Let $\Omega$ be an open set in a complete, smooth, non-compact, $m$-dimensional Riemannian manifold $M$ without boundary, where $M$ satisfies a two-sided Li-Yau gaussian heat kernel bound. It is shown that if $\Omega$ has infinite measure,…

A unified treatment is given of some results of H. Donnelly-P. Li and L. Schwartz concerning the behaviour of heat semigroups on open manifolds with given compactifications, on one hand, and the relationship with the behaviour at infinity…

In this paper, we study the heat kernel associated to the intrinsic sublaplacian on a quaternionic contact manifold considered as a subriemannian manifold. More precisely, we explicitly compute the first two coefficients $c_0$ and $c_1$…

We study the prescribed mean curvature equation for $t$-graphs in a Riemannian Heisenberg group of arbitrary dimension. We characterize the existence of classical solutions in a bounded domain without imposing Dirichlet boundary data, and…

This paper aims at proving the local boundedness and continuity of solutions of the heat equation in the context of Dirichlet spaces under some rather weak additional assumptions. We consider symmetric local regular Dirichlet forms which…

For incomplete sub-Riemannian manifolds, and for an associated second-order hypoelliptic operator, which need not be symmetric, we identify two alternative conditions for the validity of Gaussian-type upper bounds on heat kernels and…

We prove a height-estimate (distance from the tangent hyperplane) for $\Lambda$-minima of the perimeter in the sub-Riemannian Heisenberg group. The estimate is in terms of a power of the excess ($L^2$-mean oscillation of the normal) and its…

We obtain the asymptotic expansion of the solutions of some anisotropic heat equations when the initial data belong to polynomially weighted Lp-spaces. We mainly address two model examples. In the first one, the diffusivity is of order two…

We consider the short time asymptotics of the heat content $E$ of a domain $D$ of $\mathbb{R}^d$. The novelty of this paper is that we consider the situation where $D$ is a domain whose boundary $\partial D$ is a random Koch type curve.…

The main results of this article are small time heat comparison results for two points in two manifolds with characteristic functions as initial temperature distributions (Theorems 1 and 2). These results are based on the geometric concepts…

Low-temperature thermodynamic properties of the spin-1/2 Heisenberg ladder system with non-magnetic impurities are discussed using an effective Hamiltonian for the impurity-induced spins in the background of a spin liquid with a gap. It is…

Upper bounds are obtained for the heat content of an open set D in a geodesically complete Riemannian manifold M with Dirichlet boundary condition on bd(D), and non-negative initial condition. We show that these upper bounds are close to…

This paper provides a characterization of functions of bounded variation (BV) in a compact Riemannian manifold in terms of the short time behavior of the heat semigroup. In particular, the main result proves that the total variation of a…

The paper is devoted to the large scale geometry of the Heisenberg group $\mathbb H$ equipped with left-invariant Riemannian distances. We prove that two such distances have bounded difference if and only if they are asymptotic, i.e., their…

Let $(M^n, g)$ be a complete Riemannian manifold with $Rc\geq -Kg$, $H(x, y, t)$ is the heat kernel on $M^n$, and $H= (4\pi t)^{-\frac{n}{2}}e^{-f}$. Nash entropy is defined as $N(H, t)= \int_{M^n} (fH) d\mu(x)- \frac{n}{2}$. We studied the…

In this work, we study the asymptotic behaviour of solutions to the heat equation in exterior domains, i.e., domains which are the complement of a smooth compact set in $\mathbb{R}^N$. Different homogeneous boundary conditions are…

In this paper we provide the small-time heat kernel asymptotics at the cut locus in three relevant cases: generic low-dimensional Riemannian manifolds, generic 3D contact sub-Riemannian manifolds (close to the starting point) and generic 4D…

Minimal surfaces in the sub-Riemannian Heisenberg group can be constructed by means of a Riemannian approximation scheme, as limit of Riemannian minimal surfaces. We study the regularity of Lipschitz, non-characteristic minimal surfaces…
