We study the eta invariants of Dirac operators and the regularized determinants of Dirac Laplacians over hyperbolic manifolds with cusps. We follow Werner M"uller and use relative traces to define these spectral invariants. We show the…
We prove an asymptotic bound on the eta invariant of a family of coupled Dirac operators on an odd dimensional manifold. In the case when the manifold is the unit circle bundle of a positive line bundle over a complex manifold, we obtain…
We study how the spin structures on finite-volume hyperbolic n-manifolds restrict to cusps. When a cusp cross-section is a (n-1)-torus, there are essentially two possible behaviours: the spin structure is either bounding or Lie. We show…
Given a closed connected spin manifold M with non-negative and somewhere positive scalar curvature, we show that the Dirac operator twisted with any flat Hilbert module bundle is invertible.
We show meromorphic extension and analyze the divisors of a Selberg zeta function of odd type $Z_{\Gamma,\Sigma}^{\rm o}(\lambda)$ associated to the spinor bundle $\Sigma$ on odd dimensional convex co-compact hyperbolic manifolds…
We consider the spin-c Dirac operator on the unit circle bundle of a positive line bundle over a Fano manifold of even complex dimension. We compute the corresponding eta invariant in terms of Zhang's value of its adiabatic limit. This…
We consider a complete Riemannian manifold, which consists of a compact interior and one or more $\varphi$-cusps: infinitely long ends of a type that includes cylindrical ends and hyperbolic cusps. Here $\varphi$ is a function of the radial…
The eta invariant appears regularly in index theorems but is known to be directly computable from the spectrum only in certain examples of locally symmetric spaces of compact type. In this work, we derive some general formulas useful for…
Starting from an even definite lattice, we construct a principal circle bundle covered by a certain three-step nilpotent Lie group G. On the base space, which is again a nilmanifold, we then study the Dirac operator twisted by the…
We study the spectrum of the Dirac operator on hyperbolic manifolds of finite volume. Depending on the spin structure it is either discrete or the whole real line. For link complements in S^3 we give a simple criterion in terms of linking…
We consider Dirac operators on odd-dimensional compact spin manifolds which are twisted by a product bundle. We show that the space of connections on the twisting bundle which yield an invertible operator has infinitely many connected…
In this paper we prove that Dirac operators on non-compact complete orbifolds which are sufficiently regular at infinity, admit a unique extension. Additonally, we prove a generalized orbifold Stokes'/Divergence theorem.
Let P be a selfadjoint elliptic operator of order m>0 acting on the sections of a Hermitian vector bundle over a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension n. General arguments show that its zeta and eta functions may have poles only at…
Let $M$ be an orientable compact flat Riemannian manifold endowed with a spin structure. In this paper we determine the spectrum of Dirac operators acting on smooth sections of twisted spinor bundles of $M$, and we derive a formula for the…
On complete non-compact manifolds with bounded sectional curvature, we consider a class of self-adjoint Dirac-type operators called Dirac-Schr\"odinger operators. Assuming two Dirac-Schr\"odinger operators coincide at infinity, by previous…
For spin manifolds with boundary we consider Riemannian metrics which are product near the boundary and are such that the corresponding Dirac operator is invertible when half-infinite cylinders are attached at the boundary. The main result…
On a compact spin manifold we study the space of Riemannian metrics for which the Dirac operator is invertible. The first main result is a surgery theorem stating that such a metric can be extended over the trace of a surgery of codimension…
We consider Dirac-like operators with piecewise constant mass terms on spin manifolds, and we study the behaviour of their spectra when the mass parameters become large. In several asymptotic regimes, effective operators appear: the…
We study the eta invariants of compact flat spin manifolds of dimension n with holonomy group cyclic of odd prime order p. We find explicit expressions for the twisted and relative eta invariants and show that the reduced eta invariant is…
In this paper, we consider the dynamical zeta functions of Ruelle and Selberg associated with the geodesic flow of a compact hyperbolic odd dimensional manifold $X$. These functions are initially defined on one complex variable $s$ in some…
