We prove that the Fourier coefficients of a certain general eta product considered by K. Saito are nonnegative. The proof is elementary and depends on a multidimensional theta function identity. The z = 1 case is an identity for the…
Several proofs have been published of the Mod Z gluing formula for the eta-invariant of a Dirac operator. However, so far the integer contribution to the gluing formula for the eta-invariant is left obscure in the literature. In this…
This paper expresses the Chern character for topological K-theory based on the formulation of the family of Fredholm operators, by using the points at which the Fredholm operator becomes singular (Fermi points). In particular, we explain…
The goal of this paper is to apply the universal gerbe of \cite{CMi1} and \cite{CMi2} to give an alternative, simple and more unified view of the relationship between index theory and gerbes. We discuss determinant bundle gerbes…
Let p=tp(a/A) be a stationary type in an arbitrary finite rank stable theory, and P an A-invariant family of partial types. The following property is introduced and characterised: whenever c is definable over (A,a) and a is not algebraic…
The electromagnetic transition form factors of $\eta$ and $\eta'$ are calculated in the light-cone perturbation theory. We show that it is unreliable to determine the \eta-\etap'$ mixing angle without any additional normalization conditions…
We study super-Chern-Simons theory on a generic supermanifold. After a self-contained review of integration on supermanifolds, the complexes of forms (superforms, pseudo-forms and integral forms) and the extended Cartan calculus are…
Consider a classical elliptic pseudodifferential operator $P$ on ${\Bbb R}^n$ of order $2a$ ($0<a<1)$ with even symbol. For example, $P=A(x,D)^a$ where $A(x,D)$ is a second-order strongly elliptic differential operator; the fractional…
For an acyclic representation of the fundamental group of a compact oriented odd-dimensional manifold, which is close enough to a unitary representation, we define a refinement of the Ray-Singer torsion associated to this representation.…
In this paper we define a congruence $\eta^{\ast}$ on semigroups. For the finite semigroups $S$, $\eta^{\ast}$ is the smallest congruence relation such that $S/\eta^{\ast}$ is a nilpotent semigroup (in the sense of Malcev). In order to…
We present a conservative extension ICaTT of the dependent type theory CaTT for weak $\omega$-categories with a type witnessing coinductive invertibility of cells. This extension allows for a concise description of the "walking equivalence"…
We present a detailed evaluation of $\eta$, the critical exponent corresponding to the electron anomalous dimension, at $O(1/N^2_{\!f})$ in a large flavour expansion of QED in arbitrary dimensions in the Landau gauge. The method involves…
Let X be a compact manifold with boundary, and suppose that the boundary is the total space of a fibration with base Y and fibre Z. Let D be a generalized Dirac operator associated to a Phi-metric g on X. Under the assumption that D is…
To a smooth and proper morphism $\mathcal{X}\to U$ with quasicompact semiseparated target we associate a sheaf in the \'etale topology, which takes an affine $U$-scheme $V$ to the set of $V$-linear semiorthogonal decompositions (of fixed…
Given a definable function $f: S \to \mathbb{R}$ on a definable set $S$, we study sublevel sets of the form $S^f_t \coloneqq \{x \in S: f(x) \leq t\}$ for all $t \in \mathbb{R}$. Using o-minimal structures, we prove that the Euler…
One of the most significant discrete invariants of a quadratic form $\phi$ over a field $k$ is its (full) splitting pattern, a finite sequence of integers which describes the possible isotropy behaviour of $\phi$ under scalar extension to…
Let $D\equiv 1\bmod{4}$ be a fundamental discriminant of a real quadratic field. We construct an analogue of the classical Dedekind eta function for the Hecke group $H(\sqrt{D})$. This gives rise to a new family of holomorphic modular…
In this paper we establish a formula, expressing the generalized Atiyah-Patodi-Singer index in terms of eta invariants of domain-wall massive Dirac operators, without assuming that the Dirac operator on the boundary is invertible. Compared…
We prove a Godbillon-Vey index formula for longitudinal Dirac operators on a foliated bundle with boundary; in particular, we define a Godbillon-Vey eta invariant on the boundary-foliation; this is a secondary invariant for longitudinal…
We generalize Roe's index theorem for graded generalized Dirac operators on amenable manifolds to multigraded elliptic uniform pseudodifferential operators. This generalization will follow as a corollary from a local index theorem that is…
