We study the heat equation $\frac{\partial u}{\partial t}-\Delta u=0,\ u(x,0)=\omega (x),$ where $\Delta :=dd^{*}+d^{*}d$ is the Hodge laplacian and $u(\cdot ,t)$ and $\omega $ are $p$-differential forms in the complete Riemannian manifold…

We study Brownian motion on Hermitian symmetric spaces of non-compact type in their bounded-domain realization. Using Jordan triple systems, we identify the spectral values after an appropriate change of variables as a Heckman-Opdam…

Let M be a compact manifold without boundary. Associated to a metric g on M there are various Laplace operators, for example the de Rham Laplacian on forms and the conformal Laplacian on functions. For a general Laplace type operator we…

We lay the theoretical and mathematical foundations of the square root of Browniam motion and we prove the existence of such a process. In doing so, we consider Brownian motion on quantized noncommutative Riemannian manifolds and show how a…

We use tools from $n$-dimensional Brownian motion in conjunction with the Feynman-Kac formulation of heat diffusion to study nodal geometry on a compact Riemannian manifold $M$. On one hand we extend a theorem of Lieb and prove that any…

We solve the Riemann-Hilbert problem on the sphere topology for three singularities of finite strength and a fourth one infinitesimal, by determining perturbatively the Poincare' accessory parameters. In this way we compute the…

We study the heat equation associated to a multiplicity function on a root system, where the corresponding Laplace operator has been defined by Heckman and Opdam. In particular, we describe the image of the associated Segal-Bargmann…

We construct an analogue of Dyson Brownian motion in the Siegel half-space H that we term Siegel Brownian motion. Given \beta in (0,\infty], a stochastic flow for Z_t in H is introduced so that the law of the eigenvalues \lambda_t of the…

We initiate the study of a q-deformed geometry for quantum SU(2). In contrast with the usual properties of a spectral triple, we get that only twisted commutators between algebra elements and our Dirac operator are bounded. Furthermore, the…

In this paper, we investigate heat semigroups on a quantum automorphism group ${\rm Aut}^+(B)$ of a finite dimensional C*-algebra $B$ and its Plancherel trace. We show ultracontractivity, hypercontractivity, and the spectral gap inequality…
