The proof is based on a Poisson Summation Formula which comes from the Hadamard factorization theorem in the open upper complex plane. We take advantage of the singularity of regularized wave trace to give the pole/resonance counting function over the principal branch of logarithmic plane a lower bound. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1105.4972v1
