Compactly supported frames for spaces of distributions associated with nonnegative self-adjoint operators

S. Dekel, G. Kerkyacharian, G. Kyriazis, P. Petrushev (2014)

Studia Mathematica

A small perturbation method is developed and employed to construct frames with compactly supported elements of small shrinking support for Besov and Triebel-Lizorkin spaces in the general setting of a doubling metric measure space in the presence of a nonnegative self-adjoint operator whose heat kernel has Gaussian localization and the Markov property. This allows one, in particular, to construct compactly supported frames for Besov and Triebel-Lizorkin spaces on the sphere, on the interval with...

Comparison of the refined analytic and the Burghelea-Haller torsions

Maxim Braverman, Thomas Kappeler (2007)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

The refined analytic torsion associated to a flat vector bundle over a closed odd-dimensional manifold canonically defines a quadratic form τ on the determinant line of the cohomology. Both τ and the Burghelea-Haller torsion are refinements of the Ray-Singer torsion. We show that whenever the Burghelea-Haller torsion is defined it is equal to ± τ . As an application we obtain new results about the Burghelea-Haller torsion. In particular, we prove a weak version of the Burghelea-Haller conjecture relating...
