We study functional determinants for Dirac operators on manifolds with boundary and discuss the ellipticity of boundary problems by using the Calder\'on projector. We give, for local boundary conditions, an explicit formula relating these…
We demonstrate a method of associating the principal symbol at a $K$-point with a linear differential operator acting between modules over a commutative algebra, and we use it to define the ellipticity of a linear differential operator in a…
In this paper, an upper semismooth function is defined to be a lower semicontinuous function whose radial subderivative satisfies a mild directional upper semicontinuity property. Examples of upper semismooth functions are the proper lower…
The determinant for complex matrices cannot be extended to quaternionic matrices. Instead, the Study determinant and the closely related $q$-determinant are widely used. We show that the Study determinant can be characterized as the unique…
Let M be a closed manifold. We show that the Kontsevich-Vishik trace, which is defined on the set of all classical pseudodifferential operators on M, whose (complex) order is not an integer greater than or equal to -dim M, is the unique…
An operator $H=H_{0}+V$ where $H_{0}=i^{-N} \partial^{N}$ ($N$ is arbitrary) and $V$ is a differential operator of order $N-1$ with coefficients decaying sufficiently rapidly at infinity is considered in the space $L^2(\Bbb R)$. The goal of…
In this paper we analyze the spectral zeta function associated with a Laplace operator acting on scalar functions on an N-dimensional Euclidean space in the presence of a spherically symmetric background potential. The obtained analytic…
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…
In this article, we shall construct the resolvent of Laplacian at high energies near the spectrum on non-product conic manifolds with a single cone tip. Microlocally, the resolvent kernel is the sum of b-pseudodifferential operators,…
We use the $\zeta$-function regularization and an integral representation of the complex power of a pseudo differential operator, to give an unambiguous definition of the determinant of the Dirac operator. We bring this definition to a…
The generalised Wronskian of differential order $k\geqslant 1$ for $N$ functions $f_1$, $\ldots$, $f_N$ in $d\geqslant 1$ independent variables $x^1$, $\ldots$, $x^d$ is the determinant of the matrix with these functions' derivatives…
In this paper, we consider an extension of Jacobi's symbol, the so called rational $2^k$-th power residue symbol. In Section 3, we prove a novel generalization of Zolotarev's lemma. In Sections 4, 5 and 6, we show that several hard…
Guillemin's trace formula is an expression for the distributional trace of an operator defined by pulling back functions along a flow on a compact manifold. We obtain an equivariant generalisation of this formula, for proper, cocompact…
Functional determinants of differential operators play a prominent role in theoretical and mathematical physics, and in particular in quantum field theory. They are, however, difficult to compute in non-trivial cases. For one dimensional…
We prove a general estimate for the Weyl remainder of an elliptic, semiclassical pseudodifferential operator in terms of volumes of recurrence sets for the Hamilton flow of its principal symbol. This quantifies earlier results of Volovoy.…
The goal of this paper is to compute the zeta function determinant for the massive Laplacian on Riemann caps (or spherical suspensions). These manifolds are defined as compact and boundaryless $D-$dimensional manifolds deformed by a…
It is shown that a valuation of residue characteristic different from $2$ and $3$ on a field $E$ has at most one extension to the function field of an elliptic curve over $E$, for which the residue field extension is transcendental but not…
We establish a Riesz potential criterion for Lebesgue continuity points of functions of bounded $\mathbb{A}$-variation, where $\mathbb{A}$ is a $\mathbb{C}$-elliptic differential operator of arbitrary order. This result might even be of…
We study closed extensions A of an elliptic differential operator on a manifold with conical singularities, acting as an unbounded operator on a weighted L_p-space. Under suitable conditions we show that the resolvent (\lambda-A)^{-1}…
We show that the Szego regularized determinant of a zeroth order operator differs from the zeta regularized determinant of the same operator by a local term. In addition, we compute multiplicative anomalies for the zeta regularized…
