In this paper we study Clifford and harmonic analysis on some conformal flat spin manifolds. In particular we treat manifolds that can be parametrized by $U / \Gamma$ where $U$ is a simply connected subdomain of either $S^{n}$ or $R^{n}$…

In this paper, we introduce several new secondary invariants for Dirac operators on a complete Riemannian manifold with a uniform positive scalar curvature metric outside a compact set and use these secondary invariants to establish a…

We compute the index of the Dirac operator on spin Riemannian manifolds with conical singularities, acting from $L^p(\Sigma^+)$ to $L^q(\Sigma^-)$ with $p,q>1$. When $1+\frac{n}{p}-\frac{n}{q}>0$ we obtain the usual Atiyah-Patodi-Singer…

We prove that if the Cauchy problem $\dot{u}=Au$ in a Banach space is hyperbolic, then the problem has the L-shadowing property. Conversely, if the space is finite-dimensional and the L-shadowing property is satisfied, then the problem is…

In 1968, Israel Gohberg and Naum Krupnik discovered that local spectra of singular integral operators with piecewise continuous coefficients on Lebesgue spaces $L^p(\Gamma)$ over Lyapunov curves have the shape of circular arcs. About 25…

We review the concepts of the index of a Fredholm operator, the spectral flow of a curve of self-adjoint Fredholm operators, the Maslov index of a curve of Lagrangian subspaces in symplectic Hilbert space, and the eta invariant of operators…

We study Dirac operators acting on sections of a Clifford module ${\cal E}$\ over a Riemannian manifold $M$. We prove the intrinsic decomposition formula for their square, which is the generalisation of the well-known formula due to…

We propose a geometric approach to construct the Cauchy evolution operator for the Lorentzian Dirac operator on Cauchy-compact globally hyperbolic 4-manifolds. We realise the Cauchy evolution operator as the sum of two invariantly defined…

In \cite{BAMU}, an ergodic theorem \`a la Birkhoff-von Neumann for the action of the fundamental group of a compact negatively curved manifold on the boundary of its universal cover is proved. A quick corollary is the irreducibility of the…

We prove a local index theorem of Atiyah-Singer type for Dirac operators on manifolds with a Lie structure at infinity (Lie manifolds for short). With the help of a renormalized supertrace, defined on a suitable class of regularizing…

Let G be a real Lie group and H a lattice or, more generally, a closed subgroup of finite covolume in G. We show that the unitary representation lambda_{G/H} of G on L^2(G/H) has a spectral gap, that is, the restriction of lambda_{G/H} to…

Let G be a finitely connected Lie group and let K be a maximal compact subgroup. Let M be a cocompact G-proper manifold with boundary, endowed with a G-invariant metric which is of product type near the boundary. Under additional…

We compactify M(atrix) theory on Riemann surfaces Sigma with genus g>1. Following [1], we construct a projective unitary representation of pi_1(Sigma) realized on L^2(H), with H the upper half-plane. As a first step we introduce a suitably…

When the index bundle of a longitudinal Dirac type operator is transversely smooth, we define its Chern character in Haefliger cohomology and relate it to the Chern character of the $K-$theory index. This result gives a concrete connection…

Given a lattice Veech group in the mapping class group of a closed surface $S$, this paper investigates the geometry of $\Gamma$, the associated $\pi_1S$--extension group. We prove that $\Gamma$ is the fundamental group of a bundle with a…

We prove index formulas for elliptic operators acting between sections of C*-vector bundles on a closed manifold. The formulas involve Karoubi's Chern character from K-theory of a C*-algebra to de Rham homology of smooth subalgebras. We…
