Abstract

We show meromorphic extension and analyze the divisors of a Selberg zeta function of odd type ZΓ,Σo(λ)Z_{\Gamma,\Sigma}^{\rm o}(\lambda) associated to the spinor bundle Σ\Sigma on odd dimensional convex co-compact hyperbolic manifolds X:=Γ\\hh2n+1X:=\Gamma\backslash\hh^{2n+1}. We define a natural eta invariant η(D)\eta(D) associated to the Dirac operator DD on XX and prove that η(D)=1πilogZΓ,Σo(0)\eta(D)=\frac{1}{\pi i}\log Z_{\Gamma,\Sigma}^{\rm o}(0), thus extending Millson's formula to this setting. As a byproduct, we do a full analysis of the spectral and scattering theory of the Dirac operator on asymptotically hyperbolic manifolds. We also define an eta invariant for the odd signature operator and, under some conditions, we describe it on the Schottky space of 3-dimensional Schottky hyperbolic manifolds and relate it to Zograf factorization formula.
