The Spectral Flow of the Odd Signature Operator and Higher Massey Products
Let EC denote the complexified adjoint Lie-algebra bundle associated to P . For the purposes of this summary, we will assume that E = EC; the more general case will be dealt with in section 7. Let dt : Ω (M ;EC)→Ω (M ;EC) denote the exterior derivative corresponding to At for each t. At t = 0, we wish to calculate the dimension of ker(D0), which gives the number of eigenvalues λα(t) of Dt passi...
متن کاملThe Spectral flow and the Maslov index
exist and have no zero eigenvalue. A typical example for A(t) is the div-grad-curl operator on a 3-manifold twisted by a connection which depends on t. Atiyah et al proved that the Fredholm index of such an operator DA is equal to minus the “spectral flow” of the family {A(t)}t∈R. This spectral flow represents the net change in the number of negative eigenvalues of A(t) as t runs from −∞ to ∞. ...

for all k. This shows that the sequence of functions is uniformly equicontinuous. Let now t ∈ R and assume that the sequence (|fk(t)|) is unbounded. Then it follows from the estimate that the sequence (min[t−1,t+1] |fk|) is unbounded and therefore also that (‖fk‖L2) is unbounded, contradiction. We conclude the the sequence ‖fk(t)‖ is bounded, for every t ∈ R. Let now T > 0. Then it follows by A...
متن کاملThe Chiral index of the fermionic signature operator
We define an index of the fermionic signature operator on even-dimensional globally hyperbolic spin manifolds of finite lifetime. The invariance of the index under homotopies is studied. The definition is generalized to causal fermion systems with a chiral grading. We give examples of space-times and Dirac operators thereon for which our index is non-trivial.
متن کاملOn the spectral flow of the hermitian Dirac–Wilson operator
The spectral flow of the hermitian Dirac–Wilson operator H(m) has been used to construct a lattice version of the index of the Dirac operator. We clarify some aspects of this construction by showing the following (in 4D): When the curvature of the lattice gauge field satisfies an approximate smoothness condition, crossings of the origin by eigenvalues of H(m) can only happen when m is close to ...
