We study inequalities related to the heat kernel for the hypoelliptic sublaplacian on an H-type Lie group. Specifically, we obtain precise pointwise upper and lower bounds on the heat kernel function itself. We then apply these bounds to…

We investigate a Sobolev map $f$ from a finite dimensional RCD space $(X, \dist_X, \meas_X)$ to a finite dimensional non-collapsed compact RCD space $(Y, \dist_Y, \mathcal{H}^N)$. If the image $f(X)$ is smooth in a weak sense (which is…

In this paper, we consider the following symmetric non-local Dirichlet forms of pure jump type on metric measure space $(M,d,\mu)$: $$\mathcal{E}(f,g)=\int_{M\times M} (f(x)-f(y))(g(x)-g(y))\,J(dx,dy),$$ where $J(dx,dy)$ is a symmetric…

We study reflected diffusion on uniform domains where the underlying space admits a symmetric diffusion that satisfies sub-Gaussian heat kernel estimates. A celebrated theorem of Jones (Acta Math. 1981) states that uniform domains in…
