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 consider a class of constant-coefficient partial differential operators on a finite-dimensional real vector space which exhibit a natural dilation invariance. Typically, these operators are anisotropic, allowing for different degrees in…

We consider the heat equation associated with a class of hypoelliptic operators of Kolmogorov-Fokker-Planck type in dimension two. We explicitly compute the first meaningful coefficient of the small time asymptotic expansion of the heat…
By establishing the intrinsic super-Poincar\'e inequality, some explicit conditions are presented for diffusion semigroups on a non-compact complete Riemannian manifold to be intrinsically ultracontractive. These conditions, as well as the…
The purpose of this article is to establish upper and lower estimates for the integral kernel of the semigroup exp(-tP) associated to a classical, strongly elliptic pseudodifferential operator P of positive order on a closed manifold. The…
We prove that for a general diffusion process, certain assumptions on its behavior \emph{only within a fixed open subset} of the state space imply the existence and sub-Gaussian type off-diagonal upper bounds of the \emph{global} heat…
We show that the $L^p$ boundedness, $p>2$, of the Riesz transform on a complete non-compact Riemannian manifold with upper and lower Gaussian heat kernel estimates is equivalent to a certain form of Sobolev inequality. We also characterize…
Let $L$ be a nonnegative, self-adjoint operator on $L^2(\mathbb{R}^n)$ with the Gaussian upper bound on its heat kernel. As a generalization of the square Campanato space $\mathcal{L}^{2,\lambda}_{-\Delta}(\mathbb R^n)$, in \cite{DXY} the…
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…
We study the low-energy approximation for calculation of the heat kernel which is determined by the strong slowly varying background fields in strongly curved quasi-homogeneous manifolds. A new covariant algebraic approach, based on taking…
An overview about recent progress in the calculation of the heat kernel and the one-loop effective action in quantum gravity and gauge theories is given. We analyse the general structure of the standard Schwinger-De Witt asymptotic…
In this paper we study global Poincare inequalities on balls in a large class of sub-Riemannian manifolds satisfying the generalized curvature dimension inequality introduced by F.Baudoin and N.Garofalo. As a corollary, we prove the…
The formulation of gauge theories on compact Riemannian manifolds with boundary leads to partial differential operators with Gilkey--Smith boundary conditions, whose peculiar property is the occurrence of both normal and tangential…
We review recent results about heat kernel estimates based on Kato conditions on the negative part of the Ricci curvature.
We introduce renormalized integrals which generalize conventional measure theoretic integrals. One approximates the integration domain by measure spaces and defines the integral as the limit of integrals over the approximating spaces. This…
We establish Gaussian-type upper bounds on the heat kernel for a continuous-time random walk on a graph with unbounded weights under an ergodicity assumption. For the proof we use Davies' perturbation method, where we show a maximal…
This paper aims at proving the local boundedness and continuity of solutions of the heat equation in the context of Dirichlet spaces under some rather weak additional assumptions. We consider symmetric local regular Dirichlet forms which…
Consider the heat kernel $p(t,x,y)$ on the universal cover $X$ of a Riemannian manifold $M$ of negative curvature. We show the local limit theorem for $p$ : $$\lim_{t \to \infty} t^{3/2}e^{\lambda_0 t} p(t,x,y)=C(x,y),$$ where $\lambda_0$…
We study the heat semigroup maximal operator associated with a well-known orthonormal system in the d-dimensional ball. The corresponding heat kernel is shown to satisfy Gaussian bounds. As a consequence, we can prove weighted $L^p$…
