Let D denote a Dirac operator on a compact odd-dimensional manifold M with boundary Y . The elliptic boundary value problem D P is the operator D with domain determined by a boundary condition P from the smooth self-adjoint Grassmannian Gr * ∞ (D). It has a welldefined ζ-determinant (see [Wo5]). The determinant line bundle over Gr * ∞ (D) has a natural trivialization in which the canonical Quillen determinant section becomes a function, denoted by det C D P , equal to the Fredholm determinant of a naturally associated operator on the space of boundary sections. In this paper we show that the ζ-regularized determinant det ζ D P is equal to det C D P modulo a natural multiplicative constant.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
