We obtain Gaussian upper bounds for heat kernels of higher order differential operators with Dirichlet boundary conditions on bounded domains in $\R^N$. The bounds exhibit explicitly the nature of the spatial decay of the heat kernel close…
We study a spatial asymptotic behaviour at infinity of kernels $p_t(x)$ for convolution semigroups of nonlocal pseudo-differential operators. We give general and sharp sufficient conditions under which the limits $$ \lim_{r \to \infty}…
We consider heat semigroups of the form $\exp(t(\Delta - \lambda\mathbf{1}_{\Omega_0}))$ on bounded domains. These singularly perturbed equations arise in certain models of diffusion limited chemical reactions. Using variants of Moser…
We revisit the Caldeira-Leggett model of quantum Brownian motion with Ohmic spectral density, and derive an additional contribution to the decoherence kernel in a new high-temperature limit at arbitrarily large cut-off frequency. This…

Motivated by the study of relativistic atoms, we prove sharp heat kernel bounds for the Hardy operator $(-\Delta)^{\alpha/2}-\kappa|x|^{-\alpha}$ acting on functions of the form $u(|x|) |x|^{\ell} Y_{\ell,m}(x/|x|)$ in $L^2(\R^d)$, when…
We derive upper bounds for the trace of the heat kernel $Z(t)$ of the Dirichlet Laplace operator in an open set $\Omega \subset \R^d$, $d \geq 2$. In domains of finite volume the result improves an inequality of Kac. Using the same methods…
The lower order terms of the heat kernel expansion at coincident points are computed in the context of finite temperature quantum field theory for flat space-time and in the presence of general gauge and scalar fields which may be non…
Let $n\ge2$ and $\Omega$ be a bounded non-tangentially accessible domain (for short, NTA domain) of $\mathbb{R}^n$. Assume that $L_D$ is a second-order divergence form elliptic operator having real-valued, bounded, measurable coefficients…
In this paper we study the transition densities for a large class of non-symmetric Markov processes whose jumping kernels decay exponentially or subexponentially. We obtain their upper bounds which also decay at the same rate as their…
The decay width of the $\omega$ meson at finite temperature is calculated using the Gell-Mann Sharp Wagner model of $\rho$ pole dominance. Effective masses of the $\rho$ and $\omega$ are determined within the framework of real-time…
In this paper we provide a lower bound for the long time on-diagonal heat kernel of minimal submanifolds in a Cartan-hadamard ambient manifold assuming that the submanifold is of polynomial volume growth. In particular cases, that lower…
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 give the asymptotics of the tail of the distribution of the first exit time of the isotropic $\alpha$-stable L\'evy process from the Lipschitz cone in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We obtain the Yaglom limit for the killed stable process for the cone.…
We consider continuous time simple random walks with arbitrary speed measure $\theta$ on infinite weighted graphs. Write $p_t(x,y)$ for the heat kernel of this process. Given on-diagonal upper bounds for the heat kernel at two points…
In this paper we study the large time behavior of the (minimal) heat kernel $k_P^M(x,y,t)$ of a general time independent parabolic operator $L=u_t+P(x, \partial_x)$ which is defined on a noncompact manifold $M$. More precisely, we prove…
We study the large-time behavior of the continuous-time heat kernel and of solutions to the heat equation on homogeneous trees. First, we derive sharp asymptotic formulas for the heat kernel as $t\to\infty$. Second, using them, we show that…
