Boundary value problems and layer potentials on manifolds with cylindrical ends

Marius Mitrea, Victor Nistor (2007)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

We study the method of layer potentials for manifolds with boundary and cylindrical ends. The fact that the boundary is non-compact prevents us from using the standard characterization of Fredholm or compact pseudo-differential operators between Sobolev spaces, as, for example, in the works of Fabes-Jodeit-Lewis and Kral-Wedland . We first study the layer potentials depending on a parameter on compact manifolds. This then yields the invertibility of the relevant boundary integral operators...

Geometric heat kernel coefficient for APS-type boundary conditions

Gorm Salomonsen (1998)

Journées équations aux dérivées partielles

Similarity:

I present an alternative way of computing the index of a Dirac operator on a manifold with boundary and a special family of pseudodifferential boundary conditions. The local version of this index theorem contains a number of divergence terms in the interior, which are higher order heat kernel invariants. I will present a way of associating boundary terms to those divergence terms, which are rather local of nature.

Elliptic operators and higher signatures

Eric Leichtnam, Paolo Piazza (2004)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

Similarity:

Building on the theory of elliptic operators, we give a unified treatment of the following topics: - the problem of homotopy invariance of Novikov’s higher signatures on closed manifolds, - the problem of cut-and-paste invariance of Novikov’s higher signatures on closed manifolds, - the problem of defining higher signatures on manifolds with boundary and proving their homotopy invariance.
