The tunneling amplitudes between degenerate absolute vacua or
relative and absolute classical minima in quantum systems are proportional to an exponentially decaying factor involving the 
classical action of instantons or bounces. The factor of proportionality is the determinant of a differential operator
of Schrodinger type that usually is dealt with ā la Gelfand/Yaglom form. My plan is to show how the Ray-Singer definition of elliptic operator determinants from the derivative of their spectral zeta function can help in the determination
of the tunnel determinants. In particular this technique is very useful in dealing with the worrysome zero modes."

 Because there is still a great lapse of time to go until the dates of the workshop the Title and the Abstract proposed above 
must be understood as a zero order approximation."
