We consider rough metrics on smooth manifolds and corresponding Laplacians induced by such metrics. We demonstrate that globally continuous heat kernels exist and are Holder continuous locally in space and time. This is done via local parabolic Harnack estimates for weak solutions of operators in divergence form with bounded measurable coefficients in weighted Sobolev spaces.
We prove that the Atiyah–Singer Dirac operator in L2 depends Riesz continuously on L∞ perturbations of complete metrics g on a smooth manifold. The Lipschitz bound for the map depends on bounds on Ricci curvature and its first derivatives as well as a lower bound on injectivity radius. Our proof uses harmonic analysis techniques related to Calderón’s first commutator and the Kato square root problem. We also show perturbation results for more general functions of general Dirac-type operators on vector bundles.
On a smooth complete Riemannian spin manifold with smooth compact boundary, we demonstrate that Atiyah-Singer Dirac operator in depends Riesz continuously on perturbations of local boundary conditions The Lipschitz bound for the map depends on Lipschitz smoothness and ellipticity of and bounds on Ricci curvature and its first derivatives as well as a lower bound on injectivity radius away from a compact neighbourhood of the boundary. More generally, we prove perturbation estimates for functional calculi of elliptic operators on manifolds with local boundary conditions.
The spectral theory of the Friedrichs model on the positive half line with Hilbert-Schmidt perturbations, equipped with distinguished analytic properties, is presented. In general, the (separable) multiplicity Hilbert space is assumed to be infinite-dimensional. The results include a spectral characterization of its resonances and the association of so-called Gamov vectors. Sufficient conditions are presented such that all resonances are simple poles of the scattering matrix. The connection between their residual terms and the associated Gamov vectors is pointed out.
Superselection and constraints occur together in many gauge theories, and here we begin a study of such systems. Our main focus will be to analyze compatibility questions between constraining and superselection, and we will develop an example modelled on QED in which our framework is realized. We proceed from a generalization of Doplicher- Roberts superselection theory to the case of the nontrivial center, and a set of Dirac quantum constraints and find conditions under which the superselection structures will survive constraining in some form. This involves an analysis of the restriction and factorization of superselection structures. (c) 2005 American Institute of Physics
The resonances (poles of the scattering matrix) of quantum mechanical scattering by central-symmetric potentials with compact support and zero angular momentum are spectrally characterized directly in terms of the Hamiltonian by a (generalized) eigenvalue problem distinguished by an additional condition (called boundary condition). The connection between the (generalized) eigenspace of a resonance and corresponding Gamov vectors is pointed out. A condition is presented such that a relation between special transition probabilities and infinite sums of residual terms for all complex-conjugated pairs of resonances can be proved. In the case of the square well potential the condition is satisfied.
Generalized eigenvectors for resonances in the Friedrichs model and their associated Gamov vectors

A Gelfand triplet for the Hamiltonian H of the Priedrichs model on R with multiplicity space K, dim K < infinity, is constructed such that exactly the resonances (poles of the inverse of the Livsic-matrix) are (generalized) eigenvalues of H. The corresponding eigen(anti)linear forms are calculated explicitly. Using the wave matrices for the wave (Moller) operators the corresponding eigen(anti)linear forms on the Schwartz space S for the unperturbed Hamiltonian Ho are also calculated. It turns out that they are of pure Dirac type and can be characterized by their corresponding Gamov vector lambda -> k/(zeta(0)-lambda)(-1), zeta(0) resonance, k epsilon K, which is uniquely determined by restriction of S to S boolean AND H-+(2), where H-+(2) denotes the Hardy space of the upper half-plane. Simultaneously this restriction yields a truncation of the generalized evolution to the well-known decay semigroup for t >= 0 of the Toeplitz type on H-+(2). That is: Exactly those pre-Gamov vectors a lambda -> k/(zeta-lambda)(-1), ( from the lower half-plane, k epsilon K., have an extension to a generalized eigenvector of H if zeta is a resonance and if k is from that subspace of K which is uniquely determined by its corresponding Dirac type antilinear form
