Abstract
We introduce a sharp trace Tr#
and a sharp determinant Det#(l−z
) for an algebra of operators
acting on functions of bounded variation on the real line. We show that the zeroes of the sharp determinant describe the discrete spectrum of
. The relationship with weighted zeta functions of interval maps and Milnor-Thurston kneading determinants is explained. This yields a result on convergence of the discrete spectrum of approximated operators.
