报告摘要:The eta-invariant introduced by Atiyah-Patodi-Singer has played important roles in geometry, topology, number theory and mathematical physics. In this talk, we describe two simple applications. One on Rokhlin congruences (dating back to 1994). The other joint with Zizhou Tang, solving a problem of Berard-Bergery and Besse dating back to 1970s.
