Index theory of the de Rham complex on manifolds with periodic ends

Tomasz Mrowka, Daniel Ruberman and Nikolai Saveliev

Algebraic & Geometric Topology 14 (2014) 3689–3700
Abstract

We study the de Rham complex on a smooth manifold with a periodic end modeled on an infinite cyclic cover X̃ X. The completion of this complex in exponentially weighted L2 norms is Fredholm for all but finitely many exceptional weights determined by the eigenvalues of the covering translation map H(X̃) H(X̃). We calculate the index of this weighted de Rham complex for all weights away from the exceptional ones.
