A survey of Quillen metrics

[ 講演概要 ]
In this lecture, I will survey basic results
on Quillen metrics.

Indeed let $X$ be a complex K\\"ahler manifold, and let $E$ be a
holomorphic Hermitian vector bundle on $X$. Let $\\lambda$ be the complex line
which is the determinant of the cohomology of $E$. The Quillen metric
is a metric on the line $\\lambda$, which one obtains using a spectral
invariant of the Hodge Laplacian, the Ray-Singer analytic torsion.

The Quillen metrics have a number of remarkable properties. Among them
the curvature theorem says that when one considers a family of such
$X$, the curvature of the holomorphic Hermitian connection on
$\\lambda$ is given by a formula of Riemann-Roch-Grothendieck type.

I will explain some of the ideas which go into the proof of these
properties, which includes Quillen's superconnections.
