We consider the Schr{\"o}dinger operator H = --$\Delta$ + V (|x|) with radial potential V which may have singularity at 0 and a quadratic decay at infinity. First, we study the structure of positive harmonic functions of H and give their…

We present an invariant definition of the hypoelliptic Laplacian on sub-Riemannian structures with constant growth vector, using the Popp's volume form introduced by Montgomery. This definition generalizes the one of the Laplace-Beltrami…
We prove Poisson upper bounds for the kernel $K$ of the semigroup generated by the Dirichlet-to-Neumann operator if the underlying domain is bounded and has a $C^\infty$-boundary. We also prove Poisson bounds for $K_z$ for all $z$ in the…
We numerically compute the heat kernel on a square lattice torus equipped with the measure corresponding to Liouville quantum gravity (LQG). From the on-diagonal heat kernel we verify that the spectral dimension of LQG is 2. Furthermore,…
In this article we establish the optimal $C^s$ boundary regularity for solutions to nonlocal parabolic equations in divergence form in $C^{1,\alpha}$ domains and prove a higher order boundary Harnack principle in this setting. Our approach…
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 describe three elementary models in three dimensional subelliptic geometry which correspond to the three models of the Riemannian geometry (spheres, Euclidean spaces and Hyperbolic spaces) which are respectively the SU(2), Heisenberg and…
We use a Harnack-type inequality on exit times and spectral bounds to characterize upper bounds of the heat kernel associated with any regular Dirichlet form without killing part, where the scale function may vary with position. We further…

In this article, we establish Gaussian decay for the Box_b-heat kernel on polynomial models in C^2. Our technique attains the exponential decay via a partial Fourier transform. On the transform side, the problem becomes finding quantitative…
We prove that the operator $L_0=-(1+|x|)^\beta(-\Delta)^{\alpha/2}$ with $\alpha\in(0,2)$, $d>\alpha$ and $\beta\ge0$ generates a compact semigroup or resolvent on $L^2(\R^d;(1+|x|)^{-\beta}\,dx)$, if and only if $\beta>\alpha$. When…
We study strong ratio limit properties of the quotients of the heat kernels of subcritical and critical operators which are defined on a noncompact Riemannian manifold.
We use a Riemannnian approximation scheme to define a notion of $\textit{sub-Riemannian Gaussian curvature}$ for a Euclidean $C^{2}$-smooth surface in the Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}$ away from characteristic points, and a notion of…
In this paper, we study the heat kernel associated to the intrinsic sublaplacian on a quaternionic contact manifold considered as a subriemannian manifold. More precisely, we explicitly compute the first two coefficients $c_0$ and $c_1$…
In this paper, we study sharp two-sided heat kernel estimates for a large class of symmetric reflected diffusions with jumps on the closure of an inner uniform domain $D$ in a length metric space. The length metric is the intrinsic metric…
Let $H=-\Delta+V$ be a Schr\"odinger operator on $\mathbb{R}^n$. We show that gradient estimates for the heat kernel of $H$ with upper Gaussian bounds imply polynomial decay for the kernels of certain smooth dyadic spectral operators. The…

We show that, under a natural scaling, the small-time behavior of the logarithmic derivatives of the subelliptic heat kernel on $SU(2)$ converges to their analogues on the Heisenberg group at time 1. Realizing $SU(2)$ as $\mathbb{S}^3$, we…
