We derive large time upper bounds for heat kernels on vector bundles of differential forms on a class of non-compact Riemannian manifolds under certain curvature conditions.
The aim of this paper is threefold. First, we obtain the precise bounds for the heat kernel on isotropic Heisenberg groups by using well-known results in the three dimensional case. Second, we study the asymptotic estimates at infinity for…

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…
In the sub-Riemannian manifolds, on the one hand, following Baudoin-Garofalo \cite{BaudoinGarofalo}, the upper bound for heat kernels associated to a class of locally subelliptic operators are given under the generalized curvature-dimension…
In this note we show the optimal gradient estimate for heat kernels of stable-like operators by providing a counterexample.
In this paper we prove that the heat kernel $k$ associated to the operator $A:= (1+|x|^\alpha)\Delta +b|x|^{\alpha-1}\frac{x}{|x|}\cdot\nabla -|x|^\beta$ satisfies $$ k(t,x,y) \leq c_1e^{\lambda_0 t+…
We consider a quantum graph where the operator contains a potential. We show that this operator admits a heat kernel. Under some assumptions on the potential, this heat kernel admits an asymptotic expansion at t=0 with coefficients that…
We propose a novel derivation of the non-local heat kernel expansion, first studied by Barvinsky, Vilkovisky and Avramidi, based on simple diagrammatic equations satisfied by the heat kernel. For Laplace-type differential operators we…
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…
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 point out that using the heat kernel on a cone to compute the first quantum correction to the entropy of Rindler space does not yield the correct temperature dependence. In order to obtain the physics at arbitrary temperature one must…
We study the heat kernel for an operator of Laplace type with a $\delta$-function potential concentrated on a closed surface. We derive the general form of the small $t$ asymptotics and calculate explicitly several first heat kernel…
Suppose that $d\ge 1$ and $\alpha\in (0, 2)$. In this paper, by using probabilistic methods, we establish sharp two-sided pointwise estimates for the Dirichlet heat kernels of $\{\Delta+ a^\alpha \Delta^{\alpha/2}; \ a\in (0, 1]\}$ on…
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 study pointwise and $L^p$ gradient estimates of the heat kernel, on manifolds that may have some amount of negative Ricci curvature, provided it is not too negative (in an integral sense) at infinity. We also prove uniform boundedness…
We give local in time sharp two sided estimates of the heat kernel associated with the relativistic stable operator perturbed by a critical (Hardy) potential.
We consider the heat kernel for higher-derivative and nonlocal operators in $d$-dimensional Euclidean space-time and its asymptotic behavior. As a building block for operators of such type, we consider the heat kernel of the minimal…
