The trace of the heat kernel and the one-loop effective action for the generic differential operator are calculated to third order in the background curvatures: the Riemann curvature, the commutator curvature and the potential. In the case…

The aim of this paper is to construct (explicit) heat kernels for some hybrid evolution equations which arise in physics, conformal geometry and subelliptic PDEs. Hybrid means that the relevant partial differential operator appears in the…

We derive an exact closed-form representation for the Euclidean thermal Green function of the two-dimensional (2D) free massless scalar field in coordinate space. This can be interpreted as the real part of a complex analytic function of a…

We prove that the diagonal of the transition probabilities for the d-dimensional Bessel processes on (0, 1], reflected at 1, which we denote by $p_R^N(t, r,r)$, is an increasing function of r for d>2 and that this is false for d=2.

The paper is devoted to a local heat kernel, which is a special part of the standard heat kernel. Locality means that all considerations are produced in an open convex set of a smooth Riemannian manifold. We study such properties and…

We investigate and solve a special class of integrals involving associated Legendre functions, which can be regarded as generalized Mehler-Fock transformations. Some of the integrals appear naturally when dealing with the heat or resolvent…
