Abstract |
|
Given a Galois covering of complete spin manifolds where the base metric has positive scalar curvature near infinity, we prove that for small enough , the spectral projection of the Dirac operator has finite trace in the Atiyah von Neumann algebra. This allows us to define the index in the even case, and we prove its compatibility with the Xie–Yu higher index and deduce versions of the classical Gromov–Lawson relative index theorems. Finally, we briefly discuss some Gromov–Lawson invariants. |
