We present a simple observation showing that the heat kernel on a locally finite graph behaves for short times $t$ roughly like $t^d$, where $d$ is the combinatorial distance. This is very different from the classical Varadhan type behavior…

We study the short time heat content asymptotics for spectral boundary conditions. The heat content coefficients are shown to be non-local and some preliminary results concerning the structure of the first few terms are given.
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…
The method which allows for asymptotic expansion of the one-loop effective action W=ln det A is formulated. The positively defined elliptic operator A= U + M^2 depends on the external classical fields taking values in the Lie algebra of the…
We derive a detailed asymptotic expansion of the heat trace for the Laplace-Beltrami operator on functions on manifolds with conic singularities, using the Singular Asymptotics Lemma of Jochen Bruening and Robert T. Seeley [BS]. In the…
Let M be a complete Riemannian manifold with a free cocompact Z^k-action. Let k(t,x,y) be the heat kernel on M. We compute the asymptotics of k(t,x,y) in the limit in which t goes to infinity and d(x,y) is comparable to sqrt{t}. We show…
