The goal of this article is twofold: in a first part, we prove Gaussian estimates for the heat kernel of Schr{\"o}dinger operators delta + V whose potential V is "small at infinity" in an integral sense. In a second part, we prove sharp…
We study the heat kernel asymptotics for the Laplace type differential operators on vector bundles over Riemannian manifolds. In particular this includes the case of the Laplacians acting on differential p-forms. We extend our results…
In this work, we aim to prove algebra properties for generalized Sobolev spaces $W^{s,p} \cap L^\infty$ on a Riemannian manifold, where $W^{s,p}$ is of Bessel-type $W^{s,p}:=(1+L)^{-s/m}(L^p)$ with an operator $L$ generating a heat…

It was proved by H. Bahouri, P. G{\'e}rard and C.-J. Xu in [9] that the Schr{\"o}dinger equation on the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}^d$, involving the sublaplacian, is an example of a totally non-dispersive evolution equation: for this…
Using the technique of labeled operators, compact explicit expressions are given for all traced heat kernel coefficients containing zero, two, four and six covariant derivatives, and for diagonal coefficients with zero, two and four…
We consider certain constant-coefficient differential operators on $\mathbb{R}^d$ with positive-definite symbols. Each such operator $\Lambda$ with symbol $P$ defines a semigroup $e^{-t\Lambda}$ , $t>0$ , admitting a convolution kernel…

Consider the Schr\"odinger operator $ \mathcal L^V=-\Delta+V $ on $\R^d$, where $V:\R^d\to [0,\infty)$ is a nonnegative and locally bounded potential on $\R^d$ so that for all $x\in \R^d$ with $|x|\ge 1$, $c_1g(|x|)\le V(x)\le c_2g(|x|)$…
We consider sub-Riemannian manifolds which are homogeneous spaces equipped with a natural sub-Riemannian structure induced by a transitive action by a Lie group. In such a setting, the corresponding sub-Laplacian is not an elliptic but a…
We characterize functions $V\le 0$ for which the heat kernel of the Schr\"o\-dinger operator $\Delta+V$ is comparable with the Gauss-Weierstrass kernel uniformly in space and time. In dimension $4$ and higher the condition turns out to be…
