We consider a linear nonlocal heat equation in a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ with Dirichlet boundary conditions. The non-locality is given by the presence of an integral kernel. We analyze the problem of controllability when…
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…
The heat kernel expansion for field theory at finite temperature is constructed. It is based on the imaginary time formalism and applies to generic Klein-Gordon operators in flat space-time. Full gauge invariance is manifest at each order…
In this article we study Sobolev metrics of order one on diffeomorphism groups on the real line. We prove that the space $\operatorname{Diff}_{1}(\mathbb R)$ equipped with the homogenous Sobolev metric of order one is a flat space in the…
We study numerically the magnetic susceptibility of the hierarchical model with Ising spins ($\sigma =\pm 1$) above the critical temperature and for two values of the epsilon parameter. The integrations are performed exactly, using…
We consider smooth solutions to the biharmonic heat equation on Euclidean space for which the square of the Laplacian at time t is globally bounded from above by k/t for some k in R, for all t in [0,T]. We prove local, in space and time,…
We study the convex hulls of reachable sets of nonlinear systems with bounded disturbances and uncertain initial conditions. Reachable sets play a critical role in control, but remain notoriously challenging to compute, and existing…
A solution to the heat equation between Riemannian manifolds, where the domain is compact and possibly has boundary, will not leave a compact and locally convex set before the image of the boundary does.
We establish dimension-independent estimates related to heat operators e^{tL} on manifolds. We first develop a very general contractivity result for Markov kernels which can be applied to diffusion semigroups. Second, we develop estimates…
This paper concerns the final value problem for the heat equation under the homogeneous Neumann condition on the boundary of a smooth open set in Euclidean space. The problem is here shown to be isomorphically well posed in the sense that…
For an elliptic differential operator $D$ of order $h$ in $n$ dimensions, the spectral $\zeta$-function $\zeta_D(s)$ for $\Re s > \frac{n}{h}$ can be evaluated as an integral over the heat kernel $e^{-t D}$. Here, alternative expressions…
This paper studies observability inequalities for heat equations on both bounded domains and the whole space $\mathbb{R}^d$. The observation sets are measured by log-type Hausdorff contents, which are induced by certain log-type gauge…
This paper is devoted to the theoretical and numerical analysis of the null controllability of a coupled ODE-heat system internally and at the boundary with Neumann boundary control. First, we establish the null controllability of the…
We prove global and local upper bounds for the Hessian of log positive solutions of the heat equation on a Riemannian manifold. The metric is either fixed or evolves under the Ricci flow. These upper bounds supplement the well-known global…
Heating plates describe the transfer of heat from actuators to a target object. In other words, they separate the heat sources and heated object and can be further used to apply a specific heat distribution on this object. Therefore, an…
We establish conditions ensuring either existence or blow-up of nonnegative solutions for the heat equation generated by the Dirichlet fractional Laplacian perturbed by negative potentials on bounded sets. The elaborated theory is supplied…
In this paper, we study sharp two-sided heat kernel estimates for a large class of symmetric reflected diffusions with jumps on the closure of an inner uniform domain $D$ in a length metric space. The length metric is the intrinsic metric…
We use the Cauchy-Crofton formula to show that every definable cell (bounded by a ball with rational radius) in an O-minimal expansion of a field extension of the real numbers satisfies the Whitney arc property.
We prove sharp estimates of the heat kernel associated with Fourier-Dini expansions on $(0,1)$ equipped with Lebesgue measure and the Neumann condition imposed on the right endpoint. Then we give several applications of this result…
We give an explicit upper bound for non-principal Dirichlet $L$-functions on the line $s=1+it$. This result can be applied to improve the error in the zero-counting formulae for these functions.
