The regularity of the $η$ function for the Shubin calculus

We prove the regularity of the $η$ function for classical pseudodifferential operators with Shubin symbols. We recall the construction of complex powers and of the Wodzicki and Kontsevich-Vishik functionals for classical symbols on $\mathbb{R}^{n}$ with these symbols. We then define the $ζ$ and $η$ functions associated to suitable elliptic operators. We compute the $K_{0}$ group of the algebra of zero-order operators and use this knowledge to show that the Wodzicki trace of the idempotents in the algebra vanishes. From this, it follows that the $η$ function is regular at 0 for any self-adjoint elliptic operator of positive order.
