Families of Conformally Covariant Differential Operators, Q-Curvature and Holography

The central object of the book is a subtle scalar Riemannian curvature quantity in even dimensions which is called Branson's Q-curvature. It was introduced by Thomas Branson about 15 years ago in connection with an attempt to systematise the structure of conformal anomalies of determinants of c...
