The Brylinski beta function of a double layer

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: An analogue of Brylinski's knot beta function is defined for a compactly supported (Schwartz) distribution T on d-dimensional Euclidean space. This is a holomorphic function on a right half-plane. If T is a (uniform) double-layer on a compact smooth hypersurface, then the beta function has an analytic continuation to the complex plane as a meromorphic function, and the residues are integrals of invariants of the second fundamental form. The first few residues are computed when d=2 and d=3.
