This paper aims to study the asymptotic behaviour of the fundamental solutions (heat kernels) of non-local (partial and pseudo differential) equations with fractional operators in time and space. In particular, we obtain exact asymptotic…
Heat transfer in semiconductor devices is dominated by chip and substrate assemblies, where heat generated within a finite chip layer dissipates into a semi-infinite substrate with much higher thermophysical properties. This mismatch…

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 the control problem for the generalized heat equation for a Schroedinger operator on a domain with a reflection symmetry with respect to a hyperplane. We show that if this system is null-controllable, then so is the system on…

We calculate the heat-kernel coefficients, up to $a_2$, for a U(1) bundle on the 4-Ball for boundary conditions which are such that the normal derivative of the field at the boundary is related to a first-order operator in boundary…
Recently, the problem of boundary stabilization for unstable linear constant-coefficient reaction-diffusion equation on N-balls has been solved by means of the backstepping method. However, the extension of this result to spatially-varying…
In this paper, we focus on the backward heat problem of finding the function $\theta(x,y)=u(x,y,0)$ such that \[ {l l l} u_t - a(t)(u_{xx} + u_{yy}) & = f(x,y,t), & \qquad (x,y,t) \in \Omega\times (0,T), u(x,y,T) & = h(x,y), & \qquad (x,y)…
