We use the BFK-gluing formula for zeta-determinants to compute the zeta-determinant and analytic torsion of a metric mapping torus induced from an isometry. As applications, we compute the zeta-determinants of the Laplacians defined on a…

In this note we specialize and illustrate the ideas developed in the paper math.DG/0201112 of the first author ("Index theory, eta forms, and Deligne cohomology ") in the case of the determinant line bundle. We discuss the surgery formula…

We consider a class of singular Riemannian manifolds, the deformed spheres $S^N_k$, defined as the classical spheres with a one parameter family $g[k]$ of singular Riemannian structures, that reduces for $k=1$ to the classical metric. After…

This is a survey of recent results on zeta- and eta-function poles and values for realizations of Laplace- and Dirac-type operators defined by pseudodifferential projection boundary conditions (including the Atiyah-Patodi-Singer operator…

We study the zeta-regularized determinant of a non self-adjoint elliptic operator on a closed odd-dimensional manifold. We show that, if the spectrum of the operator is symmetric with respect to the imaginary axis, then the determinant is…

We provide an interpretation of the APS index theorem of Piazza-Schick and Zeidler in terms of coarse homotopy theory. On the one hand we propose a motivic version of the boundary value problem, the index theorem, and the associated…

The set of Clifford bundles of bounded geometry over open manifolds can be endowed with a metrizable uniform structure. For one fixed bundle $E$ we define the generalized component $\gencomp (E)$ as the set of Clifford bundles $E'$ which…

We study the asymptotics of the heat trace $\Tr\{fPe^{-tP^2}\}$ where $P$ is an operator of Dirac type, where $f$ is an auxiliary smooth smearing function which is used to localize the problem, and where we impose spectral boundary…

We explicitly give factorization formulas for higher depth determinants, which are defined via derivatives of the spectral zeta function at non-positive integer points, of Laplacians on the n-sphere in terms of the multiple gamma functions.

We study the regularized determinant of the Laplacian as a functional on the space of Mandelstam diagrams (noncompact translation surfaces glued from finite and semi-infinite cylinders). A Mandelstam diagram can be considered as a compact…

We study an inverse boundary value problem associated with $p$-Laplacian which is further perturbed by a linear second order term, defined on a bounded set $\Omega$ in $\R^n, n\geq 2$. We recover the coefficients at the boundary from the…

We introduce a zeta function of digraphs that determines, and is determined by, the spectra of all linear combinations of the adjacency matrix, its transpose, the out-degree matrix, and the in-degree matrix. In particular, zeta-equivalence…

We consider the $\zeta$-regularized determinant of the Friedrichs extension of the Dirichlet Laplace-Beltrami operator on curvilinear polygonal domains with corners of arbitrary positive angles. In particular, this includes slit domains. We…

We show that there is a canonical construction of a zeta (Bismut-Quillen) connection on the determinant line bundle of a family of APS elliptic boundary problems and that it has curvature equal to the 2-form part of a relative eta form.
