A Product Formula for Family Indices and Family Band Width Estimates
Abstract
We extend Gromov's conjecture on the sharp width estimate for Riemannian bands with positive scalar curvature to the family case and prove that it holds for fiber bundles with infinite family A-hat area. The method we employ is based on Dirac operators and the family index theory. Our proof relies on a product formula for index bundles established in this paper.
