We give a definition of the fractional Laplacian on some noncompact manifolds, through an extension problem introduced by Caffarelli-Silvestre. While this definition in the compact case is straightforward, in the noncompact setting one…

We consider the heat kernel (and the zeta function) associated with Laplace type operators acting on a general irreducible rank 1 locally symmetric space X. The set of Minakshisundaram- Pleijel coefficients {A_k(X)}_{k=0}^{\infty} in the…
