In a recent work, T.S. Evans has claimed that the multiplicative anomaly associated with the zeta-function regularization of functional determinants is regularization dependent. We show that, if one makes use of consistent definitions, this…
Let $A$ be an elliptic pseudodifferential operator of positive order on a compact closed manifold, and let $T$ be a pseudodifferential operator of negative order such that $T^m$ is of trace class. We compute $\log\det(A(I+T))-\log\det…
Multivariate renormalisation techniques are implemented in order to build, study and then renormalise at the poles, branched zeta functions associated with trees. For this purpose, we first prove algebraic results and develop analytic…
We study the asymptotic behaviour of regularized determinants of certain Laplace type operators with respect to singular deformations of the underlying manifold which are obtained by stretching a tubular neighborhood of an embedded…
We consider the resolvent of a system of first order differential operators with a regular singularity, admitting a family of self-adjoint extensions. We find that the asymptotic expansion for the resolvent in the general case presents…
Let X be a compact Riemannian manifold of dimension two or three and let P be a point of X. We derive comparison formulas relating the zeta-regularized determinant of an arbitrary self-adjoint extension of (symmetric) Laplace operator with…
We discuss the $\zeta-$regularized determinant of elliptic boundary value problems on a line segment. Our framework is applicable for separated and non-separated boundary conditions.
Elizalde, Vanzo, and Zerbini have shown that the effective action of two free Euclidean scalar fields in flat space contains a `multiplicative anomaly' when zeta-function regularization is used. This is related to the Wodzicki residue. I…
In this paper, we study the arithmetic zeta function $$\mathscr{Z}_{\mathcal{X}}(s) = \prod_p \prod_{\substack{x \in \mathcal{X}_p \\ \text{closed}}} \Big( \frac{1}{1-|\kappa(x)|^{-s}} \Big)^{\mathfrak{m}_{p}(x)}$$ associated to a scheme…
After a brief survey of zeta function regularization issues and of the related multiplicative anomaly, illustrated with a couple of basic examples, namely the harmonic oscillator and quantum field theory at finite temperature, an…
It is known that local zeta functions associated with real analytic functions can be analytically continued as meromorphic functions to the whole complex plane. In this paper, the case of specific (non-real analytic) smooth functions is…
We provide sharp boundary regularity estimates for solutions to elliptic equations driven by an integro-differential operator obtained as the sum of a Laplacian with a nonlocal operator generalizing a fractional Laplacian. Our approach…
The purpose of this paper is to describe asymptotic formulas for determinants of a sum of finite Toeplitz and Hankel matrices with singular generating functions. The formulas are similar to those of the analogous problem for finite Toeplitz…
In this article, we characterize the bounded and the compact multiplication operators between distinct iterated logarithmic Lipschitz spaces, and between the Lipschitz space and an iterated logarithmic Lipschitz space of an infinite tree.…
For $\Pi \subset \mathbb{R}^2$ a connected, open, bounded set whose boundary is a finite union of disjoint polygons whose vertices have integer coordinates, the logarithm of the discrete Laplacian on $L\Pi \cap \mathbb{Z}^2$ with Dirichlet…

The well-known formula $det(A\cdot B)=\det A \cdot \det B$ can be easily proved for finite dimensional matrices but it may be incorrect for the functional determinants of differential operators, including the ones which are relevant for…
We study some critical elliptic problems involving the difference of two nonlocal operators, or the difference of a local operator and a nonlocal operator. The main result is the existence of two nontrivial weak solutions, one with negative…
The purpose of this paper is to compute the asymptotics of determinants of finite sections of operators that are trace class perturbations of Toeplitz operators. For example, we consider the asymptotics in the case where the matrices are of…
Various types of local zeta functions studied in asymptotic group theory admit two natural operations: (1) change the prime and (2) perform local base extensions. Often, the effects of both of these operations can be expressed…
