The aim of this paper is to prove the existence and several selected properties of a global fundamental Heat kernel $\Gamma$ for the parabolic operators $\mathcal{H}=\sum_{j=1}^m X_j^2-\partial_t$, where $X_1,\ldots,X_m$ are smooth vector…

We study measures associated to Brownian motions on infinite-dimensional Heisenberg-like groups. In particular, we prove that the associated path space measure and heat kernel measure satisfy a strong definition of smoothness.
We will discuss what it means for a general heat kernel on a metric measure space to be local. We show that the Wiener measure associated to Brownian motion is local. Next we show that locality of the Wiener measure plus a suitable decay…
Recently proposed nonlocal and nonperturbative late time behavior of the heat kernel is generalized to curved spacetimes. Heat kernel trace asymptotics is dominated by two terms one of which represents a trivial covariantization of the…
