Positive scalar curvature and product formulas for secondary index invariants
We introduce partial secondary invariants associated to complete Riemannian metrics which have uniformly positive scalar curvature (upsc) outside a prescribed subset on a spin manifold. These can be used to distinguish such Riemannian metrics up to concordance relative to the prescribed subset. We exhibit a general external product formula for …
