Overview

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. Asymptotic Formulae in Spectral Geometry collects these results and computations into one book.

Author and Focus

Written by a leading pioneer in the field, it focuses on the functorial and special cases methods of computing asymptotic heat trace and heat content coefficients in the heat equation.

Content and Resources

It incorporates the work of many authors into the presentation, and includes a complete bibliography that serves as a roadmap to the literature on the subject.

Intended Audience

Geometers, mathematical physicists, and analysts alike will undoubtedly find this to be the definitive book on the subject.
