We establish a semiclassical trace formula in a general framework of microhyperbolic hermitian systems of $h$-pseudodifferential operators, and apply it to the study of the spectral shift function associated to a pair of selfadjoint…
In this paper we develop the spectral theory of the fractional Brownian motion (fBm) using the ideas of Krein's work on continuous analogous of orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle. We exhibit the functions which are orthogonal with…
This paper is devoted to the definition and analysis of the spectral shift function (SSF) associated with non-self-adjoint perturbations of self-adjoint operators. Motivated by applications in scattering theory, we consider both trace-class…
This paper describes a topological method to compute the spectral flow of a family of twisted Dirac operators, it includes two detailed examples. Briefly, a formula of Atiyah, Patodi and Singer expresses the spectral flow in terms of…
We discuss applications of the M. G. Kre\u{\i}n theory of the spectral shift function to the multi-dimensional Schr\"odinger operator as well as specific properties of this function, for example, its high-energy asymptotics. Trace…
A general integral formula for the spectral flow of a path of unbounded selfadjoint Fredholm operators subject to certain summability conditions is derived from the interpretation of the spectral flow as a winding number.
We present first results on the calculation of fermionic spectral functions from analytically continued flow equations within the Functional Renormalization Group approach. Our method is based on the same analytic continuation from…
We use spectral flow to present a new proof of Levinson's theorem for Schr\"{o}dinger operators on $\mathbb{R}^n$ with smooth compactly supported potential. Our proof is valid in all dimensions and in the presence of resonances. The…
Callias-type (or Dirac-Schr\"odinger) operators associated to abstract semifinite spectral triples are introduced and their indices are computed in terms of an associated index pairing derived from the spectral triple. The result is then…
One may trace the idea that spectral flow should be given as the integral of a one form back to the 1974 Vancouver ICM address of I.M. Singer. Our main theorem gives analytic formulae for the spectral flow along a norm differentiable path…
We employ the functional renormalization group approach formulated on the Schwinger-Keldysh contour to calculate real-time correlation functions in scalar field theories. We provide a detailed description of the formalism, discuss suitable…
We explain an array of basic functional analysis puzzles on the way to general spectral flow formulae and indicate a direction of future topological research for dealing with these puzzles.
The analytic approach to spectral flow is about ten years old. In that time it has evolved to cover an ever wider range of examples. The most critical extension was to replace Fredholm operators in the classical sense by Breuer-Fredholm…
It is shown that transfer functions, which play a crucial role in M.G. Krein's study of inverse spectral problems, are a proper tool to formulate local spectral uniqueness conditions.
We derive renormalised finite functional flow equations for quantum field theories in real and imaginary time that incorporate scale transformations of the renormalisation conditions, hence implementing a flowing renormalisation. The flows…
In this paper it is shown that in case of trace class perturbations the singular part of Pushnitski $\mu$-invariant does not depend on the angle variable. This gives an alternative proof of integer-valuedness of the singular part of the…
In this note, under a certain assumption on an affine space of operators, which admit embedded eigenvalues, it is shown that the singular part of the spectral shift function of any pair of operators from this space is an integer-valued…
We introduce the notion of the joint spectral flow, which is a generalization of the spectral flow, by using Segal's model of the connective $K$-theory spectrum. We apply it for some localization results of indices motivated by Witten's…
We consider R and NS spectral flow sectors of type IIB superstring theory on AdS(3)xS(3)xT(4) in the context of the AdS(3)/CFT(2) correspondence. We present a derivation of the vertex operators creating spectral flow images of chiral…
We generalise the local index formula of Connes and Moscovici to the case of spectral triples for a *-subalgebra \A of a general semifinite von Neumann algebra. In this setting it gives a formula for spectral flow along a path joining an…
