Let $\\Delta$ be the Friedrichs extension of the Laplace-Beltrami operator on $X.$ There are two natural ways to define geodesics passing through the boundary: as ``diffractive'' geodesics which may emanate from $\\partial X$ in any direction, or as ``geometric'' geodesics which must enter and leave $\\partial X$ at points which are connected by a geodesic of length $\\pi$ in $\\partial X.$ Let $\\DIFF=\\{0\\} \\cup \\{\\pm lengths of closed diffractive geodesics\\}$ and $\\GEOM=\\{0\\} \\cup \\{\\pm lengths of closed geometric geodesics\\}.$ We show that $$ \\Tr \\cos t \\sqrt\\Delta \\in C^{-n-0}(\\RR) \\cap C^{-1-0}(\\RR\\backslash \\GEOM) \\cap C^\\infty(\\RR\\backslash \\DIFF).$$ This generalizes a classical result of Chazarain and Duistermaat-Guillemin on boundaryless manifolds, which in turn follows from Poisson summation in the case $X=S^1.$", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2002-09-24T17:06:41.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "58J47", "58J50", "35L05" ], "keywords": [ "conic manifolds", "poisson relation", "compact riemannian manifold", "conic degeneracy", "friedrichs extension" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2002math......2264W" } } }
