We consider the semi-classical (or Gutzwiller-Voros) zeta function for $C^\infty$ contact Anosov flows. Analyzing the spectrum of transfer operators associated to the flow, we prove, for any $\tau>0$, that its zeros are contained in the…
We present a numerical algorithm for the computation of invariant Ruelle distributions on convex co-compact hyperbolic surfaces. This is achieved by exploiting the connection between invariant Ruelle distributions and residues of…
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…
We revisit traces of holomorphic families of pseudodifferential operators on a closed manifold in view of geometric applications. We then transpose the corresponding analytic constructions to two different geometric frameworks; the…
In a previous work, we proved an index theorem for families of asymptotically hyperbolic discrete dynamical systems and obtained applications to bifurcation theory. A weaker and far more common assumption than asymptotic hyperbolicity is…
We give a new upper bound on the Selberg zeta function for a convex co-compact Schottky group acting on $ {\mathbb H}^{n+1}$: in strips parallel to the imaginary axis the zeta function is bounded by $ \exp (C |s|^\delta) $ where $ \delta $…
The connection between Lefschetz formulae and zeta function is explained. As a particular example the theory of the generalized Selberg zeta function is presented. Applications are given to the theory of Anosov flows and prime geodesic…
We revisit an argument due to Lesch (Topology 32 (1993), no. 3, 611-623) for proving the cobordism invariance of the index of Dirac operators on even-dimensional closed manifolds and combine this with recent work by the author (New York J.…
We consider diffusion operator $-\Delta + b \cdot \nabla$ in $\mathbb R^d$, $d \geq 3$, with drift $b$ in a large class of locally unbounded vector fields that can have critical-order singularities. Covering the entire range of admissible…
Hellerman et al. (arXiv:1505.01537) have shown that in a generic CFT the spectrum of operators carrying a large U(1) charge can be analyzed semiclassically in an expansion in inverse powers of the charge. The key is the operator state…
We study ergodic theoretical properties of flows on circle bundles over translation surfaces that arise via prequantization, generalizing the theory of Heisenberg nilflows to base surfaces more general than tori; these flows are among the…
In this paper we study operators originated from semi-B-Fredholm theory and as a consequence we get some results regarding boundaries and connected hulls of the corresponding spectra. In particular, we prove that a bounded linear operator…
We prove topological transitivity for the Weil Petersson geodesic flow for two-dimensional moduli spaces of hyperbolic structures. Our proof follows a new approach that exploits the density of singular unit tangent vectors, the geometry of…
Given a Furstenberg family $\mathscr{F}$ of subsets of $\mathbb{N}$, an operator $T$ on a topological vector space $X$ is called $\mathscr{F}$-transitive provided for each non-empty open subsets $U$, $V$ of $X$ the set $\{n\in \mathbb{Z}_+…
For hyperbolic Riemann surfaces of finite geometry, we study Selberg's zeta function and its relation to the relative scattering phase and the resonances of the Laplacian. As an application we show that the conjugacy class of a finitely…
We show the existence of invariant ergodic $\sigma$-additive probability measures with full support on $X$ for a class of linear operators $L: X \to X$, where $L$ is a weighted shift operator and $X$ either is the Banach space…
Let $\sigma$ denote an endomorphism of a smooth algebraic group $G$ over the algebraic closure of a finite field, and assume all iterates of $\sigma$ have finitely many fixed points. Steinberg gave a formula for the number of fixed points…
On the unit ball B^n we consider the weighted Bergman spaces H_\lambda and their Toeplitz operators with bounded symbols. It is known from our previous work that if a closed subgroup H of \widetilde{\SU(n,1)} has a multiplicity-free…
In this brief note we present a very simple strategy to investigate dynamical determinants for uniformly hyperbolic systems. The construction builds on the recent introduction of suitable functional spaces which allow to transform simple…
We construct a Hilbert scale on $L^2([0,1])$ via a unitary twist operator that maps the standard Fourier basis to half-integer frequency exponentials. The resulting weighted spaces, equipped with norms indexed by $(1+|k+\tfrac{1}{2}|^2)^s$,…
