This paper continues the articles [\textit{K. Kirsten} et al., J. Spectr. Theory 10, No. 3, 1007--1051 (2020; Zbl 0759.58043); ``The BFK type gluing formula of zeta-determinants for the Robin Boundary condition, Preprint, \url{arXiv:2306.17572}]. In the latter work, the authors established a gluing formula for the zeta-determinants of Laplacians on compact Riemannian manifolds under Robin boundary conditions, with the generalized Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator \(R_S(\lambda)\) playing a central role. This formula involves a constant whose explicit computation was left open.\N\NIn this paper, the authors derive explicit expressions for this constant term in the asymptotic expansion of \(\ln \text{Det} , R_S(\lambda)\). The analysis focuses on the case where the cutting hypersurface is a closed 2-dimensional submanifold of a closed Riemannian manifold. Additionally, they compute coefficients for the heat trace asymptotics of \(R_S(\lambda)\) and evaluate the zeta function at zero, employing conformal rescaling of the metric.\N\NCombining techniques from spectral geometry and pseudo-differential operator theory, the paper provides explicit, curvature-dependent expressions using the homogeneous symbol of \(R_S(\lambda)\) and boundary normal coordinates. These results contribute to the understanding of spectral invariants associated with boundary operators and their dependence on the geometry of both the manifold and the hypersurface.
