In [1960] Gel’fand posed the general problem of investigating the relationship between topological and analytical invariants of elliptic differential operators. In particular he suggested that it should be possible to express the index of an elliptic operator in topological terms. This problem has been taken up by Agranovič [1962a; 1962b], Dynin [1962b; 1961a; 1961b], Seeley [1961; 1963] and Vol’pert [1962] who have solved it in special cases. The purpose of this paper is to give a general formula for the index of an elliptic operator on any compact oriented differentiable manifold. As a special case of this formula we get the Hirzebruch–Riemann–Roch theorem for any compact complex manifold. This was previously known only for projective algebraic manifolds. Some other special cases, of interest in differential topology, are discussed.

This is the first of a series of papers which will be devoted to a study of the index of elliptic operators on compact manifolds. The main result was announced in [Atiyah and Singer 1963] and, for manifolds with boundary, in [Atiyah 1964]. The long delay between these announcements and the present paper is due to several factors. On the one hand, a fairly detailed exposition has already appeared in [Palais 1965]. On the other hand, our original proof, reproduced with minor modifications in [Palais 1965], had a number of drawbacks. In the first place the use of cobordism, and the computational checking associated with this, were not very enlightening. More seriously, however, the method of proof did not lend itself to certain natural generalizations of the problem where appropriate cobordism groups were not known. The reader who is familiar with the Riemann–Roch theorem will realize that our original proof of the index theorem was modelled closely on Hirzebruch’s proof of the Riemann–Roch theorem. Naturally enough we were led to look for a proof modelled more on that of Grothendieck. While we have not completely succeeded in this aim, we have at least found a proof which is much more natural, does not use cobordism, and lends itself therefore to generalization. In spirit, at least, it has much in common with Grothendieck’s approach.

In [1968a], paper I of this series, the index of an elliptic operator was computed in terms of \( K \) -theory. In this paper, we carry out what is essentially a routine exercise by passing from \( K \) -theory to cohomology. In this way, we end up with the explicit cohomological formula for the index announced in [1963].
In [1968a] we also considered elliptic operators (or complexes) compatible with a compact group \( G \) of transformations. The index in this case is a character of \( G \) , and the main theorem of [1968a] gave a construction for this in \( KG \) -theory. In [1968b], paper II of this series, the value of this index-character at an element \( g\in G \) was expressed as the index of a new “virtual operator” on the fixed point set of \( g \) . This was referred to as a Lefschetz fixed-point formula. By combining this formula with the cohomological formula for the index, we obtain finally an explicit cohomological formula for the index-character. We shall describe this formula in detail for a number of important operators. In particular we draw attention to the “integrality theorems” obtained in this way for actions of finite groups on manifolds. Most of these do not depend on the analysis in [1968a], but are a consequence of combining the purely topological results of [1968b] and the present paper.

The preceding papers of this series dealt with the index of elliptic pseudo-differential operators and families of such operators. In all this, our operators (and vector bundles) were over the complex numbers. In this paper we want to refine the preceding theory to deal with real operators, for example differential operators with real coefficients.

If \( A \) is a positive self-adjoint elliptic (linear) differential operator on a compact manifold then it has a discrete spectrum consisting of positive eigenvaues \( \{\lambda\} \) . In analogy with the classical Riemann zeta-function one can define, for \( \operatorname{Re}(s) \) large,
\[ \zeta_A(s) = \operatorname{Tr} A^{-s} = \sum\lambda^{-s}. \]

The main purpose of this paper is to present a generalization of Hirzebruch’s signature theorem for the case of manifolds with boundary. Our result is in the framework of Riemannian geometry and can be viewed as analogous to the Gauss–Bonnet theorem for manifolds with boundary, although there is a very significant difference between the two cases which is, in a sense, the central topic of the paper.

In Parts I and II of this paper [1975a; 1975b] we studied the ‘spectral asymmetry’ of certain elliptic self-adjoint operators arising in Riemannian geometry. More precisely, for any elliptic self-adjoint operator \( A \) on a compact manifold we defined
\[ \eta_A(s) = \sum_{\lambda\neq 0}\operatorname{sign} \lambda \,|\lambda|^{-s}, \]
where \( \lambda \) runs over the eigenvalues of \( A \) . For the particular operators of interest in Riemannian geometry we showed that \( \eta_A(s) \) had an analytic continuation to the whole complex \( s \) -plane, with simple poles, and that \( s = 0 \) was not a pole. The real number \( \eta_A(0) \) , which is a measure of ‘spectral asymmetry’, was studied in detail particularly in relation to representations of the fundamental group.

The purpose of this paper is to prove a conjecture of Hirzebruch [1973] which gives a topological meaning to certain values of \( L \) -functions arising in totally real number fields. This conjecture was based on the very detailed investigation made by Hirzebruch for the case of real quadratic fields, and hinged on the fine structure of the cusp singularities of the Hilbert modular surfaces. It may therefore be helpful to recall the motivation and background of the conjecture.

This note is a supplement to our paper [Atiyah, Donnelly and Singer 1983]. In [1973] Hirzebruch conjectured that the values at zero of the Shimizu \( L \) -functions are realized as the signature defects of cusps associated to Hilbert modular varieties. In [Atiyah, Donnelly and Singer 1983] we claimed to have established the Hirzebruch conjecture but, as was pointed out to us by W. Müller, we only dealt with the “split” case. In fact our method of proof extends with essentially no change to the non-split case as we shall now explain.
