We survey the notion of the spectral shift function of a pair of self-adjoint operators and recent progress on its connection with the Witten index. We also describe a proof of Krein's Trace Theorem that does not use complex analysis [53]…

We review previous work on spectral flow in connection with certain self-adjoint model operators $\{A(t)\}_{t\in \mathbb{R}}$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, joining endpoints $A_\pm$, and the index of the operator $D_{A}^{}= (d/d t) + A$…

Let $\{A(t)\}_{t \in \mathbb{R}}$ be a path of self-adjoint Fredholm operators in a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, joining endpoints $A_\pm$ as $t \to \pm \infty$. Computing the index of the operator $D_A= (d/d t) + A$ acting in…

We compute the Fredholm index, ${\rm ind}(D_A)$, of the operator $D_A = (d/dt) + A$ on $L^2(\mathbb{R};\mathcal{H})$ associated with the operator path $\{A(t)\}_{t=-\infty}^{\infty}$, where $(A f)(t) = A(t) f(t)$ for a.e. $t\in\mathbb{R}$,…

Using the general formalism of [12], a study of index theory for non-Fredholm operators was initiated in [9]. Natural examples arise from $(1+1)$-dimensional differential operators using the model operator $D_A$ in $L^2(\mathbb{R}^2; dt…

Consider a selfadjoint unbounded operator D on a Hilbert space H and a one parameter norm continuous family of selfadjoint bounded operators {A(t)} parametrized by the real line. Then under certain conditions \cite{RS95} that include the…

We construct a Hilbert scale on $L^2([0,1])$ via a unitary twist operator that maps the standard Fourier basis to half-integer frequency exponentials. The resulting weighted spaces, equipped with norms indexed by $(1+|k+\tfrac{1}{2}|^2)^s$,…

In \cite{APSIII} Atiyah, Patodi and Singer introduced spectral flow for elliptic operators on odd dimensional compact manifolds. They argued that it could be computed from the Fredholm index of an elliptic operator on a manifold of one…

We consider Fredholm determinants of the form identity minus product of spectral projections corresponding to isolated parts of the spectrum of a pair of self-adjoint operators. We show an identity relating such determinants to an integral…

We consider Dirac-Schr\"odinger operators over odd-dimensional Euclidean space. The conditions for the potential are based on those of C. Callias in his famous paper on the corresponding index problem. However, we treat the case where the…

We study the Atiyah-Patodi-Singer (APS) index, and its equality to the spectral flow, in an abstract, functional analytic setting. More precisely, we consider a (suitably continuous or differentiable) family of self-adjoint Fredholm…

In this article we consider operators of the form $\partial_s\xi+A(s)\xi$ where $s$ lies in an interval $[-T,T]$ and $s\mapsto A(s)$ is continuous. Without boundary conditions these operators are not Fredholm. However, using interpolation…

An equality between the spectral flow of a family $A$ of self-adjoint Fredholm operators and the index of the associated differential operator $\frac{d}{dt}-iA$ with Atiyah-Patodi-Singer-style boundary conditions is shown. This generalizes…

If $A \colon D(A) \subset \mathcal{H} \to \mathcal{H}$ is an unbounded Fredholm operator of index $0$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ with a dense domain $D(A)$, then its spectrum is either discrete or the entire complex plane. This…

In noncommutative geometry one is interested in invariants such as the Fredholm index or spectral flow and their calculation using cyclic cocycles. A variety of formulae have been established under side conditions called summability…

We study the behaviour of the norm of the resolvent for non-self-adjoint operators of the form $A := -\partial_x + W(x)$, with $W(x) \ge 0$, defined in $L^2(\mathbb{R})$. We provide a sharp estimate for the norm of its resolvent operator,…

For bounded right linear operators, in a right quaternionic Hilbert space with a left multiplication defined on it, we study the approximate $S$-point spectrum. In the same Hilbert space, then we study the Fredholm operators and the…

We consider Dirichlet-to-Neumann maps associated with (not necessarily self-adjoint) Schrodinger operators in $L^2(\Omega; d^n x)$, $n=2,3$, where $\Omega$ is an open set with a compact, nonempty boundary satisfying certain regularity…

We develop a principal trace and generalized index formula for a Dirac-Schr\"odinger operator $D$ on open space of odd dimension $d\geq 3$ with a potential given by a family of self-adjoint unbounded operators acting on a infinite…

Let $\mathcal{X}$ be a separable Hilbert space with norm $\|\cdot\|$ and let $T>0$. Let $Q$ be a linear, self-adjoint, positive, trace class operator on $\mathcal{X}$, let $F:\mathcal{X}\rightarrow \mathcal{X}$ be a (smooth enough) function…
