This book develops a C*-algebraic approach to the notion of principal symbol on Heisenberg groups and, using the fact that contact manifolds are locally modeled by Heisenberg groups, on compact contact manifolds. Applying abstract theorems due to Lord, Sukochev, Zanin and McDonald, a principal symbol on the Heisenberg group is introduced as a homomorphism of C*-algebras. This leads to a version of Connes’ trace theorem for Heisenberg groups, followed by a proof of the equivariant behavior of the principal symbol under Heisenberg diffeomorphisms. Using this equivariance and the authors’ globalization theorem, techniques are developed which enable further extensions to arbitrary stratified Lie groups and, as a consequence, the notion of a principal symbol on compact contact manifolds is described via a patching process. Finally, the Connes trace formula on compact contact sub-Riemannian manifolds is established and a spectrally correct version of the sub-Riemannian volume is defined (different from Popp''s measure).

The book is aimed at graduate students and researchers working in spectral theory, Heisenberg analysis, operator algebras and noncommutative geometry.

This text is the first complete study and monograph dedicated to singular traces. For mathematical readers the text offers, due to Nigel Kalton''s contribution, a complete theory of traces on symmetrically normed ideals of compact operators. For mathematical physicists and other users of Connes'' noncommutative geometry the text offers a complete reference to Dixmier traces and the deeper mathematical features of singular traces. An application section explores the consequences of these features, which previously were not discussed in general texts on noncommutative geometry.

This book is the second edition of the first complete study and monograph dedicated to singular traces. The text offers, due to the contributions of Albrecht Pietsch and Nigel Kalton, a complete theory of traces and their spectral properties on ideals of compact operators on a separable Hilbert space. The second edition has been updated on the fundamental approach provided by Albrecht Pietsch. For mathematical physicists and other users of Connes’ noncommutative geometry the text offers a complete reference to traces on weak trace class operators, including Dixmier traces and associated formulas involving residues of spectral zeta functions and asymptotics of partition functions.

This volume introduces noncommutative integration theory on semifinite von Neumann algebras and the theory of singular traces for symmetric operator spaces. Deeper aspects of the association between measurability, poles and residues of spectral zeta functions, and asymptotics of heat traces are studied. Applications in Connes’ noncommutative geometry that are detailed include integration of quantum differentials, measures on fractals, and Connes’ character formula concerning the Hochschild class of the Chern character.
