Hyperbolicity, irrationality exponents and the eta invariant

英文摘要：

We consider the remainder term in the semiclassical limit formula for the eta invariant on a metric contact manifold, proving in general that it is controlled by volumes of recurrence sets of the Reeb flow. This particularly gives a logarithmic improvement of the remainder for Anosov Reeb flows, while for certain elliptic flows the improvement is in terms of irrationality measures of corresponding Floquet exponents.
