We obtain matching two sided estimates of the heat kernel on a connected sum of parabolic manifolds, each of them satisfying the Li-Yau estimate. The key result is the on-diagonal upper bound of the heat kernel at a central point. Contrary…

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…

We show a diffusive upper bound on the transition probability of a tagged particle in the symmetric simple exclusion process. The proof relies on optimal spectral gap estimates for the dynamics in finite volume, which are of independent…

We consider a random walk on a random graph $(V,E)$, where $V$ is the set of open sites under i.i.d. Bernoulli site percolation on the multi-dimensional integer set $\mathbf{Z}^d$, and the transition probabilities of the walk are generated…

We study discrete time random walks in an environment of i.i.d. non-negative bounded conductances in $\mathbb{Z}^d$. We are interested in the anomaly of the heat-kernel decay. We improve recent results and techniques.

We study a continuous time random walk $X$ in an environment of i.i.d. random conductances $\mu_e\in[1,\infty)$. We obtain heat kernel bounds and prove a quenched invariance principle for $X$. This holds even when…

We introduce anchored versions of the Nash inequality. They allow to control the $L^2$ norm of a function by Dirichlet forms that are not uniformly elliptic. We then use them to provide heat kernel upper bounds for diffusions in degenerate…

We derive laws of the iterated logarithm for random walks on random conductance models under the assumption that the random walks enjoy long time sub-Gaussian heat kernel estimates.

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…

Let $(X,d,\mu)$ be a $RCD^\ast(K, N)$ space with $K\in \mathbb{R}$ and $N\in [1,\infty]$. For $N\in [1,\infty)$, we derive the upper and lower bounds of the heat kernel on $(X,d,\mu)$ by applying the parabolic Harnack inequality and the…

We analyze the asymptotic behaviour of the heat kernel defined by a stochastically perturbed geodesic flow on the cotangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold for small time and small diffusion parameter. This extends WKB-type methods to a…

Working within the framework of the covariant perturbation theory, we obtain the coincidence limit of the heat kernel of an elliptic second order differential operator that is applicable to a large class of quantum field theories. The basis…

We study the random walk $(S_n)_{n\geq 1}$ with independent and identically distributed real-valued increments having zero mean and an absolute moment of order $2 + \delta$ for some $\delta > 0$. For any starting point $x \in \mathbb{R}$,…

We establish sharp upper and lower bounds of Gaussian type for the heat kernel in the metric measure space satisfying $\RCD(0,N)$ ( equivalently, $\RCD^\ast(0,N)$) condition with $N\in \mathbb{N}\setminus\{1\}$ and having maximum volume…

Recent progress on the understanding of the Random Conductance Model is reviewed. A particular emphasis is on homogenization results such as functional central limit theorems, local limit theorems and heat kernel estimates for almost every…

The goal of this paper is to establish sharp two-sided estimates on the heat kernels of two types of purely discontinuous symmetric Markov processes in the upper half-space of $\mathbb R^d$ with jump kernels degenerate at the boundary. The…

Heat kernel methods are useful for studying properties of quantum gravity. We recompute here the first three heat kernel coefficients in perturbative quantum gravity with cosmological constant to ascertain which ones are correctly reported…

This paper studies by means of standard analytic tools the small time behavior of the heat content over a bounded Lebesgue measurable set of finite perimeter by working with the set covariance function and by imposing conditions on the heat…

In this article, we establish Gaussian decay for the Box_b-heat kernel on polynomial models in C^2. Our technique attains the exponential decay via a partial Fourier transform. On the transform side, the problem becomes finding quantitative…

We investigate the relationships between the parabolic Harnack inequality, heat kernel estimates, some geometric conditions, and some analytic conditions for random walks with long range jumps. Unlike the case of diffusion processes, the…
