On index formulas for manifolds with metric horns

In this paper was discuss the index problem for geometric differential operators (Spin–Dirac opreatorm Gauβ–Bonnet operator, Singnature operator) on manifolds with metric horns. On singular manifolds these operators in general do not unique closed extensions. But there always exist two extremal extensions D$sub:min$esub:and D$sub:max$esub: We describe the quotient D (D$sub:max$esub:)/D(D$sub:esub:) explicitely in geometric resp.topological terms of the base manifolds of the metric horns.

We derive index formulas for the3 Spin–Dirac and GauβBonnet operator. For the Singnature operator we present a partial result.     

A General Families Index Theorem

We consider the heat operator of a Bismut superconnection for a family of generalized Dirac operators defined along the leaves of a foliation with Hausdorff graph. We assume that the strong Novikov–Shubin invariants of the Dirac operators are greater than three times the codimension of the foliation. We compute the t asymptotics associated to a rescaling of the metric by 1/t and show that the heat operator converges to the Chern character of the index bundle of the operator. Combined with previous results, this gives a general families index theorem for such operators.     

On the Kernel of the Equivariant Dirac Operator

We prove a vanishing theorem for certain isotypical components of the kernel of the S¹-equivariant Dirac operator with coefficients in an admissible Clifford module. The method is based on changing the metric by a conformal (generally unbounded) factor and studying the effect of this change on the Dirac operator and its kernel. In the cases relevant to S¹-actions we find that the kernel of the new operator is naturally isomorphic to the kernel of the original operator.     

First Order Approach and Index Theorems for Discrete and Metric Graphs

The aim of the present paper is to introduce a unified notion of Laplacians on discrete and metric graphs. In order to cover all self-adjoint vertex conditions for the associated metric graph Laplacian, we develop systematically a new type of discrete graph operators acting on a decorated graph. The decoration at each vertex of degree d is given by a subspace of , generalising the fact that a function on the standard vertex space has only a scalar value. We illustrate the abstract concept by giving classical examples throughout the article. Our approach includes infinite graphs as well. We develop the notion of exterior derivative, differential forms, Dirac and Laplace operators in the discrete and metric case, using a supersymmetric framework. We calculate the (supersymmetric) index of the discrete Dirac operator generalising the standard index formula involving the Euler characteristic of a graph. Finally, we show that for finite graphs, the corresponding index for the metric Dirac operator agrees with the discrete one.     

An index theorem for open manifolds whose ends are warped products

We give an index formula for the Dirac operator acting onL2-sections of the spinor bundle of an open spin manifold with a co-compact cylindrical end over which the metric is a warped product.

C0 coarse geometry and scalar curvature

In this paper we introduce an alternative form of coarse geometry on proper metric spaces, which is more delicate at infinity than the standard metric coarse structure. There is an assembly map from the K-homology of a space to the K-theory of the C∗-algebra associated to the new coarse structure, which factors through the coarse K-homology of the space (with the new coarse structure). A Dirac-type operator on a complete Riemannian manifold M gives rise to a class in K-homology, and its image under assembly gives a higher index in the K-theory group. The main result of this paper is a vanishing theorem for the index of the Dirac operator on an open spin manifold for which the scalar curvature κ(x) tends to infinity as x tends to infinity. This is derived from a spectral vanishing theorem for any Dirac-type operator with discrete spectrum and finite dimensional eigenspaces.     

A super-twisted Dirac operator and Novikov inequalities

A super-twisted Dirac operator is constructed and deformed suitably. Following Shubin’s approach to Novikov inequalities associated to the deformed de Rham-Hodge operator, we give a for mula for the index of the super-twisted Dirac operator, and Novikov type inequalities for the deformed operator. In particular, we obtain a purely analytic proof of the Hopf index theorem for general vector bundles.     

Positive scalar curvature,higher rho invariants and localization algebras

In this paper, we use localization algebras to study higher rho invariants of closed spin manifolds with positive scalar curvature metrics. The higher rho invariant is a secondary invariant and is closely related to positive scalar curvature problems. The main result of the paper connects the higher index of the Dirac operator on a spin manifold with boundary to the higher rho invariant of the Dirac operator on the boundary, where the boundary is endowed with a positive scalar curvature metric. Our result extends a theorem of Piazza and Schick [27, Theorem 1.17].     

Negative eigenvalues of the Ricci operator of solvable metric Lie algebras

In this paper we get a necessary and sufficient condition for the Ricci operator of a solvable metric Lie algebra to have at least two negative eigenvalues. In particular, this condition implies that the Ricci operator of every non-unimodular solvable metric Lie algebra or every non-abelian nilpotent metric Lie algebra has this property.     

Operator norm localization property of metric spaces under finite decomposition complexity

The notions of operator norm localization property and finite decomposition complexity were recently introduced in metric geometry to study the coarse Novikov conjecture and the stable Borel conjecture. In this paper we show that a metric space X has weak finite decomposition complexity with respect to the operator norm localization property if and only if X itself has the operator norm localization property. It follows that any metric space with finite decomposition complexity has the operator norm localization property. In particular, we obtain an alternative way to prove a very recent result by E. Guentner, R. Tessera and G. Yu that all countable linear groups have the operator norm localization property.     

A Variable Metric Extension of the Forward–Backward–Forward Algorithm for Monotone Operators

We propose a variable metric extension of the forward–backward-forward algorithm for finding a zero of the sum of a maximally monotone operator and a monotone Lipschitzian operator in Hilbert spaces. In turn, this framework provides a variable metric splitting algorithm for solving monotone inclusions involving sums of composite operators. Monotone operator splitting methods recently proposed in the literature are recovered as special cases.

Cobordism invariance of the index of Callias-type operators

We introduce a notion of cobordism of Callias-type operators overcomplete Riemannian manifolds and prove that the index is preserved by such a cobordism. As an application, we prove a gluing formula for Callias-type index. In particular, a usual index of an elliptic operator on a compact manifold can be computed as a sum of indexes of Callias-type operators on two noncompact but topologically simpler manifolds. As another application, we give a new proof of the relative index theorem for Callias-type operators, which also leads to a new proof of the Callias index theorem.     

The generalized decomposition theorem in Banach spaces and its applications

In this paper, we first give a simple proof of the decomposition theorem in Alber (Field Inst. Comm. 25 (2000) 77) and then present a new decomposition of arbitrary elements in reflexive strictly convex and smooth Banach spaces. As applications of the decomposition theorem, we give the representations of the metric projection operator for some kind of closed convex sets. Finally, we provide a sufficient condition under which the generalized projection operator coincides with the metric projection operator.     

Quantized Gromov-Hausdorff distance

A quantized metric space is a matrix order unit space equipped with an operator space version of Rieffel's Lip-norm. We develop for quantized metric spaces an operator space version of quantum Gromov-Hausdorff distance. We show that two quantized metric spaces are completely isometric if and only if their quantized Gromov-Hausdorff distance is zero. We establish a completeness theorem. As applications, we show that a quantized metric space with 1-exact underlying matrix order unit space is a limit of matrix algebras with respect to quantized Gromov-Hausdorff distance, and that matrix algebras converge naturally to the sphere for quantized Gromov-Hausdorff distance.
