We introduce and study new invariants associated with Laplace type elliptic partial differential operators on manifolds. These invariants are constructed by using the off-diagonal heat kernel; they are not pure spectral invariants, that is,…

We study the radial parts of the Brownian motions on K\"ahler and quaternion K\"ahler manifolds. Thanks to sharp Laplacian comparison theorems, we deduce as a consequence a sharp Cheeger-Yau type lower bound for the heat kernels of such…

In this paper we study the behaviour in time of the trace (the partition function) of the heat semigroup associated with symmetric stable processes in domains of $\Rd$. In particular, we show that for domains with the so called…

We prove several functional and geometric inequalities only assuming the linearity and a quantitative $\mathrm{L}^\infty$-to-Lipschitz smoothing of the heat semigroup in metric-measure spaces. Our results comprise a Buser inequality, a…

We compute the coefficients in asymptotics of regularized traces and associated trace (spectral) distributions for Schrodinger operators, with short and long range potentials. A kernel expansion for the Schrodinger semigroup is derived, and…

We consider a self-adjoint non-negative operator $H$ in a Hilbert space $\mathsf{L}^2(X,{\rm d}\mu)$. We assume that the semigroup $(\mathrm{e}^{-t H})_{t>0}$ is defined by an integral kernel, $p$, which allows an estimate of the form…

The problem of infinities (divergent integrals) appearing in quantum field theory or elementary particle physics are treated by renormalization in the current theories. By this perturbative tool the desired finite quantities are produced by…

A special class of non-minimal operators which are relevant for quantum field theory is introduced. The general form of the heat kernel coefficients of these operators on manifolds without boundary is described. New results are presented…

We investigate the PT-symmetry of the quantum group invariant XXZ chain. We show that the PT-operator commutes with the quantum group action and also discuss the transformation properties of the Bethe wavefunction. We exploit the fact that…

We calculate heat invariants of arbitrary Riemannian manifolds without boundary. Every heat invariant is expressed in terms of powers of the Laplacian and the distance function. Our approach is based on a multi-dimensional generalization of…

Let $\eta$ be a closed real 1-form on a closed Riemannian $n$-manifold $(M,g)$. Let $d_z$, $\delta_z$ and $\Delta_z$ be the induced Witten's type perturbations of the de~Rham derivative and coderivative and the Laplacian, parametrized by…

For a given bounded domain $\Omega$ with smooth boundary in a smooth Riemannian manifold $(\mathcal{M},g)$, we establish a procedure to get all the coefficients of the asymptotic expansion of the trace of the heat kernel associated with the…

We study the algebra of differential operators on non-compact simply connected harmonic manifolds and provide sufficient conditions for them to have a radial fundamental solution and be surjective on the space of smooth function.…

The present work intends to complement the study of the regularity of the solutions of the thermoelastic plate with rotacional forces. The rotational forces involve the spectral fractional Laplacian, with power parameter $\tau\in [0,1]$ (…

We consider a Brownian motion with drift in the quarter plane with orthogonal reflection on the axes. The Laplace transform of its stationary distribution satisfies a functional equation, which is reminiscent from equations arising in the…

We consider local singular perturbations of a one-dimensional Laplace operator from the point of view of semigroup theory. Under certain assumptions, we prove the convergence of the corresponding semigroups to the heat semigroup with…

We begin with a review and analytical construction of quantum Gaussian process (and quantum Brownian motions) in the sense of [25],[10] and others, and then formulate and study in details (with a number of interesting examples) a definition…

Let $\Omega_0$ be a polygon in $\RR^2$, or more generally a compact surface with piecewise smooth boundary and corners. Suppose that $\Omega_\e$ is a family of surfaces with $\calC^\infty$ boundary which converges to $\Omega_0$ smoothly…

We introduce and study Brownian bridges to submanifolds. Our method involves proving a general formula for the integral over a submanifold of the minimal heat kernel on a complete Riemannian manifold. We use the formula to derive lower…
