We obtain Sobolev inequalities for the Schrodinger operator -\Delta-V, where V has critical behaviour V(x)=((N-2)/2)^2|x|^{-2} near the origin. We apply these inequalities to obtain pointwise estimates on the associated heat kernel,…

We prove a conjecture of Bernstein that the superconvexity of the heat kernel on hyperbolic space holds in all dimensions and, hence, there is an analog of Huisken's monotonicity formula for mean curvature flow in hyperbolic space of all…

The main goal of this paper is to generalize the Sobolev-type inequalities given by Guo-Phong-Song-Sturm and Guedj-T\^o from the case of functions to the framework of twisted differential forms. To this end, we establish certain estimates…

We consider the asymptotic expansion of the heat kernel of a generalized Laplacian for $t\to 0^+$ and characterize the coefficients $a_k$ of this expansion by a natural intertwining property. In particular we will give a closed formula for…

We introduce a class of non-commutative Heisenberg like infinite dimensional Lie groups based on an abstract Wiener space. The Ricci curvature tensor for these groups is computed and shown to be bounded. Brownian motion and the…

Nash and Sobolev inequalities are known to be equivalent to ultracontractive properties of heat-like Markov semigroups, hence to uniform on-diagonal bounds on their kernel densities. In non ultracontractive settings, such bounds can not…

We consider the Dirichlet form given by \sE(f,f)&=&{1/2}\int_{\bR^d}\sum_{i,j=1}^d a_{ij}(x)\frac{\partial f(x)}{\partial x_i} \frac{\partial f(x)}{\partial x_j} dx &+&\int_{\bR^d\times \bR^d} (f(y)-f(x))^2J(x,y)dxdy. Under the assumption…
