We use a basic martingale method to show a differentiation formula for the derivatives $$d(P_tf)(x_0)(v_0)={1\over t} E f(x_t) \int_0^t \langle Y(x_s)(v_s),dB_t\rangle_{R^m}.$$ These are proved first on $R^n$, then on manifolds. Afterwards…

In this paper, we consider a symmetric pure jump Markov process $X$ on a metric measure space with volume doubling conditions. Our focus is on estimating the transition density $p(t,x,y)$ of $X$ and studying its stability when the jumping…

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,…

Let $(X,d,\mu)$ be a doubling metric measure space endowed with a Dirichlet form $\E$ deriving from a "carr\'e du champ". Assume that $(X,d,\mu,\E)$ supports a scale-invariant $L^2$-Poincar\'e inequality. In this article, we study the…

For the discrete Laguerre operators we compute explicitly the corresponding heat kernels by expressing them with the help of Jacobi polynomials. This enables us to show that the heat semigroup is ultracontractive and to compute the…

Let $H=-\Delta+V$ be a Schr\"odinger operator on $\mathbb{R}^n$. We show that gradient estimates for the heat kernel of $H$ with upper Gaussian bounds imply polynomial decay for the kernels of certain smooth dyadic spectral operators. The…

Let $X_{1},...,X_{m}$ be a family of real smooth vector fields defined in $\mathbb{R}^{n}$, $1$-homogeneous with respect to a nonisotropic family of dilations and satisfying H\"{o}rmander's rank condition at $0$ (and therefore at every…

We approximate the heat kernel $h(x,y,t)$ on a compact connected Riemannian manifold $M$ without boundary uniformly in $(x,y,t)\in M\times M\times [a,b]$, $a>0$, by $n$-fold integrals over $M^n$ of the densities of Brownian bridges.…

Among the available perturbative approaches in quantum field theory, heat kernel techniques provide a powerful and geometrically transparent framework for computing effective actions in nontrivial backgrounds. In this work, resummation…

We consider the solution of $\partial_t u=\partial_x^2 u+\partial_x\partial_t B,\,(x,t)\in R\times(0,\infty)$, subject to $u(x,0)=0,\,x\in R$, where $B$ is a Brownian sheet. We show that $u$ also satisfies $\partial_x^2 u…

We prove upper and lower bounds of the heat kernel for the operator $\Delta-\nabla (\frac{1}{|x|^{\alpha}})\cdot \nabla $ in $\mathbb{R}^{n}\setminus\{0} $ where $\alpha >0$. We obtain these bounds from an isoperimetric inequality for a…

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…
