Let $(M^n, g)$ be a complete Riemannian manifold with $Rc\geq -Kg$, $H(x, y, t)$ is the heat kernel on $M^n$, and $H= (4\pi t)^{-\frac{n}{2}}e^{-f}$. Nash entropy is defined as $N(H, t)= \int_{M^n} (fH) d\mu(x)- \frac{n}{2}$. We studied the…
We consider a complete noncompact smooth Riemannian manifold $M$ with a weighted measure and the associated drifting Laplacian. We demonstrate that whenever the $q$-Bakry-\'Emery Ricci tensor on $M$ is bounded below, then we can obtain an…

This is first of series papers on new two-side Gaussian bounds for the heat kernel $H(x,y,t)$ on a complete manifold $(M,g)$. In this paper, on a complete manifold $M$ with $Ric(M)\geq 0$, we obtain new two-side Gaussian bounds for the heat…
In this paper, we study the asymptotic behavior of the heat kernel with respect to the Witten Laplacian. We introduce the localization and the scaling technique in semi-classical analysis, and study the semi-classical asymptotic behavior of…
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…
We consider rough metrics on smooth manifolds and corresponding Laplacians induced by such metrics. We demonstrate that globally continuous heat kernels exist and are H\"older continuous locally in space and time. This is done via local…

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…
Let $(X,d)$ be a proper ultrametric space. Given a measure $m$ on $X$ and a function $B \mapsto C(B)$ defined on the collection of all non-singleton balls $B$ of $X$, we consider the associated hierarchical Laplacian $L=L_{C}\,$. The…
This paper studies the asymptotic behavior of the integral kernel of the Dunkl transform, the so-called Dunkl kernel, when one of its arguments is fixed and the other tends to infinity either within a Weyl chamber of the associated…

For Riemannian symmetric spaces $X=G/K$ of noncompact type, we show that for all left $K$-invariant $f\in L^1(X)$, the functions $\|h_t\|_{L^p(X)}^{-1}(f\ast h_t-M_p(f)h_t)$ (with $h_t$ being the heat kernel of $X$) converges to zero in…
