This article focuses on Lp-estimates for the square root of elliptic systems of second order in divergence form on a bounded domain. We treat complex bounded measurable coefficients and allow for mixed Dirichlet/Neumann boundary conditions…
The aim of this work is to give an algebraic weak version of the Atiyah-Singer index theorem. We compute then a few small examples with the elliptic differential operator of order $\leq 1$ coming from the Atiyah class in…
In this paper we prove a Lie-Trotter product formula for Markov semigroups in spaces of measures. We relate our results to "classical" results for strongly continuous linear semigroups on Banach spaces or Lipschitz semigroups in metric…
In 1956, Bott in his celebrated paper on closed geodesics and Sturm intersection theory, proved an Index Iteration Formula for closed geodesics on Riemannian manifolds. Some years later, Ekeland improved this formula in the case of convex…
We show that the index of an elliptic Fourier integral operator associated to a contact diffeomorphism $\phi$ of cosphere bundles of two Riemannian manifolds X and Y is given by $\int_{B^*X}\hat{A}(T^*X)\exp{\theta} -…
We extend the Atiyah, Patodi, and Singer index theorem for first order differential operators from the context of manifolds with cylindrical ends to manifolds with periodic ends. This theorem provides a natural complement to Taubes'…
The subject of this paper is strongly homotopy (SH) Lie algebras, also known as $L_\infty$-algebras. We extract an intrinsic character, the Atiyah class, which measures the nontriviality of an (SH) Lie algebra $A$ when it is extended to…
We prove boundary H\"older and Lipschitz regularity for a class of degenerate elliptic, second order, inhomogeneous equations in non-divergence form structured on the left-invariant vector fields of the Heisenberg group. Our focus is on the…
Fujikawa's method is employed to compute at first order in the noncommutative parameter the $U(1)_A$ anomaly for noncommutative SU(N). We consider the most general Seiberg-Witten map which commutes with hermiticity and complex conjugation…
We develop elliptic theory of operators associated with a diffeomorphism of a closed smooth manifold. The aim of the present paper is to obtain an index formula for such operators in terms of topological invariants of the manifold and of…
We study the Witten--Reshetikhin--Turaev SU(2) invariant for the Seifert manifold with 4-singular fibers. We define the Eichler integrals of the modular forms with half-integral weight, and we show that the invariant is rewritten as a sum…
We present a product formula to approximate the exponential of a skew-Hermitian operator that is a sum of generators of a Lie algebra. The number of terms in the product depends on the structure factors. When the generators have large norm…
We begin with a short presentation of the basic concepts related to Lie groupoids and Lie algebroids, but the main part of this paper deals with Lie algebroids. A Lie algebroid over a manifold is a vector bundle over that manifold whose…
We develop an analytic framework for Lefschetz fixed point theory and Morse theory for Hilbert complexes on stratified pseudomanifolds. We develop formulas for both global and local Lefschetz numbers and Morse, Poincar\'e polynomials as…
We study K-theory classes of Hamiltonian loop group spaces represented by admissible Fredholm complexes. We prove various equivariant index formulae in this context. In a sequel to this article we show that, when specialized to a family of…
In an earlier article we introduced a new definition for the `quantization' of a Hamiltonian loop group space $\mathcal{M}$, involving the equivariant $L^2$-index of a Dirac-type operator $\mathscr{D}$ on a non-compact finite dimensional…
We prove that adjoint orbits of semisimple Lie algebras have the structure of symplectic Lefschetz fibrations. We then describe the topology of the regular and singular fibres, in particular calculating their middle Betti numbers. For the…

We study a natural family of non-local elliptic boundary problems on a compact oriented surface $\Sigma$ parametrized by the moduli space $\mathcal{M}_\Sigma$ of flat $G$-connections with framing along $\partial \Sigma$. This family…
Let $(X_0,\mathcal{F}_0) $ be a compact manifold with boundary endowed with a foliation $\mathcal{F}_0$ which is assumed to be measured and transverse to the boundary. We denote by $\Lambda$ a holonomy invariant transverse measure on…
