Nash or Sobolev inequalities are known to be equivalent to ultracontractive properties of Markov semigroups, hence to uniform bounds on their kernel densities. In this work we present a simple and extremely general method, based on weighted…
It is well known that Nash-type inequalities for symmetric Dirichlet forms are equivalent to on-diagonal heat kernel upper bounds for the associated symmetric Markov semigroups. In this paper, we show that both imply (and hence are…
In this paper, we prove the equivalent of ultracontractive bound of heat semigroup or the uniform upper bound of the heat kernel with the Nash inequality, Log-Sobolev inequalities on graphs. We also show that under the assumption of volume…
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…
We study heat equations $\frac{\partial u}{\partial t} - \operatorname{div} \left( A \nabla u \right) = 0$ on bounded Lipschitz domains $\Omega$ in $\mathbb{R}^{d}$ for $d \in \mathbb{N}$, where $-\operatorname{div} \left( A \nabla \cdot…
We derive sharp, local and dimension dependent hypercontractive bounds on the Markov kernel of a large class of diffusion semigroups. Unlike the dimension free ones, they capture refined properties of Markov kernels, such as trace…
On doubling metric measure spaces endowed with a strongly local regular Dirichlet form, we show some characterisations of pointwise upper bounds of the heat kernel in terms of global scale-invariant inequalities that correspond respectively…
We consider a quantum generalization of the classical heat equation, and study contractivity properties of its associated semigroup. We prove a Nash inequality and a logarithmic Sobolev inequality. The former leads to an ultracontractivity…
In this note, we prove global weighted Sobolev inequalities on non-compact CD(0,N) spaces satisfying a suitable growth condition, extending to possibly non-smooth and non-Riemannian structures a previous result by V. Minerbe stated for…
We investigate local variants of Nash inequalities in the context of Dunkl operators. Pseudo-Poincar\'e inequalities are first established using pointwise gradient estimates of the Dunkl heat kernel. These inequalities allow to obtain…
A set of functional inequalities - called Nash inequalities - are introduced and analyzed in the context of quantum Markov process mixing. The basic theory of Nash inequalities is extended to the setting of non-commutative Lp spaces, where…
We consider metric graphs with Kirchhoff boundary conditions. We study the intrinsic metric, volume doubling and a Poincar\'e inequality. This enables us to prove a parabolic Harnack inequality. The proof involves various techniques from…
Sub-Gaussian heat kernel estimates are typical of fractal graphs. We show that sub-Gaussian estimates on graphs follow from a Poincar\'e inequality, capacity upper bound, and a slow volume growth condition. An important feature of this work…
Assuming a weighted Nash type inequality for the generator $-A$ of a Markov semigroup, we prove a weighted Nash type inequality for its fractional power and deduce non-uniform bounds on the transition kernel corresponding to the Markov…
We prove first that the realization $A_{\min}$ of $A:=\mathrm{div}(Q\nabla)-V$ in $L^2(\mathbb{R}^d)$ with unbounded coefficients generates a symmetric sub-Markovian and ultracontractive semigroup on $L^2(\mathbb{R}^d)$ which coincides on…
Davies' method of perturbed semigroups is a classical technique to obtain off-diagonal upper bounds on the heat kernel. However Davies' method does not apply to anomalous diffusions due to the singularity of energy measures. In this note,…
We prove a global Li-Yau inequality for a general Markov semigroup under a curvature-dimension condition. This inequality is stronger than all classical Li-Yau type inequalities known to us. On a Riemannian manifold, it is equivalent to a…
We derive Gaussian heat kernel bounds on graphs with respect to a fixed origin for large times under the assumption of a Sobolev inequality and volume doubling on large balls. The upper bound from our previous work [KR22] is affected by a…
This paper studies strongly local symmetric Dirichlet forms on general measure spaces. The underlying space is equipped with the intrinsic metric induced by the Dirichlet form, with respect to which the metric measure space does not…
