Equivariant spectral flow and equivariant η-invariants on manifolds with boundary

In this paper, we study several closely related invariants associated to Dirac operators on odd-dimensional manifolds with boundary with an action of the compact group $H$ of isometries. In particular, the equality between equivariant winding numbers, equivariant spectral flow and equivariant Maslov indices is established. We also study equivariant $\eta$-invariants which play a fundamental role in the equivariant analog of Getzler’s spectral flow formula. As a consequence, we establish a relation between equivariant $\eta$-invariants and equivariant Maslov triple indices in the splitting of manifolds.
