the question is can you cast defensively when you are aware that you have an invisible opponent that MAY threaten you but you don't know where he is

you have an opponent with greater invisibility that goes in your formation and attack someone next to you will you be able to cast defensively from an unseen enemy or you must be aware of which square he is in

I can see arguments for both so I ask peoples opinion

BTW what happen if you want to go thought a square of someone invisible?

RAW, you don't need to be able to see an opponent to cast defensively. Heck, you can cast defensively when not threatened. Or when blinded so YOU can't see anything. In any case none of these castings provoke AoO. It's not that you're avoiding your enemy, so much as you're being careful of HOW you cast the spell so as not to leave yourself open.
