Spectral Asymmetry and Index Theory on Manifolds with Generalised Hyperbolic Cusps

We consider a complete Riemannian manifold, which consists of a compact interior and one or more -cusps: infinitely long ends of a type that includes cylindrical ends and hyperbolic cusps. Here, is a function of the radial coordinate that describes the shape of such an end. Given an action by a com...

description We consider a complete Riemannian manifold, which consists of a compact interior and one or more -cusps: infinitely long ends of a type that includes cylindrical ends and hyperbolic cusps. Here, is a function of the radial coordinate that describes the shape of such an end. Given an action by a compact Lie group on such a manifold, we obtain an equivariant index theorem for Dirac operators, under conditions on . These conditions hold in the cases of cylindrical ends and hyperbolic cusps. In the case of cylindrical ends, the cusp contribution equals the delocalised -invariant, and the index theorem reduces to Donnelly's equivariant index theory on compact manifolds with boundary. In general, we find that the cusp contribution is zero if the spectrum of the relevant Dirac operator on a hypersurface is symmetric around zero.

We thank Mike Chen for a helpful discussion, and Christian B¨ar for pointing out a useful reference. We are grateful to the referees for several helpful comments and corrections. In particular, we thank the referee who pointed out an error in the previous version of [27], on which the current paper builds, which has since been fixed.
