A stable-like process is a Feller process $(X_t)_{t\geq 0}$ taking values in $\mathbb{R}^d$ and whose generator behaves, locally, like an $\alpha$-stable L\'evy process, but the index $\alpha$ and all other characteristics may depend on the…
We consider a family of pseudo differential operators $\{\Delta+ a^\alpha \Delta^{\alpha/2}; a\in (0, 1]\}$ on $\bR^d$ for every $d\geq 1$ that evolves continuously from $\Delta$ to $\Delta + \Delta^{\alpha/2}$, where $\alpha \in (0, 2)$.…

Suppose that $d\ge 1$ and $\alpha\in (0, 2)$. In this paper, by using probabilistic methods, we establish sharp two-sided pointwise estimates for the Dirichlet heat kernels of $\{\Delta+ a^\alpha \Delta^{\alpha/2}; \ a\in (0, 1]\}$ on…
Let $n\ge2$ and $\Omega$ be a bounded non-tangentially accessible domain (for short, NTA domain) of $\mathbb{R}^n$. Assume that $L_D$ is a second-order divergence form elliptic operator having real-valued, bounded, measurable coefficients…
We suggest a method of reduction of mixed absolute and relative boundary conditions to pure ones. The case of rank two tensor is studied in detail. For four-dimensional disk the corresponding heat kernel is expressed in terms of scalar heat…
Given $\alpha > -1$, consider the second order differential operator in $(0,\infty)$, $$L_\alpha f \equiv (x^2 \frac{d^2}{dx^2} + (2\alpha+3)x \frac{d}{dx} + x^2 + (\alpha+1)^2)(f), $$ which appears in the theory of Bessel functions. The…
In this work we construct the heat kernel of the 1/2-order Laplacian perturbed by the first-order gradient term in H\"older space and the zero-order potential term in generalized Kato's class, and obtain sharp two-sided estimates as well as…
We obtain an upper bound on the heat kernel of the Keller-Segel finite particle system that exhibits blow up effects. The proof exploits a connection between Keller-Segel finite particles and certain non-local operators. The latter allows…
Consider the Schr\"odinger operator $ \mathcal L^V=-\Delta+V $ on $\R^d$, where $V:\R^d\to [0,\infty)$ is a nonnegative and locally bounded potential on $\R^d$ so that for all $x\in \R^d$ with $|x|\ge 1$, $c_1g(|x|)\le V(x)\le c_2g(|x|)$…
The trace of the heat kernel is expanded in a basis of nonlocal curvature invariants of $N$th order. The coefficients of this expansion (the nonlocal form factors) are calculated to third order in the curvature inclusive. The early-time and…
