For $d\geq 2$, we establish the existence and uniqueness of heat kernels for a large class of time-dependent second order diffusion operator with jumps, which is the sum of time-dependent of a second order elliptic differential operators…

The goal of this paper is to study the action of the heat operator on the Heisenberg group H^d, and in particular to characterize Besov spaces of negative index on H^d in terms of the heat kernel. That characterization can be extended to…

We obtain sharp two-sided heat kernel estimates on spaces with varying dimension, in which two spaces of general dimension are connected at one point. On these spaces, if the dimensions of the two constituent parts are different, the volume…

We obtain an upper heat kernel bound for the Laplacian on metric graphs arising as one skeletons of certain polygonal tilings of the plane, which reflects the one dimensional as well as the two dimensional nature of these graphs.

We present an invariant definition of the hypoelliptic Laplacian on sub-Riemannian structures with constant growth vector, using the Popp's volume form introduced by Montgomery. This definition generalizes the one of the Laplace-Beltrami…

Let $(X,d,\mu)$ be a $RCD^\ast(K, N)$ space with $K\in \mathbb{R}$ and $N\in [1,\infty]$. For $N\in [1,\infty)$, we derive the upper and lower bounds of the heat kernel on $(X,d,\mu)$ by applying the parabolic Harnack inequality and the…

We derive the heat kernel for arbitrary tensor fields on S^3 and (Euclidean) AdS_3 using a group theoretic approach. We use these results to also obtain the heat kernel on certain quotients of these spaces. In particular, we give a simple,…

In this paper, we employ probabilistic techniques to derive sharp, explicit two-sided estimates for the heat kernel of the nonlocal kinetic operator $$ \Delta^{\alpha/2}_v + v \cdot \nabla_x, \quad \alpha \in (0, 2),\ (x,v)\in {\mathbb…

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…

I review certain results in harmonic analysis for systems whose configuration space is a compact Lie group. The results described involve a heat kernel measure, which plays the same role as a Gaussian measure on Euclidean space. The main…

Given a real reductive group $G$, the purpose of this paper is to show an asymptotic formula of the large-time behavior of the $G$-trace of the heat operator on the associated symmetric spaces. Together with Carmona's proof on Vogan's…

We consider the heat equation associated with a class of hypoelliptic operators of Kolmogorov-Fokker-Planck type in dimension two. We explicitly compute the first meaningful coefficient of the small time asymptotic expansion of the heat…

The heat kernel method is extended to the case of finite temperature. Special emphasis is given to the study of gauge theories. Due to the compactness of space in the Euclidean time direction (inverse temperature) the field strength cannot…

We analyze the asymptotic behaviour of the heat kernel defined by a stochastically perturbed geodesic flow on the cotangent bundle of a Riemannian manifold for small time and small diffusion parameter. This extends WKB-type methods to a…
