Given a compact manifold with boundary endowed with an isometric action of a discrete group of polynomial growth, we state an index theorem for elliptic elements in the algebra of nonlocal operators generated by the Boutet de Monvel algebra…
A Lie algebroid is a generalization of Lie algebra that provides a general framework to describe the symmetries of a manifold. In this paper, we introduce Lie algebroid index theory and study the Lie algebroid Dolbeault operator. We also…
We carry the index theory for manifolds with boundary of B\"ar and Ballmann over to first order differential operators on metric graphs. This approach results in a short proof for the index of such operators. Then the self-adjoint…
We study Fredholm properties and index formulas for Dirac operators over complete Riemannian manifolds with straight ends. An important class of examples of such manifolds are complete Riemannian manifolds with pinched negative sectional…
In this article, written primarily for physicists and geometers, we survey several manifestations of a general localization principle for orbifold theories such as $K$-theory, index theory, motivic integration and elliptic genera.
We study perturbed Dirac operators of the form $ D_s= D + s\A :\Gamma(E^0)\rightarrow \Gamma(E^1)$ over a compact Riemannian manifold $(X, g)$ with symbol $c$ and special bundle maps $\A : E^0\rightarrow E^1$ for $s>>0$. Under a simple…
We introduce the concept of chiral geometric operators and use Gilkey's invariance theory to prove the local index theorem for these operators. In other words, we demonstrate that the supertrace of the heat kernel of a given geometric…
An index theory for projective families of elliptic pseudodifferential operators is developed. The topological and the analytic index of such a family both take values in twisted K-theory of the parametrizing space, X. The main result is…
For a proper, cocompact action by a locally compact group of the form $H \times G$, with $H$ compact, we define an $H \times G$-equivariant index of $H$-transversally elliptic operators, which takes values in $KK_*(C^*H, C^*G)$. This…
In this paper, we extend Roe's cyclic $1$-cocycle to relative settings. We also prove two relative index theorems for partitioned manifolds by using its cyclic cocycle, which are generalizations of index theorems on partitioned manifolds.…
Let $A$ be a graded C*-algebra. We characterize Kasparov's K-theory group $\hat{K}_0(A)$ in terms of graded *-homomorphisms by proving a general converse to the functional calculus theorem for self-adjoint regular operators on graded…
We study the relation between spectral flow and index theory within the framework of (unbounded) KK-theory. In particular, we consider a generalised notion of 'Dirac-Schr\"odinger operators', consisting of a self-adjoint elliptic…
An analytic index is defined for a family of cusp pseudodifferential operators, $P_b,$ on a fibration with fibres which are compact manifolds with boundaries, provided the family is elliptic and has invertible indicial family at the…
The aim of the lectures is to introduce first-year Ph.D. students and research workers to the theory of the Dirac operator, spinor techniques, and their relevance for the theory of eigenvalues in Riemannian geometry. Topics: differential…
The aim of the present paper is to introduce the notion of first order (supersymmetric) Dirac operators on discrete and metric (``quantum'') graphs. In order to cover all self-adjoint boundary conditions for the associated metric graph…
Egorov's theorem for transversally elliptic operators, acting on sections of a vector bundle over a compact foliated manifold, is proved. This theorem relates the quantum evolution of transverse pseudodifferential operators determined by a…
This article is one of a series of papers. For this decade, the Dirac operator on a submanifold has been studied as a restriction of the Dirac operator in $n$-dimensional euclidean space $\EE^n$ to a surface or a space curve as physical…
Let M be a foliated manifold and G a discrete group acting on M by diffeomorphisms mapping leaves to leaves. Then G naturally acts by automorphisms on the algebra of Heisenberg pseudodifferential operators on the foliation. Our main result…
We study an index of a transversal Dirac operator on an odd-dimensional manifold $X$ with locally free $\mathbb{S}^1$-action. One difficulty of using heat kernel method lies in the understanding of the asymptotic expansion as $t\to 0^+$. By…
The notion of pseudo-differential operators with coefficients in a continuous trace algebra over a manifold are introduced and their index theory is studied. The algebra of principal symbols in this calculus provides an abstract Poincar\'e…
