Dixmier traces, Wodzicki residues, and determinants on compact Lie groups: the paradigm of the global quantisation

Abstract

\begin{abstract} By following the paradigm of the global quantisation, instead of the analysis under changes of coordinates, in this work we establish a global analysis for the explicit computation of the Dixmier trace and the Wodzicki residue of (elliptic and subelliptic) pseudo-differential operators on compact Lie groups. The regularised determinant for the Dixmier trace is also computed. We obtain these formulae in terms of the global symbol of the corresponding operators. In particular, our approach links the Dixmier trace and Wodzicki residue to the representation theory of the group. Although we start by analysing the case of compact Lie groups, we also compute the Dixmier trace and its regularised determinant on arbitrary closed manifolds $M$, for the class of invariant pseudo-differential operators in terms of their matrix-valued symbols. This analysis includes e.g. the family of positive and elliptic pseudo-differential operators on $M$.
