Analysis on fibred cusp spaces

Abstract: We give a survey of a number of analytic and geometric results on `fibred cusp spaces'. These results cover topics in spectral geometry, in particular analytic torsion and index theory, and boundary value problems. The underlying tools include a careful microlocal analysis of the resolvent and the heat kernel. We include an exposition of the geometric and analytic foundations and sketch the ideas of the proofs of the main theorems.
