Let $G$ be a simple, finite graph and let $p_t(x,y)$ denote the heat kernel on $G$. The purpose of this short note is to show that for $t \rightarrow 0^+$ $$ p_t(x,y) = \# \left\{\mbox{paths of…

The trace of the heat kernel is expanded in a basis of nonlocal curvature invariants of $N$th order. The coefficients of this expansion (the nonlocal form factors) are calculated to third order in the curvature inclusive. The early-time and…

Following the classical result of long-time asymptotic convergence towards the Gaussian kernel that holds true for integrable solutions of the Heat Equation posed in the Euclidean Space $\mathbb{R}^n$, we examine the question of long-time…

We show that the small-time asymptotics of the sub-Riemannian heat kernel, its derivatives, and its logarithmic derivatives can be localized, allowing them to be studied even on incomplete manifolds, under essentially optimal conditions on…
