Asymptotic formulae in spectral geometry
1 online resource (viii, 304 pages) : illustrations
"A great deal of progress has been made recently in the field of asymptotic formulas that arise in the theory of Dirac and Laplace type operators. These include not only the classical heat trace asymptotics and heat content asymptotics, but also the more exotic objects encountered in the context of manifolds with boundaries and imposing suitable boundary conditions."
"Asymptotic Formulae in Spectral Geometry collects these results and computations into one book. The author focuses on the functional and special cases methods of computing asymptotic heat trace and heat content coefficients in the heat equations and introduces results derived from the Seeley calculus and other methods. He incorporates the work of many authors into the presentation, and includes a complete bibiliography that serves as a roadmap to the literature on the subject."--Jacket.
Chapter 1 Analytic preliminaries -- chapter 2 Heat Content Asymptotics -- chapter 3 Heat Trace Asymptotics.
