Abstract

The dissertation is devoted to some aspects of spectral perturbation theory in the context of finite Von Neumann algebras. The central results are analogs of the Birman-Schwinger principle and the Birman-Krein formula for the [xi]-index, a spectral parameter independent counterpart of Krein's spectral shift function. The proofs of the main results are based on diverse properties of the operator logarithm and argument averaged with respect to a normal tracial state that are derived in this work. In addition, formula representations for the [xi]-index and the [xi]- function are obtained and the concept of the [xi]-index is related to that of the spectrum distribution function for some random operators.
