Brownian motion on the hyperbolic plane and Selberg trace formula (Q1284439): Difference between revisions

The paper is devoted to the study of the relation of the heat kernels for the Schrödinger operators with the uniform magnetic fields on the hyperbolic plane and for the Schrödinger operators with Morse potentials on the real axis. Explicit formulas are given [see also \textit{L. Alili} and \textit{J.-C. Gruet}, in: Exponential functionals and principal values related to Brownian motion, 15-33 (1997; Zbl 0911.60069), \textit{A. Debiard} and \textit{B. Gaveau}, Can. J. Math. 39, No. 6, 1281-1404 (1987; Zbl 0647.22004) or \textit{M. Yor}, Adv. Appl. Probab. 24, No. 3, 509-531 (1992; Zbl 0765.60084)] for the heat kernels [see also \textit{A. Terras}, ``Harmonic analysis on symmetric spaces and applications. I'' (1985; Zbl 0574.10029)] and also for the Green functions [see also \textit{C. Grosche}, Ann. Phys. 187, No. 1, 110-134 (1988; Zbl 0652.58042)]. Then the Selberg trace formula [see also \textit{D. A. Hejhal}, ``The Selberg trace formula for \(\text{PSL}(2,\mathbb{R})\). Vol. 2'' (1983; Zbl 0543.10020) or \textit{S. J. Patterson}, Compositio Math. 31, 83-107 (1975; Zbl 0321.30020)] is proved and its relation with the corresponding classical mechanics is discussed.
