We prove a Kastler-Kalau-Walze type theorem for perturbations of Dirac operators on compact manifolds with or without boundary. As a corollary, we give two kinds of operator-theoretic explanations of the gravitational action on boundary. We also compute the spectral action for Dirac operators with two-form perturbations on 4-dimensional compact manifolds.

For spin manifolds with boundary we consider Riemannian metrics which are product near the boundary and are such that the corresponding Dirac operator is invertible when half-infinite cylinders are attached at the boundary. The main result of this paper is that these properties of a metric can be preserved when the metric is extended over a handle of codimension at least two attached at the boundary. Applications of this result include the construction of non-isotopic metrics with invertible Dirac operator, and a concordance existence and classification theorem.

In this paper, we prove an equivariant Kastler–Kalau–Walze type theorem for spin manifolds without boundary. For [Formula: see text]-dimensional spin manifolds with boundary, we also give an equivariant Kastler–Kalau–Walze type theorem. Then we generalize this theorem to the general [Formula: see text]-dimensional manifold. An equivariant Kastler–Kalau–Walze type theorem with torsion is also proved.

AbstractWe show a kind of Obata-type theorem on a compact Einstein n-manifold $$(W, \bar{g})$$ ( W , g ¯ ) with smooth boundary $$\partial W$$ ∂ W . Assume that the boundary $$\partial W$$ ∂ W is minimal in $$(W, \bar{g})$$ ( W , g ¯ ) . If $$(\partial W, \bar{g}|_{\partial W})$$ ( ∂ W , g ¯ | ∂ W ) is not conformally diffeomorphic to $$(S^{n-1}, g_S)$$ ( S n - 1 , g S ) , then for any Einstein metric $$\check{g} \in [\bar{g}]$$ g ˇ ∈ [ g ¯ ] with the minimal boundary condition, we have that, up to rescaling, $$\check{g} = \bar{g}$$ g ˇ = g ¯ . Here, $$g_S$$ g S and $$[\bar{g}]$$ [ g ¯ ] denote respectively the standard round metric on the $$(n-1)$$ ( n - 1 ) -sphere $$S^{n-1}$$ S n - 1 and the conformal class of $$\bar{g}$$ g ¯ . Moreover, if we assume that $$\partial W \subset (W, \bar{g})$$ ∂ W ⊂ ( W , g ¯ ) is totally geodesic, we also show a Gursky-Han type inequality for the relative Yamabe constant of $$(W, \partial W, [\bar{g}])$$ ( W , ∂ W , [ g ¯ ] ) .

In this paper, we establish two kinds of Kastler-Kalau-Walze type theorems for Dirac operators and signature operators twisted by a vector bundle with a non-unitary connection on six-dimensional manifolds with boundary.

AbstractWe develop index theory on compact Riemannian spin manifolds with boundary in the case when the topological information is encoded by bundles which are supported away from the boundary. As a first application, we establish a “long neck principle” for a compact Riemannian spin n-manifold with boundary X, stating that if $${{\,\mathrm{scal}\,}}(X)\ge n(n-1)$$ scal ( X ) ≥ n ( n - 1 ) and there is a nonzero degree map into the sphere $$f:X\rightarrow S^n$$ f : X → S n which is strictly area decreasing, then the distance between the support of $$\text {d}f$$ d f and the boundary of X is at most $$\pi /n$$ π / n . This answers, in the spin setting and for strictly area decreasing maps, a question recently asked by Gromov. As a second application, we consider a Riemannian manifold X obtained by removing k pairwise disjoint embedded n-balls from a closed spin n-manifold Y. We show that if $${{\,\mathrm{scal}\,}}(X)>\sigma >0$$ scal ( X ) > σ > 0 and Y satisfies a certain condition expressed in terms of higher index theory, then the radius of a geodesic collar neighborhood of $$\partial X$$ ∂ X is at most $$\pi \sqrt{(n-1)/(n\sigma )}$$ π ( n - 1 ) / ( n σ ) . Finally, we consider the case of a Riemannian n-manifold V diffeomorphic to $$N\times [-1,1]$$ N × [ - 1 , 1 ] , with N a closed spin manifold with nonvanishing Rosenebrg index. In this case, we show that if $${{\,\mathrm{scal}\,}}(V)\ge \sigma >0$$ scal ( V ) ≥ σ > 0 , then the distance between the boundary components of V is at most $$2\pi \sqrt{(n-1)/(n\sigma )}$$ 2 π ( n - 1 ) / ( n σ ) . This last constant is sharp by an argument due to Gromov.

In this paper, we establish a general Kastler–Kalau–Walze type theorem for any dimensional manifolds with boundary which generalizes the results in [Y. Wang, Lower-dimensional volumes and Kastler–Kalau–Walze type theorem for manifolds with boundary, Commun. Theor. Phys. 54 (2010) 38–42]. This solves a problem of the referee of [J. Wang and Y. Wang, A Kastler–Kalau–Walze type theorem for five-dimensional manifolds with boundary, Int. J. Geom. Meth. Mod. Phys. 12(5) (2015), Article ID: 1550064, 34 pp.], which is a general expression of the lower dimensional volumes in terms of the geometric data on the manifold.
