Spectral Invariants of Laplacians on Quaternionic Projective Spaces Pn(H) (n 1)
Abstract
This paper presents explicit closed-form formulae for the determinants of the Laplacians on
n-dimensional quaternionic projective spaces Pn(H) (n 1). The explicit calculation of this
spectral invariant associated with Pn(H) is novel in the context of spectral theory of the Laplacian
on Riemannian manifolds. Other spectral properties of the Laplacian on Pn(H) – the
Minakshisundaram-Pleijel coefficients and Minakshisundaram-Pleijel zeta functions are also
explicitly discussed.
