We use heat kernels or eigenfunctions of the Laplacian to construct local coordinates on large classes of Euclidean domains and Riemannian manifolds (not necessarily smooth, e.g. with $\mathcal{C}^\alpha$ metric). These coordinates are…
We consider sub-Laplacians in open bounded sets in a homogeneous Carnot group and study their spectral properties. We prove that these operators have a pure point spectrum, and prove the existence of the spectral gap. In addition, we give…
We consider the heat equation defined by a generalized measure theoretic Laplacian on $[0,1]$. This equation describes heat diffusion in a bar such that the mass distribution of the bar is given by a non-atomic Borel probabiliy measure…
Heat-kernel expansion and zeta function regularisation are discussed for Laplace type operators with discrete spectrum in non compact domains. Since a general theory is lacking, the heat-kernel expansion is investigated by means of several…

We consider the asymptotic expansion of the heat kernel of a generalized Laplacian for $t\to 0^+$ and characterize the coefficients $a_k$ of this expansion by a natural intertwining property. In particular we will give a closed formula for…

We point out that using the heat kernel on a cone to compute the first quantum correction to the entropy of Rindler space does not yield the correct temperature dependence. In order to obtain the physics at arbitrary temperature one must…
In the uniformly discrete case of virtual persistence diagram groups $K(X,A)$, we construct a translation-invariant heat semigroup. The kernels are supported on a countable subgroup $H$, and the restriction to $H$ has Fourier exponent…
We derive large time upper bounds for heat kernels on vector bundles of differential forms on a class of non-compact Riemannian manifolds under certain curvature conditions.
The heat kernel expansion on even-dimensional hyperbolic spaces is asymptotic at both short and long times, with interestingly different Borel properties for these short and long time expansions. Resummations in terms of incomplete gamma…
We prove that on an asymptotically Euclidean boundary groupoid, the heat kernel of the Laplacian is a smooth groupoid pseudo-differential operator.
The heat kernel expansion for a general non--minimal operator on the spaces $C^\infty (\Lambda^k)$ and $C^\infty (\Lambda^{p,q})$ is studied. The coefficients of the heat kernel asymptotics for this operator are expressed in terms of the…
In this thesis we deal with spectral invariants for polygons and closed orbisurfaces of constant Gaussian curvature. In each case our method is to study the heat kernel and the asymptotic expansion of the heat trace. First, we investigate…
In this paper we continue the analysis of spectral problems in the setting of complete manifolds with fibred boundary metrics, also referred to as $\phi$-metrics, as initiated in our previous work. We consider the Hodge Laplacian for a…
