Heat Kernels and Dirac Operators by Nicole Berline, Ezra Getzler, and Michèle Vergne presents a comprehensive study of the interplay between heat kernels and Dirac operators on compact Riemannian manifolds. The authors provide accessible proofs of the Atiyah-Singer Index Theorem and its generalizations, utilizing an explicit geometric construction of the heat kernel associated with generalized Dirac operators.
