We study the existence and uniqueness of the heat kernel on infinite, locally finite, connected graphs. For general graphs, a uniqueness criterion, shown to be optimal, is given in terms of the maximal valence on spheres about a fixed…

We introduce a H\"older regularity condition for harmonic functions on metric measure spaces and prove that, under a slow volume regular condition and an upper heat kernel estimate, the H\"older regularity condition, the weak Bakry-\'Emery…

Given a metric measure space $(\mathcal{X}, d, \mu)$ satisfying the volume doubling condition, we consider a semigroup $\{S_t\}$ and the associated heat operator. We propose general conditions on the heat kernel so that the solutions of the…

We explicitly evaluate the heat kernel for the Laplacian of arbitrary spin tensor fields on the thermal quotient of (Euclidean) $AdS_N$ for $N\geq 3$ using the group theoretic techniques employed for $AdS_3$ in arXiv:0911.5085. Our approach…

The paper considers a manifold $M$ evolving under the Ricci flow and establishes a series of gradient estimates for positive solutions of the heat equation on $M$. Among other results, we prove Li-Yau-type inequalities in this context. We…
