The Dirac Spectrum (Paperback, 2009 ed.)

This overview is based on the talk [101] given at the mini-workshop 0648c "Dirac operators in di?erential and non-commutative geometry", Mat- matisches Forschungsinstitut Oberwolfach. Intended for non-specialists, it explores the spectrum of the fundamental Dirac operator on Riemannian spin manifolds, including recent research and open problems. No background in spin geometry is required; nevertheless the reader is assumed to be fam- iar with basic notions of di?erential geometry (manifolds, Lie groups, vector and principal bundles, coverings, connections, and di?erential forms). The surveys [41, 132], which themselves provide a very good insight into closed manifolds, served as the starting point. We hope the content of this book re?ects the wide range of ?ndings on and sometimes amazing applications of the spin side of spectral theory and will attract a new audience to the topic. vii Acknowledgements TheauthorwouldliketothanktheMathematischesForschungsinstitutOb- wolfach for its friendly hospitality and stimulating atmosphere, as well as the organizers and all those who participated in the mini-workshop. This s- vey would not have been possible without the encouragement and advice of Christian B.. ar and Oussama Hijazi as well as the support of the German Research Foundation's Sonderforschungsbereich 647 "Raum, Zeit, Materie. Analytische und geometrische Strukturen" (Collaborative Research Center 647/Space, Time and Matter. Analytical and Geometric Structures). We would also like to thank Bernd Ammann and Nadine Grosse for their enlig- eningdiscussions and usefulreferences.
