Abstract: We give a topological interpretation of the space of L2-harmonic forms on Manifold with flat ends. It is an answer to an old question of J. Dodziuk. We also give a Chern-Gauss-Bonnet formula for the L2-Euler characteristic of some of these Manifolds. These results are applications of general theorems on complete Riemannian Manifold whose Gauss-Bonnet operator is non-parabolic at infinity.


This paper gives a topological description of the space of \(L^2\)-harmonic forms on manifolds with flat ends. For some of these manifolds a formula for the \(L^2\)-Euler characteristic is given. These results are consequences of general theorems on complete Riemannian manifolds where the Gauss-Bonnet operator is non-parabolic at infinity.
