rise to an even compact Banach spectral triple over the algebra , graded by form parity. The index of the associated Fredholm operator is equal to the holomorphic Euler characteristic . In particular, it is independent of . A central tool is an abstract notion of Ricci curvature lower bound for strongly continuous semigroups on reflexive Banach spaces, formulated as a semigroup-level intertwining relation. Under this condition, together with natural Riesz equivalences and bounded functional calculi for the relevant generators, the associated Hodge--Dirac operator is bisectorial and admits a bounded functional calculus. The framework also applies to heat semigroups on Riemannian manifolds, -Ornstein-Uhlenbeck semigroups and semigroups of Schur multipliers. This provides a unified Banach-space approach to curvature, functional calculus and index theory beyond the Hilbert space setting.
