The concept of determinant for a linear operator in an infinite-dimensional space is addressed, by using the derivative of the operator's zeta-function (following Ray and Singer) and, eventually, through its zeta-function trace. A little…

We prove a semiclassical resolvent estimate for a broad class of non-self-adjoint, non-elliptic pseudodifferential operators in the low-lying spectral regime. The proof relies on improved ellipticity properties for the symbol of the…
For operators on a compact manifold $X$ with boundary $\partial X$, the basic zeta coefficient $C_0(B, P_{1,T})$ is the regular value at $s=0$ of the zeta function $\Tr(B P_{1,T}^{-s})$, where $B=P_++G$ is a pseudodifferential boundary…
