We study the index of the APS boundary value problem for a strongly Callias-type operator $D$ on a complete even dimensional Riemannian manifold $M$ (the odd dimensional case was considered in our previous paper arXiv:1706.06737). We use this index to define the relative $eta$-invariant $eta(A_1,A_0)$ of two strongly Callias-type operators, which are equal outside of a compact set. Even though in our situation the $eta$-invariants of $A_1$ and $A_0$ are not defined, the relative $eta$-invariant behaves as if it were the difference $eta(A_1)-eta(A_0)$. We also define the spectral flow of a family of such operators and use it compute the variation of the relative $eta$-invariant.

We study the index of the APS boundary value problem for a strongly Callias-type operator D on a complete Riemannian manifold $M$. We show that this index is equal to an index on a simpler manifold whose boundary is a disjoint union of two complete m anifolds $N_0$ and $N_1$. If the dimension of $M$ is odd we show that the latter index depends only on the restrictions $A_0$ and $A_1$ of $D$ to $N_0$ and $N_1$ and thus is an invariant of the boundary. We use this invariant to define the relative eta-invariant $eta(A_1,A_0)$. We show that even though in our situation the eta-invariants of $A_1$ and $A_0$ are not defined, the relative eta-invariant behaves as if it was the difference $eta(A_1)-eta(A_0)$.

We consider a hyperbolic Dirac-type operator with growing potential on a a spatially non-compact globally hyperbolic manifold. We show that the Atiyah-Patodi-Singer boundary value problem for such operator is Fredholm and obtain a formula for this in dex in terms of the local integrals and the relative eta-invariant introduced by Braverman and Shi. This extends recent results of Bar and Strohmaier, who studied the index of a hyperbolic Dirac operator on a spatially compact globally hyperbolic manifold.
We consider a generalized APS boundary problem for a G-invariant Dirac-type operator, which is not of product type near the boundary. We establish a delocalized version (a so-called Kirillov formula) of the equivariant index theorem for this operator . We obtain more explicit formulas for different geometric Dirac-type operators. In particular, we get a formula for the equivariant signature of a local system over a manifold with boundary. In case of a trivial local system, our formula can be viewed as a new way to compute the infinitesimal equivariant eta-invariant of S. Goette. We explicitly compute all the terms in this formula, which involve the equivariant Hirzebruch L-form and its transgression, for four-dimensional SKR manifolds, a class including many Kaehler conformally Einstein manifolds, in the case where the boundary is given as the zero level set of a certain Killing potential. In the case of SKR metrics which are local Kaehler products, these terms are zero, and we obtain a vanishing result for the infinitesimal equivariant eta invariant.
We consider the Dirac operator on asymptotically static Lorentzian manifolds with an odd-dimensional compact Cauchy surface. We prove that if Atiyah-Patodi-Singer boundary conditions are imposed at infinite times then the Dirac operator is Fredholm. This generalizes a theorem due to Bar-Strohmaier in the case of finite times, and we also show that the corresponding index formula extends to the infinite setting. Furthermore, we demonstrate the existence of a Fredholm inverse which is at the same time a Feynman parametrix in the sense of Duistermaat-Hormander. The proof combines methods from time-dependent scattering theory with a variant of Egorovs theorem for pseudo-differential hyperbolic systems.

We construct a regularized index of a generalized Dirac operator on a complete Riemannian manifold endowed with a proper action of a unimodular Lie group. We show that the index is preserved by a certain class of non-compact cobordisms and prove a gl uing formula for the regularized index. The results of this paper generalize our previous construction of index for compact group action and the recent paper of Mathai and Hochs who studied the case of a Hamiltonian action on a symplectic manifold. As an application of the cobordism invariance of the index we give an affirmative answer to a question of Mathai and Hochs about the independence of the Mathai-Hochs quantization of the metric, connection and other choices.
