The Maslov index and the spectra of second order elliptic operators

March 23, 2018
2-3 PM, room TBD

Abstract

In this talk I will discuss a formula relating the spectral flow of the one-parameter families of second order elliptic operators to the Maslov index, the topological invariant counting the signed number of conjugate points of certain paths of Lagrangian planes. This talk is based on joint work with Yuri Latushkin.
