We introduce and study new invariants associated with Laplace type elliptic partial differential operators on manifolds. These invariants are constructed by using the off-diagonal heat kernel; they are not pure spectral invariants, that is,…

In this note we consider a heat trace expansion on a manifold with wedge-like singularity. We show that there are two terms in the expansion that contain information about the presence of the singularity, namely the logarithmic term…

Let $P$ be a Laplace type operator acting on a smooth hermitean vector bundle $V$ of fiber $\mathbb{C}^N$ over a compact Riemannian manifold given locally by $P= - [g^{\mu\nu} u(x)\partial_\mu\partial_\nu + v^\nu(x)\partial_\nu + w(x)]$…

The off-diagonal heat-kernel expansion of a Laplace operator including a general gauge-connection is computed on a compact manifold without boundary up to third order in the curvatures. These results are used to study the early-time…

Denoting by $\Delta_\nu$ the Fubini-Study Laplacian perturbed by a uniform magnetic field strength proportional to $\nu$, this operator has a discrete spectrum consisting on eigenvalues $\beta_m, \ m\in\mathbb{Z}_+$, when acting on bounded…

Kernel functions for Laplacian integral operators are constructed on $p$-adic analytic manifolds using charts and transition maps from an atlas with connected nerve complex. In the compact case, an operator of Vladimirov-Taibleson type…

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…

In this letter we present the calculation of the $a_{5}$ heat kernel coefficient of the heat operator trace for a partial differential operator of Laplace type on a compact Riemannian manifold with Dirichlet and Robin boundary conditions.

We consider the Hodge Laplacian on manifolds with incomplete edge singularities, with infinite dimensional von Neumann spaces and intricate elliptic boundary value theory. We single out a class of its algebraic self-adjoint extensions. Our…

For an elliptic selfadjoint operator $P =-[u^{\mu\nu}\partial_\mu \partial_\nu +v^\nu \partial_\nu +w]$ acting on a fiber bundle over a Riemannian manifold, where $u,v^\mu,w$ are $N\times N$-matrices, we develop a method to compute the…

We obtain pointwise upper bounds on the derivatives of the heat kernel on Damek-Ricci spaces. Applying these estimates we prove the $L^p$-boundedness of Littlewood-Paley-Stein operators.

In this work we consider the $\eta$-invariant for pseudodifferential operators of tensor product type, also called bisingular pseudodifferential operators. We study complex powers of classical bisingular operators. We prove the trace…

Let $M$ be a complete non-compact manifold satisfying the volume doubling condition, with doubling index $N$ and reverse doubling index $n$, $n\le N$, both for large balls. Assume a Gaussian upper bound for the heat kernel, and an…

Building on the work of Debord and Skandalis, van Erp and Yuncken introduced a groupoid approach to pseudo-differential operators which has various advantages over the classical approach using H\"ormander's symbolic calculus. In a recent…

The heat kernel expansion is a very convenient tool for studying one-loop divergences, anomalies and various asymptotics of the effective action. The aim of this report is to collect useful information on the heat kernel coefficients…

The exponential kernel \[E{g}(\lambda,w) = \exp -\frac{1}{\pi}\int_{\mathbb{C} } \frac{g(u)}{\overline{u-w} (u-\lambda) } da(u ),\] where the compactly supported bounded measurable function $g$ satisfies $0 \leq g\leq 1,$ and suitably…

Given an elliptic operator $L= - \mathrm{div} (A \nabla \cdot)$ subject to mixed boundary conditions on an open subset of $\mathbb{R}^d$, we study the relation between Gaussian pointwise estimates for the kernel of the associated heat…

A $(p,q)$-double form on a Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$ can be considered simultaneously as a vector-valued differential $p$-form over $M$ or alternatively as a vector-valued $q$-form. Accordingly, the usual Hodge-de Rham Laplacian on…

For an even dimensional, compact, conformal manifold without boundary we construct a conformally invariant differential operator of order the dimension of the manifold. In the conformally flat case, this operator coincides with the critical…

We develop the theory of modulated operators in general principal ideals of compact operators. For Laplacian modulated operators we establish Connes' trace formula in its local Euclidean model and a global version thereof. It expresses…
