Witten Deformation and Its Application toward Morse Inequalities

Differential Geometry 2017-10-27 v1

Abstract

In this undergraduate thesis, we present an analytical proof of the Morse inequalities for closed smooth nn-manifolds following Witten's approach. Using techniques from PDE theory, the proof is reduced to study the eigenspaces and eigenvalues of harmonic oscillators on Rn\mathbb{R}^n.
