Ruelle zeta function at zero for surfaces of variable curvature

speaker: Maciej Zworski (University of California at Berkeley)

abstract: For surfaces of constant negative curvature the Selberg trace formula shows that the order of vanishing of the Ruelle zeta function at 0 is given by the absolute value of the Euler characteristic of the surface. Using simple microlocal arguments we prove that this remains true for any negatively curved sufficiently smooth surface. Joint work with S. Dyatlov.
