After recalling a fundamental identity relating traces and modified Fredholm determinants, we apply it to a class of half-line Schr\"odinger operators $(- d^2/dx^2) + q$ on $(0,\infty)$ with purely discrete spectra. Roughly speaking, the…
Let $G$ be a compact Lie group acting smoothly on a smooth, compact manifold $M$, let $P \in \psi^m(M; E_0, E_1)$ be a $G$--invariant, classical pseudodifferential operator acting between sections of two vector bundles $E_i \to M$, $i =…
If M is a smooth compact oriented Riemannian manifold of dimension n=4k+2, with or without boundary, and F is a vector bundle on M with an inner product and a flat connection, we construct a modification of the Hodge star operator on the…
The main aim of the paper is Fredholm properties of a class of bounded linear operators acting on weighted Lebesgue spaces on an infinite metric graph $\Gamma$ which is periodic with respect to the action of the group ${\mathbb Z}^n$. The…
We study the closed extensions (realizations) of differential operators subject to homogeneous boundary conditions on weighted L_p-Sobolev spaces over a manifold with boundary and conical singularities. Under natural ellipticity conditions…
Let $D:\Omega\xrightarrow{}\Omega$ be a differential operator defined in the exterior algebra $\Omega$ of differential forms over the polynomial ring $S$ in $n$ variables. In this work we give conditions for deforming the module structure…
In this article, we consider algebras $\mathcal{A}$ of non-formal pseudodifferential operators over $S^1$ which contain $C^\infty(S^1),$ understood as multiplication operators. We apply a construction of Chern-Weil type forms in order to…
In a previous paper ([1]), we associated a holonomy groupoid and a C*-algebra to any singular foliation (M,F). Using these, we construct the associated pseudodifferential calculus. This calculus gives meaning to a Laplace operator of any…
We present in this paper the construction of a pseudodifferential calculus on smooth non-compact manifolds associated to a globally defined and coordinate independant complete symbol calculus, that generalizes the standard…
The homotopy groups of the (stabilized) group of invertible pseudodifferential operators of order zero acting on a closed manifold X are computed in terms of the K-theory of the cosphere bundle S*X. At the same time, we show that the…
We consider odd Laplace operators acting on densities of various weight on an odd Poisson (= Schouten) manifold $M$. We prove that the case of densities of weight 1/2 (half-densities) is distinguished by the existence of a unique odd…
In an earlier paper, we showed that the moduli space of deformations of a smooth, compact, orientable special Lagrangian submanifold L in a symplectic manifold X with a non-integrable almost complex structure is a smooth manifold of…
Chiral differential operators (CDOs) are closely related to string geometry and the quantum theory of two-dimensional sigma models. This paper investigates two topics about CDOs on smooth manifolds. In the first half, we study how a Lie…
Let $\mathcal{M}(\mathbb{R}^n)$ be the class of bounded away from one and infinity functions $p:\mathbb{R}^n\to[1,\infty]$ such that the Hardy-Littlewood maximal operator is bounded on the variable Lebesgue space…
Let $G$ be a non-compact simple Lie group with Lie algebra $\mathfrak{g}$. Denote with $m(\mathfrak{g})$ the dimension of the smallest non-trivial $\mathfrak{g}$-module with an invariant non-degenerate symmetric bilinear form. For an…
We extend finite dimensional Chern-Simons theory to certain infinite dimensional principal bundles with connections, in particular to the frame bundle $FLM\to LM$ over the loop space of a Riemannian manifold $M$. Chern-Simons forms are…
We construct a complex of differential forms on a local $C^\infty$-ringed space. The two main classes of spaces we have in mind are differential spaces in the sense of Sikorski and $C^\infty$-schemes. Just as in the case of manifolds the…
Consider an elliptic self-adjoint pseudodifferential operator $A$ acting on $m$-columns of half-densities on a closed manifold $M$, whose principal symbol is assumed to have simple eigenvalues. We show existence and uniqueness of $m$…
We obtain a complete description of semi-Fredholm spectra of operators of the form $(Tf)(z) = w(z)f(B(z)$ acting on the disc algebra in the case when $B$ is either elliptic or double parabolic finite Blaschke product of degree $d \geq 2$…
We define classes of pseudodifferential operators on $G$-bundles with compact base and give a generalized $L^2$ Fredholm theory for invariant operators in these classes in terms of von Neumann's $G$-dimension. We combine this formalism with…
