In this work, we establish the uniform heat kernel asymptotics as well as sharp bounds for its derivatives on the free step-two Carnot group with $3$ generators. As a by-product, on this highly non-trivial toy model, we completely solve the…

We study the relationship between the geometry and the Laplace spectrum of a Riemannian orbifold O via its heat kernel; as in the manifold case, the time-zero asymptotic expansion of the heat kernel furnishes geometric information about O.…

We survey the recent progress in the study of heat kernels for a class of non-symmetric non-local operators. We focus on the existence and sharp two-sided estimates of the heat kernels and their connection to jump diffusions.

We compute the coefficients in asymptotics of regularized traces and associated trace (spectral) distributions for Schrodinger operators, with short and long range potentials. A kernel expansion for the Schrodinger semigroup is derived, and…

Let $G$ be a compact connected Lie group equipped with a bi-invariant metric. We calculate the asymptotic expansion of the heat kernel of the laplacian on $G$ and the heat trace using Lie algebra methods. The Duflo isomorphism plays a key…

In this paper we study the small time asymptotics for the heat kernel on a sub-Riemannian manifold, using a perturbative approach. We then explicitly compute, in the case of a 3D contact structure, the first two coefficients of the small…

In this paper, the asymptotic behavior of a semilinear heat equation with long time memory and non-local diffusion is analyzed in the usual set-up for dynamical systems generated by differential equations with delay terms. This approach is…

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…

Asymptotic expansions of heat kernels and heat traces of Schr\"odinger operators on non-compact spaces are rarely explored, and even for cases as simple as $\mathbb{C}^n$ with (quasi-homogeneous) polynomials potentials, it's already very…

Asymptotic expansions were first introduced by Henri Poincare in 1886. This paper describes their application to the semi-classical evaluation of amplitudes in quantum field theory with boundaries. By using zeta-function regularization, the…
