This paper concerns Fredholm theory in several variables, and its applications to Hilbert spaces of analytic functions. One feature is the introduction of ideas from commutative algebra to operator theory. Specifically, we introduce a…

This note studies Arveson's curvature invariant for d-contractions specialized to the case d=1 of a single contraction operator on a Hilbert space. It establishes a formula which gives an easy-to-understand meaning for the curvature of a…

Based on operators borrowed from scattering theory, several concrete realizations of index theorems are proposed. The corresponding operators belong to some C*-algebras of pseudo-differential operators with coefficients which either have…

We extend the relative index theorem on non-compact manifolds to encompass a wide variety of hypoelliptic differential operators of arbitrary order, demonstrating that the change in index when changing a differential operator locally can be…

We study Fredholm properties and index formulas for Dirac operators over complete Riemannian manifolds with straight ends. An important class of examples of such manifolds are complete Riemannian manifolds with pinched negative sectional…

This largely pedagogical paper recalls some facts on defect numbers of products of closed operators employing results from the theory of semi-Fredholm operators and then applies these facts to positive integer powers of symmetric operators…

We give a self-contained proof of a formula computing the Fredholm index for asymptotically non-degenerate Cauchy-Riemann operators on surfaces with boundary punctures using the method of large antilinear deformations. This method for…

Given an arbitrary closed set A of $\mathbf{R}^{n}$, we establish the relation between the eigenvalues of the approximate differential of the spherical image map of A and the principal curvatures of A introduced by Hug-Last-Weil, thus…

Using the index theory for twisted Dirac operators acting on sections of Lipschitz bundles over non-compact manifolds, we prove Llarull-type comparison results in scalar curvature geometry. They apply to spin Riemannian manifolds with…

Kadison characterized the diagonals of projections and observed the presence of an integer. Arveson later recognized this integer as a Fredholm index obstruction applicable to any normal operator with finite spectrum coincident with its…

A curvature inequality is established for contractive commuting tuples of operators in the Cowen-Douglas class of rank n. Properties of the extremal operators, that is, the operators which achieve equality, are investigated. Specifically, a…

The tensorial curvature measures are tensor-valued generalizations of the curvature measures of convex bodies. We prove a set of Crofton formulae for such tensorial curvature measures. These formulae express the integral mean of the…

In this short note we show how the higher index theory can be used to prove results concerning the non-existence of complete riemannian metric with uniformly positive scalar curvature at infinity. By improving some classical results due to…

We give an example of an operator that satisfies the curvature condition as defined in [2], but is not similar to the backward shift S* on the Hardy class H^2. We conclude therefore that the contraction assumption in the similarity…

The index of a pseudo B-Fredholm operator will be defined and generalize the usual index of a B-Fredholm operator. This concept will be used to extend some known results in Fredholm's theory. Among other results, the nullity, the…

In this paper we show that quasisimilar $n$-tuples of tensor products of $m$-isometric operators have the same spectra, essential spectra and indices. The properties of single Fredholm operators possess \cite{4} is related to an important…

We introduce a class of "weakly asymptotically hyperbolic" geometries whose sectional curvatures tend to $-1$ and are $C^0$, but are not necessarily $C^1$, conformally compact. We subsequently investigate the rate at which curvature…

For any integral operator $K$ in the Schatten--von Neumann classes of compact operators and its approximated operator $K_N\sim(N\ge1)$ obtained by using for example a quadrature or projection method, we show that the convergence of the…

In the paper two important theorems about complete affine spheres are generalized to the case of statistical structures on abstract manifolds. The assumption about constant sectional curvature is replaced by the assumption that the…

Non-commutative versions of Arveson's curvature invariant and Euler characteristic for a commuting $n$-tuple of operators are introduced. The non-commutative curvature invariant is sensitive enough to determine if an $n$-tuple is free. In…
