The heat kernel for the spin-3/2 Rarita-Schwinger gauge field on an arbitrary Ricci flat space-time ($d>2$) is investigated in a family of covariant gauges with one gauge parameter $\alpha$. The $\alpha$-dependent term of the kernel is…

The aim of this article is to establish two-sided Gaussian bounds for the heat kernels on the unit ball and simplex in $\mathbb{R}^n$, and in particular on the interval, generated by classical differential operators whose eigenfunctions are…
We construct an index of first-order, self-adjoint, elliptic differential operators in the $K$-theory of a Fr\'echet algebra of smooth kernels with faster than exponential off-diagonal decay. We show that this index can be represented by an…
The heat trace asymptotics on the noncommutative torus, where generalized Laplacians are made out of left and right regular representations, is fully determined. It turns out that this question is very sensitive to the number-theoretical…
A method is suggested for the calculation of the DeWitt-Seeley-Gilkey (DWSG) coefficients for the operator $\sqrt{-\nabla^2 + V(x)}$ basing on a generalization of the pseudodifferential operator technique. The lowest DWSG coefficients for…
