Abstract: In this note we explain the relationship of the Wodzicki residue of (certain powers of) an elliptic differential operator P acting on sections of a complex vector bundle E over a closed compact manifold M and the asymptotic expansion of the trace of the corresponding heat operator e−tP. In the special case of a generalized laplacian riangle and mdim;M>2, we thereby obtain a simple proof of the fact already shown in [KW], that the Wodzicki residue res(riangle−nover2+1) is the integral of the second coefficient of the heat kernel expansion of riangle up to a proportional factor.
