Abstract

For any compact Riemannian manifold (M,g)(M,g) and its heat kernel embedding map psitpsi_t from M into l2l^2 constructed in [BBG], we study the higher derivatives of psitpsi_t with respect to an orthonormal basis at xx on MM. As the heat flow time tt goes to 0, it turns out the limiting angles between these derivative vectors are universal constants independent on gg, xx and the choice of orthonormal basis. Geometric applications to the mean curvature and the Riemannian curvature are given. Some algebraic structures of the infinite jet space of psitpsi_t are explored.
