带边界流形上的非Laplace型算子

Non-Laplace type Operators on Manifolds with Boundary

Ivan G. Avramidi

摘要:

研究了作用在紧致流形上具有非纯量正定前导符号边界的向量丛截面上的二阶椭圆型偏微分算子。这种算子,称为非拉普拉斯型算子,特别出现在规范场、弦论以及非对易引力理论模型中,当不是黎曼度量,而是一个矩阵值自伴对称二张量,它扮演"非对易“度量的角色时。众所周知,相应的热核的迹在时间的半整数次幂上存在小时间渐近展开。我们发起的显式计算这些系数的系统的方法的发展,构造相应的热方程的parameters和计算显式的前两个热跟踪系数。

英文摘要:

We study second-order elliptic partial differential operators acting on sections of vector bundles over a compact manifold with boundary with a non-scalar positive definite leading symbol. Such operators, called non-Laplace type operators, appear, in particular, in gauge field theories, string theory as well as models of non-commutative gravity theories, when instead of a Riemannian metric there is a matrix valued self-adjoint symmetric two-tensor that plays the role of a ``non-commutative'' metric. It is well known that there is a small-time asymptotic expansion of the trace of the corresponding heat kernel in half-integer powers of time. We initiate the development of a systematic approach for the explicit calculation of these coefficients, construct the corresponding parametrix of the heat equation and compute explicitly the first two heat trace coefficients.
