TY - JOUR A1 - Bär, Christian A1 - Moroianu, Sergiu T1 - Heat kernel asymptotics for roots of generalized laplacians N2 - We describe the heat kernel asymptotics for roots of a Laplace type operator on a closed manifold. A previously known relation between the Wodzicki residue and heat trace asymptotics is shown to hold pointwise for the corresponding densities.
