Abstract

On a spin manifold with conformal cusps, we prove under an invertibility condition at infinity that the eta function of the twisted Dirac operator has at most simple poles and is regular at the origin. For hyperbolic manifolds of finite volume, the eta function of the Dirac operator twisted by any homogeneous vector bundle is shown to be entire.
