The trace of the heat kernel on a compact hyperbolic 3-orbifold
The trace of the heat kernel on a compact hyperbolic 3-orbifold
The heat coefficients related to the Laplace-Beltrami operator defined on the hyperbolic compact manifold $H^3/\Ga$ are evaluated in the case in which the discrete group $\Ga$ contains elliptic and hyperbolic elements. It is shown that while hyperbolic elements give only exponentially vanishing corrections to the trace of the heat kernel, …
