Robert Seeley will carry out research in certain                           differential operators with strong singularities. These arise                   naturally in a variety of geometric and physical problems. A                    geometric example is provided by the manifolds with conic                       singularities. The classical Dirac monopole and conformally                     invariant field theories are sources of physical examples.                           The research will involve index problems for first order                   singular operators. Seeley has recently been involved in                        developing a technique for computing the index of such operators.               He will continue to develop this technique and seek extensions to               the case of iterated cones where the cross-section has a conic                  singularity. He will also consider families of regular operators                degenerating to a nonsingular limit.
