L2-index formula for proper cocompact group actions

Indices are analytical invariants to some elliptic operators and an index formula provides a way to interpret the analysis quantity using the topological invariants. The thesis computes the L2-index of a properly supported elliptic pseudo-differential operator which acts on a complete Riemannian man...
