A Riemann-Roch formula for singular reductions by circle actions

Abstract

We compute a Riemann-Roch formula for the invariant Riemann-Roch number of a quantizable Hamiltonian S1S^1-manifold (M,ω,J)(M,\omega,\mathcal{J}) in terms of the geometry of its symplectic quotient, allowing 00 to be a singular value of the moment map J:MR\mathcal{J}:M\to\mathbb{R}. The formula involves a new explicit local invariant of the singularities. Our approach relies on a complete singular stationary phase expansion of the associated Witten integral.
