An Eulerian orientation is an orientation of the edges of a graph such that every vertex is balanced: its in-degree equals its out-degree. Counting Eulerian orientations corresponds to the crucial partition function in so-called ``ice-type…
We consider Laplacians acting on sections of homogeneous vector bundles over symmetric spaces. By using an integral representation of the heat semi-group we find a formal solution for the heat kernel diagonal that gives a generating…
We prove heat kernel estimates for the $\bar\partial$-Neumann Laplacian acting in spaces of differential forms over noncompact, strongly pseudoconvex complex manifolds with a Lie group symmetry and compact quotient. We also relate our…
We introduce a semigroup framework for Laplacians on directed hypergraphs, extending the classical heat flow models on graphs and establishing hypergraphs as prototypical models for non-Markovian diffusion. We apply spectral surgery methods…
These are lecture notes from a course given at the summer school "Heat kernels and spectral geometry: from manifolds to graphs" in Bregenz, Austria, 2022. They are designed to be accessible to doctoral level students, and include background…
Statistical models on infinite graphs may exhibit inhomogeneous thermodynamic behaviour at macroscopic scales. This phenomenon is of geometrical origin and may be properly described in terms of spectral partitions into subgraphs with well…
We consider the heat-kernel expansion of the massive Laplace operator on the three dimensional ball with Dirichlet boundary conditions. Using this example, we illustrate a very effective scheme for the calculation of an (in principle)…
We consider weighted graphs with an infinite set of vertices. We show that boundedness of all functions of finite energy can be seen as a notion of `relative compactness' for such graphs and study sufficient and necessary conditions for…
Formal Laplace operators are analyzed for a large class of resistance networks with vertex weights. The graphs are completed with respect to the minimal resistance path metric. Compactness and a novel connectivity hypothesis for the…
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…
We establish several new relations between the discrete transition operator, the continuous Laplacian and the averaging operator associated with combinatorial and metric graphs. It is shown that these operators can be expressed through each…
Gaussian processes (GPs) provide a principled and direct approach for inference and learning on graphs. However, the lack of justified graph kernels for spatio-temporal modelling has held back their use in graph problems. We leverage an…
We study the heat kernel asymptotics for the Laplace type differential operators on vector bundles over Riemannian manifolds. In particular this includes the case of the Laplacians acting on differential p-forms. We extend our results…
We give a short proof of a strong version of the short time asymptotic expansion of heat kernels associated to Laplace type operators acting on sections of vector bundles over compact Riemannian manifolds, including exponential decay of the…
We consider the heat semi-group generated by the Laplace operator on metric trees. Among our results we show how the behavior of the associated heat kernel depends on the geometry of the tree. As applications we establish new eigenvalue…
For a class of Laplace exponents we derive the heat trace asymptotics of the generator of the corresponding subordinate Brownian motion on Euclidean space. The terms in the asymptotic expansion are found to depend both on the geometry of…
We consider diffusion on discrete measure spaces as encoded by Markovian semigroups arising from weighted graphs. We study whether the graph is uniquely determined if the diffusion is given up to order isomorphism. If the graph is recurrent…
Here we introduce connectivity operators, namely, diffusion operators, general Laplacian operators, and general adjacency operators for hypergraphs. These operators are generalisations of some conventional notions of apparently different…
In the realm of Delone sets in locally compact, second countable, Hausdorff groups, we develop a dynamical systems approach in order to study the continuity behavior of measured quantities arising from point sets. A special focus is both on…
The aim of this article is to develop the theory of product Hardy spaces associated with operators which possess the weak assumption of Davies--Gaffney heat kernel estimates, in the setting of spaces of homogeneous type. We also establish a…
