The heat kernel expansion is a very convenient tool for studying one-loop divergences, anomalies and various asymptotics of the effective action. The aim of this report is to collect useful information on the heat kernel coefficients…

We prove a perturbation result for positive semigroups, thereby extending a heat kernel estimate by Barlow, Grigor'yan and Kumagai for Dirichlet forms (\cite{bgk2009}) to positive semigroups. This also leads to a generalization of…

We consider a self-adjoint non-negative operator $H$ in a Hilbert space $\mathsf{L}^2(X,{\rm d}\mu)$. We assume that the semigroup $(\mathrm{e}^{-t H})_{t>0}$ is defined by an integral kernel, $p$, which allows an estimate of the form…

Let $m\in\mathbb N$, $P(D):=\sum_{|\alpha|=2m}(-1)^m a_\alpha D^\alpha$ be a $2m$-order homogeneous elliptic operator with real constant coefficients on $\mathbb{R}^n$, and $V$ a measurable function on $\mathbb{R}^n$. In this article, the…

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 obtain sharp two-sided heat kernel estimates on spaces with varying dimension, in which two spaces of general dimension are connected at one point. On these spaces, if the dimensions of the two constituent parts are different, the volume…

We investigate heat kernel estimates of the form $p_{t}(x, x)\geq c_{x}t^{-\alpha},$ for large enough $t,$ where $\alpha$ and $c_{x}$ are positive reals and $c_{x}$ may depend on $x,$ on manifolds having at least one end.

We consider singular integral operators and maximal singular integral operators with rough kernels on homogeneous groups. We prove certain estimates for the operators that imply $L^p$ boundedness of them by an extrapolation argument under a…
