Non-conservative uncertainty bounds are key for both assessing an estimation algorithm's accuracy and in view of downstream tasks, such as its deployment in safety-critical contexts. In this paper, we derive a tight, non-asymptotic…
This paper discusses the existence of gradient estimates for second order hypoelliptic heat kernels on manifolds. It is now standard that such inequalities, in the elliptic case, are equivalent to a lower bound on the Ricci tensor of the…
Let $B_2(p)$ be an $n$-dimensional smooth geodesic ball with Ricci curvature $\geq-(n-1)\kappa^2$ for some $\kappa\geq0$. We establish the Sobolev inequality and the uniform Neumann-Poincar\'e inequality on each minimal graph over $B_1(p)$…
In this paper, we consider symmetric jump processes of mixed-type on metric measure spaces under general volume doubling condition, and establish stability of two-sided heat kernel estimates and heat kernel upper bounds. We obtain their…
We establish sharp upper and lower bounds of Gaussian type for the heat kernel in the metric measure space satisfying $\RCD(0,N)$ ( equivalently, $\RCD^\ast(0,N)$) condition with $N\in \mathbb{N}\setminus\{1\}$ and having maximum volume…
We aim at reviewing and extending a number of recent results addressing stability of certain geometric and analytic estimates in the Riemannian approximation of subRiemannian structures. In particular we extend the recent work of the the…
In this paper we introduce a notion of Poincar\'e exponent for isometric representations of discrete groups on Hilbert spaces. Similarly as growth exponents control the geometry this exponent is shown to control the size of spectral gaps.…
Quenched and annealed heat kernel estimates are established for Fontes-Isopi-Newman (FIN) processes on spaces equipped with a resistance form. These results are new even in the case of the one-dimensional FIN diffusion, and also apply to…
We obtain pointwise lower bounds for heat kernels of higher order differential operators with Dirichlet boundary conditions on bounded domains in $\R^N$. The bounds exhibit explicitly the nature of the spatial decay of the heat kernel close…
We characterize metric measure spaces satisfying parabolic Harnack inequalities for a doubly nonlinear equation in terms of volume doubling and Poincar\'e inequalities. Our approach uses purely analytical methods, based on obtaining…
Let $G$ be an infinite, edge- and vertex-weighted graph with certain reasonable restrictions. We construct the heat kernel of the associated Laplacian using an adaptation of the parametrix approach due to Minakshisundaram-Pleijel in the…
We introduce and study the conical curvature-dimension condition, $CCD(K,N)$, for graphs. We show that $CCD(K,N)$ provides necessary and sufficient conditions for the underlying graph to satisfy a sharp global Poincar\'e inequality which in…
We prove the sharp Gaussian isoperimetric inequality for conjugate heat-kernel measures along a Ricci flow via a monotonicity formula. As consequences, we obtain the exact Gaussian enlargement theorem and a Gaussian-quantile two-set…
We prove pointwise and $L^p$ gradient estimates for the heat kernel on the bounded and unbounded Vicsek set and applications to Sobolev inequalities are given. We also define a Hodge semigroup in that setting and prove estimates for its…
We consider skew extensions of expanding maps by compact Lie groups. For a class of natural invariant measures, we prove an explicit lower bound on the rate of (exponential) mixing involving topological pressure. Proof uses representation…
We study the geometry associated to the Grusin operator G=\Delta_{x}+|x|^{2}\partial_{u}^{2} on \mathbb{R}_{x}^{n}\times\mathbb{R}_{u}, to obtain heat kernel estimates for this operator. The main work is to find the shortest geodesics…
We develop connections between Harnack inequalities for the heat flow of diffusion operators with curvature bounded from below and optimal transportation. Through heat kernel inequalities, a new isoperimetric-type Harnack inequality is…
We prove that for combinatorial graphs with non-negative Ollivier curvature, one has \[ \|P_t \mu - P_t \nu\|_1 \leq \frac{W_1(\mu,\nu)}{\sqrt{t}} \] for all probability measures $\mu,\nu$ where $P_t$ is the heat semigroup and $W_1$ is the…
We study the heat content for Laplacians on compact, finite metric graphs with Dirichlet conditions imposed at the "boundary" (i.e., a given set of vertices). We prove a closed formula of combinatorial flavour, as it is expressed as a sum…
We consider the asymptotics of the discrete heat kernel on isoradial graphs for the case where the time and the edge lengths tend to zero simultaneously. Depending on the asymptotic ratio between time and edge lengths, we show that two…
