An Index Theorem for Families of Elliptic Operators Invariant with Respect to a Bundle of Lie Groups

چکیده

We define the equivariant family index of a family of elliptic operators invariant with respect to the free action of a bundle G of Lie groups. If the fibers of G → B are simply-connected solvable, we then compute the Chern character of the (equivariant family) index, the result being given by an Atiyah-Singer type formula. We also study traces on the corresponding algebras of pseudodifferential operators and obtain a local index formula for such families of invariant operators, using the Fedosov product. For topologically non-trivial bundles we have to use methods of non-commutative geometry. We discuss then as an application the construction of “higher-eta invariants,” which are morphisms Kn(Ψ∞inv(Y )) → C. We also obtain new proofs of the regularity at s = 0 of η(D0, s), the eta function of D0, and of the relation η(D0, s) = πTr1(DD) (here D = D0 + ∂t, D = [D, t]). The algebras of invariant pseudodifferential operators that we study, ψ inv (Y ) and Ψ inv (Y ), are generalizations of “parameter dependent” algebras of pseudodifferential operators (with parameter in R), so our results provide also an index theorem for elliptic, parameter dependent pseudodifferential operators.

An Index Theorem for Families Elliptic Operators Invariant with Respect to a Bundle of Lie Groups

We define the equivariant family index of a family of elliptic operators invariant with respect to the free action of a bundle G of Lie groups. In this paper we concentrate on the issues specific to the case when G is trivial, so the action reduces to the action of a Lie group G. For G simply-connected solvable, we then compute the Chern character of the (equivariant family) index, the result b...

An Index Theorem for Gauge-invariant Families: the Case of Solvable Groups

We define the gauge-equivariant index of a family of elliptic operators invariant with respect to the free action of a family G → B of Lie groups (these families are called “gauge-invariant families” in what follows). If the fibers of G → B are simply-connected and solvable, we compute the Chern character of the gauge-equivariant index, the result being given by an AtiyahSinger type formula tha...

An index for gauge-invariant operators and the Dixmier-Douady invariant

Let G → B be a bundle of compact Lie groups acting on a fiber bundle Y → B. In this paper we introduce and study gauge-equivariant K-theory groups K G(Y ). These groups satisfy the usual properties of the equivariant K-theory groups, but also some new phenomena arise due to the topological non-triviality of the bundle G → B. As an application, we define a gauge-equivariant index for a family of...

Fractional Analytic Index

For a finite rank projective bundle over a compact manifold, so associated to a torsion, Dixmier-Douady, 3-class, w, on the manifold, we define the ring of differential operators ‘acting on sections of the bundle’ in a formal sense. In particular any oriented even-dimensional manifold carries a projective spin Dirac operator in this sense. More generally the corresponding space of pseudodiffere...
