Calculation of the determinant in the Wheeler-De Witt equation

The Riemann-zeta function regularization procedure has been studied intensively as a good method in the computation of the determinant for pseudo-diferential operator. In this paper we propose a different approach for the computation of the determinant base on the Wheeler-De Witt equation.

Regularization of Automorphic Functions of Manifolds with Special Kähler Geometry

In this paper we find automorphic functions of coset manifolds with special Kähler geometry. We use ζ-functions to regularize an infinite product over integers which belong to a duality-invariant lattice, this product is known to produce duality-invariant functions. In turn these functions correspond to Eisenstein series which can be understood as string theory amplitudes that receive contributions from BPS states. The Ansatz is constructed using the coset manifold SU(1,n)\over SU(n) \times U(1) as an example but it can be generalized. Automorphic functions play an important role in the calculation of threshold corrections to gauge coupling and other stringy phenomena. We also find some connections between the theory of Abelian varieties and moduli spaces of Calabi-Yau manifolds
