Abstract: We consider a Dirac-type operator DP on a vector bundle V over a compact Riemannian manifold (M,g) with a nonempty boundary. The operator DP is specified by a boundary condition P(u|pM)=0 where P is a projector which may be a non-local, i.e. a pseudodifferential operator. We assume the existence of a chirality operator which decomposes L2(M,V) into two orthogonal subspaces X+oplusX. Under certain conditions, the operator DP restricted to X+ and X defines a pair of Fredholm operators which maps X+oX and XoX+ correspondingly, giving rise to a superstructure on V. In this paper we consider the questions of determining the index of DP and the reconstruction of (M,g),V and DP from the boundary data on pM. The data used is either the Cauchy data, i.e. the restrictions to pMimesR+ of the solutions to the hyperbolic Dirac equation, or the boundary spectral data, i.e. the set of the eigenvalues and the boundary values of the eigenfunctions of DP. We obtain formulae for the index and prove uniqueness results for the inverse boundary value problems. We apply the obtained results to the classical Dirac-type operator in MimesC4, MsubsetR3.
