In this interesting paper, the authors gave a new proof of the higher Atiyah-Patodi-Singer index theorem on Galois-coverings. This new proof is based in a crucial way on the excision isomorphism in \(K\)-theory and on the pairing between relative \(K\)-theory and relative cyclic cohomology; the \(b\)-calculus of Melrose and his \(b\)-trace formula also play an important role.
