We study the relationship between the geometry and the Laplace spectrum of a Riemannian orbifold O via its heat kernel; as in the manifold case, the time-zero asymptotic expansion of the heat kernel furnishes geometric information about O.…

For a compact CR manifold $(X,T^{1,0}X)$ of dimension $2n+1$, $n\geq 2$, admitting a $S^1\times T^d$ action, if the lattice point $(-p_1,\cdots,-p_d)\in\mathbb{Z}^{d}$ is a regular value of the associate CR moment map $\mu$, then we…
